Sorry to bring topic back to OP, BUT...
I had 2 hours to buy outfit for wedding thingy on Saturday, walked into Wallis, walked out with green dress/tunic thingy. 5 minutes total. Leaving me with 1'55" to buy white linen trousers and large white bag.
Ta-daaa!
Love the lovely mumsnet!
Although on a different note, I nearly lamped the middle-aged sales assistant. They didn't have the perfect linen trousers in my size. But she nipped into the changing room and emerged wearing "my" outfit with, of course, the linen trousers in her size. Like, ta-daaaa, look at what you could have won! But of course I couldn't have won it because YOU, dear, have bought all the stock. And now you've rubbed my nose in it.
I looked better in it, mind.
