So went to London Monday and Tuesday as a suprise for my mothers 50th birthday, but couldnt resist treating myself to a few things......

http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=true&catalogId=19551&storeId=12556&categoryId=151405&parent_category_rn=42344&productId=1339915&langId=-1

but in a charm form.

both from Anna Lou of London....love her jewellery!

Faith

Kaylani at Bravissimo....quite upset I had to buy bras, was convinced I had gone down a cup size at least....lost weight, stopped the pill, but the lovely girls at bravissimo broke the news to me that I now size up at a 34GG....sigh, will they ever stop growing?! At least they go up to a K cup I suppose!

Just checked the tag on it there and it says €68! Cant believe its that much in euros especially since I just checked my online credit card statement and the dress and the cardigan only came to €83.84/£72. Just checked a few other things and cant believe how cheap I got everything for!

Spadina - dress is by jj park, so stick jj park in their search on asos and you should find it.
The jumper is Ted Baker, also stick into the search on asos.

Just bought this Tadashi dress on eBay - fantastic designer who does beautiful occasion dresses. I'm hoping to wear it to a wedding in a few weeks.

Update: This dress arrived yesterday and it is just gorgeous. The photo really doesn't do it justice at all. The skirt is a lovely taffeta silk, while the jersey top portion really flatters my bust and waist. Brilliant - I'll definitely buy more Tadashi dresses in future.

Got these boots in Fat Face in the airport on the way to my holliers. They look nicer than the pic and are really comfy.

Sorry can't seem to just upload the picture.

Got this skirt in Dunnes, the green sequin one.

I got a lovely cream shirt from the Savida range but can't find a pic.

Got this bag in Peacocks over in Gozo. Wouldn't be the type of bag I'd normally go for but looks great.

Also did a bit of a shopping spree before my holiday in Penneys but pics of those either.

Visited dorothyperkins.com

wasnt sure about this skirt until i went onto polyvore and saw it teamed up in different outfits and i was sold - only 15pounds down from 60! only realised i bought grey instead of brown now but never mind that will do nicely

figure this will be nice and cosy for winter

Well the platform would obviously help.

They're such a gorgeous colour

I find heels with a platform far more comfortable than some of the flat shoes I own.

I saw those today in BT - just lovely.

I bought these today, also from Carvela (KG) for E150 (E140 with the Shoe Room voucher that was in the Irish Times last week)

Larianne · 13-09-2009 9:12pm

You're not the first person to say that! But it's a problem I'm more than happy to live with.

So far, I've bought my dresses off ebay.com and they've been in American sizing. I've bought size 12s (UK size 14) and they fit very well. In fact, I'd say that a US 10 would do too.

If you're unsure about American sizing, here's a link to a conversion website.

I know! I never thought of going there for shoes before but think I'll be having a look in future.They have them in tan as well. For €47.50 I really should have bought them as well!
