this not dissimilar but maybe still too much flesh on show...?

CountessDracula · 19/06/2008 18:07

yy I didn't see big norks until after I had posted that first red one!

belcantavinissima · 19/06/2008 18:07

so you want a metallic look?

belcantavinissima · 19/06/2008 18:09

oh that lilac one is nice too. would i be able to get some kind of bra thng to wear underneath??? not worried about showing what i've got re flesh showing but dont want one of my ample norks to accidentally fall out lol

belcantavinissima · 19/06/2008 18:10

belcantavinissima · 19/06/2008 18:14

what about this one?

OP posts:
belcantavinissima · 19/06/2008 18:15

cd- the bright red tiered one lol

OP posts:
CountessDracula · 19/06/2008 18:16

the orange and pink one?
I think it has a certain je ne sais quoi

belcantavinissima · 19/06/2008 18:16

hmm tho the one i linked to isnt really going to show off my best assets is it?

OP posts:
CountessDracula · 19/06/2008 18:16

I think if you have a waist you should flaunt it really

belcantavinissima · 19/06/2008 18:18

yes youre right. i think maybe i need to just have a dreaded trawl round the shops trying stuff on. always worried about getting wedding stuff from monsoon and coast as you just know thats wher everyone goes for such clothing .would be mortified if anyone wore the same thing.

OP posts:
Tutter · 19/06/2008 19:41

look, i don't like it

at all, but am trying to stay with the brief

Tutter · 19/06/2008 19:45

this, on the other hand, i do lioke

but it's much more £££ than the other options

hullygully · 19/06/2008 19:46

Why do you want a dress that looks like a ra-ra skirt fgs? If you're 5' 8" ish and a size 12 you can wear anything and look great so what's with these weird dresses?!

belcantavinissima · 20/06/2008 09:56

oh tutter that second one is nice. tho if i am spending that much i would want totry before i buy and we dont have a whistles

hullygully- i dont necessarily want a rara skirt. just want to find a nice pretty frock that might make me look you know ok

hullygully · 20/06/2008 18:22

Flounces won't do it. But then I like terribly plain, what do I know?
