    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.

    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!

    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!

    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: 1,877 ✭✭✭stripysocks85


    Had bought this and was waiting for it to come, and A Wear emailed me today to say it was out of stock!! :( Don't know if it would have fit me properly anyway.

    So I won this on eBay instead for €21. It's Warehouse, and I don't know what their sizes are like, but I'll give it a try. Simple and plain black dress :)

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


    The platform helps with heels that high

    You lucky thing! I'm terrified of high heels. They look great but I can't walk in them at all. Scared of injuring myself..ha!

    I was looking at them but I thought I'd get more wear out of the plain black. They are gorgeous though.

    Practise around your house. That's what I do. Get my groove on in the bedroom ha!

    I'm 5'1 so if i wore flats I'd get lost on a night out.

    My new Vera Wang shoes. So comfortable to walk in. And I'm not great for heels lately. Needed a nice new pair of plain pumps so delighted with them. Got them in Kohls for only $50!

    I bought this NYX make-up artist kit in TK Maxx today, I was looking at them for awhile and decided today was the the day :D It was originally 20 euro but they were selling off a few others that had been damaged for a fiver so I went a took a peek.
    868711b0620abd928db9453c399559b1_10886064.jpg

    I picked up this one and apart from the clasp broken on the slide out eyeshadow lid, one broken eyeshadow, the grubby looking applicators and a bit of blusher dust there was nothing wrong with it.
    cc45bb16e42ce89247d0717c3bdc25e0_10886225.jpg
    One broken eyeshadow but the rest are perfect :D

    6e5e0df88d7d5e911324f2ea23cd2ad3_10886254.jpg
    The grubby applicators which I threw out as I have no need for them and the side where the eyeshadow panel should slide out.

    This is a picture before I gave it a nice clean the blusher dust makes it look so dirty but with a bit of kitchen roll it shined it up lovely :D I am very happy with my find!

    I was so shocked when I saw the price I thought I was dreaming, it's basically all new I managed to get the eyeshadow panel to slide back into place to there's no faults :D Such a steal.

    For anybody who was wondering I purchased it in TK Maxx in Kilkenny :)

    Thanks for the heads up :)

    I ordered perfume off Cheapsmells.com. Hopefully it doesn't take that long to deliver or else my sister will be going without a Christmas present.
