May 2011 - what have you bought this month?

Sparkly - I love that dress. Have been looking at it in store but it looks nothing like that on the hanger

Am guessing I am too fat / curvy for it though

Bluebabe, do you mean my blue Gap one or the M&S one I was suggesting for Minky?

Your blue Gap one

Sparkly, that GAP dress is just gorgeous.

No idea what size you are BB but it's incredibly forgiving on.... the drapes end just below the tummy area and it's loose-ish at the back too, skims the bum and that's it. Honestly, give it a go! I actually fell in love with it in the shop before seeing it online and think it's way nicer irl.

Sorry peeps I know I'm being a total gusher here

but it's not often I find something I really like that's not ridiculously expensive!

Gush away!

So glad you're pleased with your dress sparkly, it's lovely when something you love fits just right.

I took advantage of the free Netaporter shipping that ended last night and bought some accessories.

This white watch, which i thought would look cute for summer with brights and colour blocked outfits:

And a case for my MacBookPro to use when we go away on holiday:

Fab buys, PiP, you won't lose that case in a hurry

Sparkly, you're making me regret not buying that dress

**Bluebabe75** · 05-05-2011, 01:58pm

Thanks Sparkly. Tried it on and it didn't work - top half looked great in the smaller size but too tight over my hips, and when I tried the large it was too big on top. At least I won't obsess about it now

Oops

popped out to get my lunch and came back with this RI Vest which I hope will look nice with denim or white in the summer and my navy shorts.

Skims nicely over le bump too!
