:lo l: I figured you would think it was too cold!

David's and AA will probably save you a lot of money in comparison to the designers offered by the boutiques. Though, David's and AA have styles that are $$$ too! Good luck Thumbup

ETA, just looked at pricing on David's short BM dresses.. the only ones under $100 are $99 or are on sale in limited colors/sizes. Zoinks!
laugh out loud Yeah, not really cheap at David's Bridal. We're hoping to find it at a regular dress store or something, or she seems to really like Amazon, so maybe something similar on Amazon. Le Sigh.


Quote from GoHeels :
I don't know, when I'll order it. I may wait hoping for SRCs in Nov., because I won't need it until we go to NC for Christmas. If I do get it before you, I'll let you know what I think.

I like C&E stuff too, but I never see a good deal on it. Without a killer deal, I'll never have a stockpile of any brand. I'm too cheap for that. : O I buy whatever I can get the best deal on. laugh out loud
Sometimes Crabtree and Evelyn has a 15% off coupon! So that's kind of a deal, but of course, not really compared to some stuff you can get for dirt cheap! laugh out loud

Congrats again on the weight loss! I didn't realize you lost 1/2 shoe size! That's great!

And likewise, if I manage to get the dress before you do, I will let you know how it is! nod

Quote from PordaPoddy :
Mad Had to close up again for the 2x today for the Smoke . Next time I run into her, I'm going to ask her to smoke on other side of the patio since she can't take the hint when a loud sliding door and window close every single time she lights up.

The peninsula is neat, almost feels like an island with the different kind of weather and isolation. I love the shoreline! It's cliffs by me, so no pesky umbrellas mucking up photos :tee hee: . Lots of sea life too. Dolphins playing last week, totally fixed the bad day I was having. : ) I highly recommend it, higher rent might be the same price as anti-depressants and counseling : P
Did you manage to tell the neighbor where to shove it?

I agree about how animals just totally turn a bad day to a good one! There's something super relaxing about being by the beach nod I think it's a better solution than anti-depressants and counseling! nod laugh out loud

Great that she's already considering non-traditional dress sources. So much apparel qualifies for free shipping on returns from Amazon! Also, now that she has her venue nailed down- she should be able to start making decisions at a faster pace.

Found a few dresses of interest:
Strapless, definitely a royal-ish purple, plain, but not tea length, check out all the photos uploaded in the reviews! $49.99 [modcloth.com]
Check out this dress from Overstock. $89 [overstock.com]
One shoulder from 6pm.com $85.99 [6pm.com]
A dress everyone can wear again... because it can be work as a skirt! laugh out loud A little plain, but can be dressed up with jewelry/shoes $35.99 [6pm.com]
Another one, hard to tell the material quality $35.99 [6pm.com]
One shoulder satin sears.com, smallest size is a 6 but possibly an easy take-in $59.99 [sears.com]


Now don't get me wrong, I still need the counseling for sure Wink . It will take a lot of years to undo the damage from childhood Laugh .

Wow, GH! Way to go on the weight loss! How much weight did you lose, and how did you do it?

Also, great suggestions, Porda. I forwarded them onto the bride that I'm a BM for in June. We still don't have dresses picked out, but her main color is also purple.

I'm seeing 82 jewelry items in Express clearance. They must have marked a lot down today. We need 40% off clearance again.

Congrats on the weight loss again, must have been a significant change for your body to have dropped a shoe size. So great for your joints! Bummer though. I buy shoes and dresses separately, and :pray : something goes together. Usually each makes a pretty strong statement it's own, so it's hard to match a dress up with shoes without one taking away from the other.

The peninsula is neat, almost feels like an island with the different kind of weather and isolation. I love the shoreline! It's cliffs by me, so no pesky umbrellas mucking up photos :teehee : . Lots of sea life too. Dolphins playing last week, totally fixed the bad day I was having. : ) I highly recommend it, higher rent might be the same price as anti-depressants and counseling : P
Your neighbor probably doesn't even realize her smoking is bothering you. I'm sure she'll be happy to smoke on the other side, if you ask her. IME, most smokers are considerate. As a matter of fact, they're often more considerate than non-smokers are toward smokers. For the record, I've never smoked a cigarette in my life. I have encountered some incredibly rude non-smokers when a smoker was around.

I originally started losing weight to try to prolong knee surgery. I don't know how much good it's done them, but it can't hurt.

All my shoes are neutral colors. I just got a little carried away. I bought black strappy sandals, then decided I needed a closed toe pump to wear with the silver dress to the Chef's Table. I then saw a pair of black strappy sandals accented with ivory, & decided they would look great with the black & white striped dress (which is actually more black & ivory than black & white). I bought nude heels to wear with the blue & green dresses. I didn't like them with the nude dress, so I bought brown pumps. You get the idea. Blush I didn't buy any that had multiple colors, other than the black & ivory. I loved them & had to have them though.

Your view sounds perfect. Cloud9

I've always needed a 5 in length, but wore a 5 1/2 for width. Somehow, my feet are more narrow now. Confused It's really strange. I was much thinner than this in my teens & early 20s, & always needed a 5 1/2 for width.

I don't even own scales, so I don't know how many lbs. I've lost. I've lost from a size 12 to a size 2. Unfortunately, I can't put stress on my back & knees, so I've had to lose with diet alone. I count calories 6 days a week, & stay around 1,000 a day. On Sundays, I eat anything & everything I want.

I know what you mean. It would be nice to know what quantity they have left. I did purchase a sweater w/o the extra clearance, but it was one that just popped up from a return.

I can't believe the zig-zag bracelets are $7.99 now. Just my luck. Annoyed I haven't even worn mine yet. It's probably not worth a return & rebuy to save a few $.

you may be able to dot it. add a high quantity to your bag, it may tell you they don't have enough or how many they have, i'm not sure what it would say exactly.
