Yeah, sure you can

oops, been busy this weekend, sorry! time to catch up with my fashion consulting

ruthie... first one, STUNNING

second, pretty but sort of half hearted if you see what i mean. not enough froth for it to be extravagant and the shape is too basic for that type of dress. nice colour though.

third, very pretty beading

not sure if it might look too heavy on such light fabric, but you'd have to see it in the flesh.

fourth, love the colour

and the bodice is gorgeous. slight meringue thing going on but that's ok, it's a ball

fifth, really like this (esp if you get the date thrown in, hehe

)

as for leece's wedding... i'll PM you or chat on msn... is it ceremony/reception or both, weather etc... we'll discuss it soon

ruthie · Apr 19th, 2004, 01:23 PM

Both. Thanks Clare.

finally found this thread in the depths of OT&B!

anyway, was just going to add that i saw some amazing dresses in selfridges in london on saturday, by jenny packham, i hadn't heard of her before but might be worth keeping an eye out in department stores etc.

also, morgan are doing very versace-esque dresses atm, at a much lower price of course

that concludes my fashion advice for the day lol!!

You can try! However, I bet you Beanie will disappear to the ground floor's Gent's department to shop on his own

Stu may be more of a gent and stay with you

Selfridges beats the Knightbridge two hands down IMHO

A lot less snooty, much friendlier, and it has an excellent food hall

And I can reach it from Russell Square on the No. 7 bus

Nah, too early, however, Beanie may spy on things he wants to get during the sale

Somehow, I don't think he is that stupid or desparate to go anywhere near Selfridges during a sale

Hey,

Blooming uncomfortable though

Red Dwarf · May 17th, 2004, 09:59 PM

Jessica Rabbit....... is it hot in here, or is it me!

I'm trying to see if I could get a custom made waistcoat with the Red Dwarf logo on the back, but not having much luck so far.
