Going to a masked ball in 2 weeks time (shudder) - haven't bought a mask yet, as I think I need to get the dress first.

Have trawled ebay, but lost the only one I liked today. Doh.... this one wide straps essential as I am 32 G & have the associated bra issues - ie, can't go without one, strapless not great, & the only ones that really do the job for me have to be designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel.

I am a size 10 everywhere else, but the norks do tend to put a spanner in the works.

Don't really want to go black. Green / turqoise / teal type colours tend to suit me - would also consider sliver or a really soft purple. I am 5'4", blonde hair, blue eyes, pale skin. Help!

Brilliant. That dress is lovely, gorgeous colour. You could do any of those colours for the mask - what colour jewellery do you wear mostly? And do you already have shoes you can wear, or will you need those too?

TheMoistWorldOfSeptimusQuench · 09/08/2007 14:33

Silver usually.

Oh yes, I really need to buy new shoes....

Well maybe go for silver or black in the mask, rather than gold, if you're going to be wearing silver jewellery. And silver (or black?) shoes?

Lovely dress!
I think prob gold or bronze shoes/
accessories would look best with that particular colour(thou black or silver also good).
Am rubbish at finding accessories thou, so will leave that to someone else...
(Cant even sort out a wedding outfit for myself!)

I really think you need to go to a shop. With big boobs and small frame you won't be doing yorself any favourrs buying form ebay

I know what you mean Beetroot, it is risky, but I know Monsoon 10s usually fit me & the ruching over the boobs looks like it could be quite, er, accommodating. Anyway, can always re-sell if necessary.

Mmm, silver shoes. Does anyone know whether Kurt Geieger still have a sale on?
