    Picked this up today in Topshop. It is crazy flattering! I'm never one for cleavage, but this dress is working for me! Might even buy a new bra to wear with it :D

    That's a lovely dress Twee - was it expensive? Just checked the topshop site but couldn't find it!


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,721 Mod ✭✭✭✭Twee.


    It's sold out online, and in Liffey Valley! I got it in Stephen's Green today, was €55, not too bad I don't think.
    If you wanted to ring ahead a store to check availability I can give you the line number. They'll hold for a day or two, and no obligation to buy of course.

    When you call, describe it as an animal print long sleeve jersey dress (not the chiffon one, there's a similar one in stock atm in a chiffon type), and that the line number is 10N10XBLK. You can get the numbers on Topshop.com under stores and then "Eire".

    Awh no! Keep an eye on the Back in Stock section on the website. It's still pretty new so it could come in again.

    I got a hat similar to this in Dunnes Stores yesterday for €6 euros.

    This is the first thing I've bought for myself in AGES! Picked it up at a Christmas market here. This woman had a whole stall of jewellery, hair pieces, pins and bags made from cool things. Some were made from dolly-mix, others from coca-cola bottle caps, others from juicey fruit chewing gum packets, they're all fab! That's actual real colouring pencils, they've been lacquered and polished :)

    This arrived today and it's absolutely brilliant! It's not too heavy but it's really warm and the hood is huge :D:D

    So glad it finally came, my leather lacket isn't cutting it with all this snow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,458 ✭✭✭CathyMoran


    phasers where did you get that coat? Not useful for me at the moment but would buy it for next winter. I still find it hillarous that my husband got his duffle coat in Lisbon at the end of summer - would love a nice one too. There is a lovely purple one in Benneton but can not justify the price :(

    its €69 but theres 20% off in store at the minute so I got it for €55.20 or you can print off a 25% off voucher from their website. They only have the dress in "flagship" stores though so not in the small concession ones in debenhams etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Oops! Got it here, was about €40. normally I wouldn't reccommend eBay but I can vouch for this one! They have every size going too so no one is left out :pac:

    What's the sizing like? How does xs/s/m/l/xl correspond to 8/10/12/14/16 etc? If you've any idea that would be brilliant, I'm so close to buying it! :D haha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Sizing is pretty accurate, I'd say that the S is a 10, M is a 12 and the L is a 14, etc. I thought it'd be tiny because it was coming from Asia but it was really accurate.

    There's measurements at the bottom of the page though for real accuracy!

    Thanks! I took my measurements (using a piece of wool and a 6inch ruler ha!) and from those measurements I was between a M and L. I ordered the L anyway, I'd normally take between a 10 and a 12 but sure if its too big I can have it altered but I can't really do that if its too small. Thanks by the way, I was looking for a new coat! :D How long did delivery take for you? I had it sent to Ireland just in case because I'm home from France for Christmas in about 2 weeks.

    I'm tempted to order one of these dresses off that seller - the feedback is kinda mixed on them though!

    Sorry for off topic post!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    I always size up with coats anyway, you're gonna be wearing them over stuff so you need room :D

    Delivery for me took about 3 weeks, I dunno if it will vary because of Christmas though!

    Edit: that dress is adorable ams!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,105 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle
