I wish I could decide what to wear! I'd decided on a black dress, but now I'm thinking of a long tunic top with cropped jeans and a pair of long boots I bought years ago and have only worn twice!

I bought a dress a few weeks ago for a wedding evening do that I didnt end up going to. I was going to take it back but my friend told me to keep it as we have a nightmare everytime I want a dress.
Due to the fact I have been so skint these last few years I have taken my dresses back after wearing them saying there is a fault and getting my money back.....the shame
This is the first dress I have bought and kept in the last 4 years!!
Back to square one but what dunt kill you makes you stronger!!
What can I say? Not done it myself as I have worn what I have bought, but I don't blame you!

Oh I wore them then took them back saying the zip stuck and mess with the zip.It become a bit of a joke with the people that know me and was even part of a speech at a formal dinner a few month ago, I nearly died with shame but laughed it off.
I think I have about exhusted most Debenhams branches from Lincs to Yorkshire, I must be the most unfortuate person as far as Debenhams are concerned with zips on frocks!!
But at £100 a frock for a formal dinner before Christmas it was that or pressies!!

I still have clothes in my wardrobe that don't fit me with labels still on, pre-IVA days were taken with shopping for stuff that I was always going to wear when I slimmed down, needless to say they still sit there!
This party is going to be so good for all of us x
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.
Join the club Lesley - I can offer a selection in six different sizes in my wardrobe, and it doesn't help when hubby says "Get rid of that it will never fit you again" either!
Melanie I will be honest with you though, collating this outfit for the Walsall do has given me lots of satisfaction and it all started around a top from Primark for £6.00 I think it was, I had the skirt already along with the sandals I plan to wear, I've jazzed the outfit up with jewellery from Primark and a belt from New Look, prior to IVA I would have spent a lot more than I am doing for the evening in Walsall and not thought twice about it. When I look back I cringe.

I kept my last lot of smaller clothes (fortunately!) and so was able to wear them as I lost the weight. However they are now too big!
It's Asda cheap trousers for work and Asda cheap jeans with old T shirts for at home.
I shall be going through the old wardrobe to see what I've got for Walsall.
