we really are not doing the 'wedding thing' just going to the registry office, no guests, lunch afterwards

I really want to wear just a sweet summer tea dress kind of thing so what do you think of this

www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=20&viewAllFlag=false&catalogId=1 9551&storeId=12556&categoryId=96918&parentcategoryrn=42344&productId=743474&langId=-1

not sure on shoes yet, or if anyone has seen any other nice little summer dresses around please link

thanks

katz · 01/08/2008 22:26

do you want white?

sherby · 01/08/2008 22:26

it is gorgeous I know, but if I got that would I have to get flowers?

going to town tomorrow, could check topshop for that dress I suppose

Classy.

sherby · 01/08/2008 22:28

katz · 01/08/2008 22:29

giggle - which debenhams one? the first one i think too or the one you did?

RuffleTheAnimal · 01/08/2008 22:30

i love the original one, the topshop one. i think it'll be perfect.

splash out on nice shoes with the savings

katz · 01/08/2008 22:30

how about this newlook but still nice

sherby · 01/08/2008 22:31

frig it I might just go for this

OP posts:
sherby · 01/08/2008 22:31

actually the more I look at that the more I like it

OP posts:
RuffleTheAnimal · 01/08/2008 22:32

principles one also v nice. agree if you have a flower, one long stemmed something classy.

gigglewitch · 01/08/2008 22:32

yours. well, both tbh. worth heading to a branch for a try-on? the one i linked was strapless and they don't look as nice on skinny-minnies.(though may have some straps in a little bag that comes with it, lots of theirs do)
your one nicer

sherby · 01/08/2008 22:33

I might just order a size 10 and scoff donuts for the next two weeks

OP posts:
Lizzylou · 01/08/2008 22:33

I've ordered the Principles one in navy for my boys Christening, it's a lovely dress (but I'm a size 14)!

sherby · 01/08/2008 22:39
