Thanks nailpolish _ i did see those two too.. Quite like the first, but the black one looked like something Queen Victoria would wear up close.

What shops do you have near you?

noddyholder · 30/09/2008 15:45

I think as it is silky it will look quite shimmery at night.Colours are lovely I think you should keep it Would be ok in summer too with a tan and sandals.why did you choose it?It is quite unusual so must have 'spoke' to you

PuppyMonkey · 30/09/2008 15:48

noddy - it did speak to me. In the shop.... seems to have gone a bit quiet now though. But every time someone posts a positive comment, my hope is renewed.

Snaf, I do have all the big shops quite near me. But it's just the time element I'm a bit about. Only got lunch breaks to do it really.

Zara often quite good for cocktail-y dresses, imo. Website crapola though so can't search!

I much prefer it to the other ones that havebeen posted. I think different people suit different things.

Snaf · 30/09/2008 15:51

But if the dress spoke to you - wear it! Who cares what we think? You can always dress it up with fab heels/jewels. (And good luck for award.)

brimfull · 30/09/2008 15:52

don't like
bit frumpy

PuppyMonkey · 30/09/2008 15:53

Ah, sucks thank you Snaf and everyone else.

I won't win, I'm sure. But hey, you never know!
