Mmmm steak and pepper sauce! Looks amazing!

Actually that whole meal looks yummy! Whopper and fried also sounds good! Not had a Burger King in soooo long!

And how are you anyway purpled? Everything ok? Xx
 
Yea good thanks! Had a busy day. Knackered my knee playing tennis, don't even ask how as I'm not sure but I'm hoping when I wake up in the morning the pain will have gone. I made bread today....red onion and balsamic flavour and I am constantly picking at it, between me and the OH we ate it all before it even went in the bread bin lol. Wedding plans are coming together, dreading the dress shopping mind you lol!!

Congrats on your loss, and that steak looks amazing! ^^

Glad you're well too Purple! Hope your knee feels better in the morning! Got any ideas for the dress? xx Bread sounds lush!

Thanks! Me too, although I'm doubtful lol!
I want a vintage style dress with lots of lace. My mum is buying it so we will go shopping together soon and look. I have designed a dress I like and there is a shop not too far away that can do that as well. But obviously it depends on the cost. People can go crazy an spend obscene amounts on wedding dresses but I don't think it's appropriate really. Plenty of lovely dresses that don't cost the earth.

I am a huge wedding freak. If I'm ever made redundant I'm going to open a bridal boutique/wedding planners. I can't wait to see what your dress is like. I love lace and vintage style will be amazing xxx

Thank you and I hope so too purp xx
 
Well I may need your advice. Not too sure what style of dress suits my body type. I'm 5ft 9, small waist (I can finally say that lol) my bust and hips are in proportion which must make me hourglass. I hope to be size 12 on my wedding day, although currently I am more of a small 10. I have a bust (slightly smaller than 10 months ago mind you) So hard deciding on the style. This is me about 25lbs ago... I've lost track I was a 12/14. But I'm the same shape. image-1208103620.jpgAny advice regarding the shape of the dress? Feel like I need to go in with at least some ideas.

Let me think on it and look around some styles and get back to you xxx

Thanks. Will be a bad food day again today as we went to Burger King again (it's hubby's favourite if you hadn't guessed) while we were out and I consumed my days points with a whopper and chips! But that's what my 49 weeklies are for!

Didn't buy much out shopping today but a few more bras and did the food shopping. Shattered now. Steak for tea - cant wait :)

Weeklies are very handy :0)
That's good you have more bras :0)
 
I love new bras and matching undies. Can change your whole shape getting a new bra me thinks!!

Have a great day Hun!
 
Thank you. The only matching set I have had before was my wedding undies as every set I brought before was just a bra here or there - now I have 8 matching sets. I have thrown the rest of my undies away - and it's given me much more confidence. I feel amazing in them :)
 
I love the style of this dress.

But not sure I have the body type to pull it off.I guess. Won't know until I try some on. Like i know I'm slim now but I'm still curvy and I'm not sure if this style is better for people with no curves.

I honestly looking at that picture don't think that dress will do you any favours at all. It's beautiful but on that model it looks shapeless and I think given you have an amazing figure you need to show it off. Do you have a favourite feature of your body you would want to show off? I have had a quick look at styles on my phone and think something fitter would suit you better.

You will just have to try some on and see what style you feel comfiest in though

Wow gorgeous dresses...I want the last one for me lol
 
Oh wow! Thanks for the advice? Dresses are lovely. I'm not keen on the satin/silk looking one but the rest are fab!

Maybe your right and I need to show my figure off. I'll try some on soon and let you know how it goes. Try sneak some pics for you lol!!

That site looks good too! Won't work on my iPhone so i'll look on laptop later and see what it predicts for me.

And favourite feature....it's hard lol I always think of the negative. Sad isn't it. I think my best feature is my waist....it's very defined in comparison to hips/bust and gives a woman like figure. Which I need to start believing is a good thing as I'm not a teenager anymore.

We all like different. That fabric reminds me of when I used to skate. All our costumes were silky and after wearing it for all them years I took a dislike for it lol!! I think it's a flattering fabric though.
