Was going to say its a bit much for someone elses wedding, bit too look at me! So have you given up on the galaxy dress idea can we just suggest blue dresses now?

LittleMissBliss · 05/03/2008 14:58

Still think this is the closest you'll find to what you want. What size are you? If you don't mind me asking be easier to find something that'll suit. I need something to do. Ds is asleep and i'm fed up with flippin ironing.

Beetroot · 05/03/2008 15:22

I am a size 12.

that dress would not suit me

needs to be sassy

given up on the blue dress for now

Beetroot · 05/03/2008 15:56

OP posts:
CountessDracula · 05/03/2008 16:03

get similar coloured bra

bundle · 05/03/2008 16:04

cd I think that dress is beautiful. the backview isn't too flouncy either

Beetroot · 05/03/2008 16:05

OP posts:
CountessDracula · 05/03/2008 16:10

ok well replace straps with wider ones?
I hate those little straps too as I have big shoulders

VictorianSqualor · 05/03/2008 16:13

Wear a strpless bra?
Or one of those ones with seethrough straps.
At east it's only the front to worry about, not the back as well.

CountessDracula · 05/03/2008 16:14

How about this

CountessDracula · 05/03/2008 16:15

neck too high?

bundle · 05/03/2008 16:15

Beetroot · 05/03/2008 16:18

CountessDracula · 05/03/2008 16:23

bundle · 05/03/2008 16:29

Heathcliffscathy · 05/03/2008 16:49

cd, i hate the blue one you linked to: really old fashioned imo, sort of come dancing esque.

by contrast I love the monsoon maxi and you can SO carry off a maxi beets, you have the body.
