    Crushing disappointment. I out-boob this dress by just enough to put me between sizes :(

    Oh no! I hate that :(

    spinscribble, I love the red!!

    I do like the mauve one, but I know that the fit might be a bit awkward (well, for me, I'm busty and high necks can be a nightmare without a super dee duper wonderbra... both so pretty!!

    thats the thing i was thinking too, although i had a sports bra on and it looked alright.

    both have nice fabric too. gah...

    This is all rainbow kirby's fault, making me click into Awear boutique! I have shoes that would be fab with the blue one for my godson's Christening, sigh, at least it's the cheapest of the three!

    I want the second and third ones you've linked there :eek:

    Incidentally, I get paid tomorrow...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,729 ✭✭✭Acoshla


    See I kinda know the second two mightn't suit me because I have rather large boobies and am thinking the shape might squish them into one big booby, which nobody wants.

    But then I have a pair of shows that would be fab with the floral one....curse you rainbow.

    Crushing disappointment. I out-boob this dress by just enough to put me between sizes :(

    Today I was shopping and I underboobed (does that make sense?!) pretty much every dress I tried on :( They fit perfect everywhere else but my stupid small boobs are just stupid and...small!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    Medium-sized boobs for all! :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,727 ✭✭✭reallyrose


    I'm sad because when I'm normal weight + one stone, my boobs are AWESOME.
    But at normal weight they suck. :(

    But normal weight + one stone I look preggers. D:

    No matter how much weight I lose/put on my boobs stay the same. And any contraceptive pill I've been on didn't make any difference either...BOO!


    In other news...I want this! http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/ie/en/zara-S2011/61158/428501 But it seems to be out of stock or something :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,000 ✭✭✭spinandscribble




  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,729 ✭✭✭Acoshla


    WANT :eek:

    It's in Swamp with a different belt for at least a tenner cheaper.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,691 ✭✭✭Lia_lia


    Oh oh also discovered JEANS THAT FIT ME! I find it impossible to find jeans to fit me well. UNTIL today I went into French Connection. Only ones that don't give me a ridiculously saggy arse :D And the length is perfect too :) Gonna save my tips for the next few weeks and get a couple of pairs next time I'm in Cork :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    That AWear dress with the hearts is absolutely ruined by the ugly zip at the back. Pity because when I saw the front I fell in love.

    You're so lucky! I started going to the gym properly a few months ago and while I wasn't planning on losing weight, I did and I practically have no boobs left now! They were the first to go! Stupid boobs!

    That happens to me when I lose weight too, I always lose it from my boobs first and my stomach last, I look ridiculous!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,000 ✭✭✭spinandscribble


    completely weird maybe but i've been googling and looking at etsy shops with those japanese style 3d cases for phones. They can be just a few sparkles/decorations or completely OTT like this one
    il_570xN.247090152.jpg

    They're so weird and ultra girly but a part of me would love to have one for a laugh lol


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,722 Mod ✭✭✭✭Twee.


    Oh I think they are fab! It's called "Deco Den" and you can get the bits and pieces on eBay and some other sites. My mate got a load of stuff and has given the deco den treatment to nearly everything she owns!

    thanks! I was typing bling cases into search engines!

    Might have to do one myself, the prices are outrageous!

    That's lovely, but woah didn't realise how expensive they were! I was thinking that the individual bits and pieces were pricey, but much less than the pre-made! My mate says nail glue is the good for sticking them on.

    This site is amazing, she has deco den nails as well! Full Moon.

    Etsy have some cool pieces as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,000 ✭✭✭spinandscribble


    I think I'd wanna make my own now that I know how dear they are. Plus it would be unique and fun.

    I actually got deco den nails done when I was in hong kong, just had NO idea what they were called, just knew they were amazing. I kept seeing them on all the girls and wandered into a mall where everything was deco den this and that, blythe dolls (which i also love) and nails/fashion. The girls in the nail place had no english but eventually i got what I wanted lol. Heres a pic
    picture.php?albumid=308&pictureid=1590

    Had to try and get them refilled back home. The nail technicians in the place i went to all came over and were saying they hoped they'd catch on here. They're so cute. Really tempted to get them over here in edinburgh since i found a few chinese nail salons but what with my art work, my nails wouldn't last long :(


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,722 Mod ✭✭✭✭Twee.


    They look fabulous! Apparently one of the few things that aren't over priced in NYC is manicures! I shall be treating myself! I wonder if I could find a place that would do deco den :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,000 ✭✭✭spinandscribble


    definitely, go to china town :P yeah nail salons are mostly reasonable in the states, I could afford it over there lol.

    post pics if you get them!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,729 ✭✭✭Acoshla


    Those nails are fab, I can't wear anything on my nails for work though, sucks, I have so many pretty nail varnishes! I don't have an iPhone but might have a look around the house and see if there's anything I can do that to :D


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,722 Mod ✭✭✭✭Twee.


    Haha anything with a flat surface in your house better watch out :p I suggest the remote control :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,000 ✭✭✭spinandscribble


    from looking online last night, you can deco den anything! compact mirrors, picture frames, back of hairbrushes and any mobile that you can buy a case for.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,713 ✭✭✭✭Novella


    I want nails like those!

    Finally got around to booking a hair cut! This Wednesday afternoon, and I'm going out that night so I'm gonna ask for a lovely big blow dry :D So excited!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    I think our lives are beginning to mirror each other's lives! I'm also getting a haircut on Wednesday afternoon. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,691 ✭✭✭Lia_lia


    I really must get my hair done too. It's too long. But my hairdresser is on holidays for another week and a half...boo!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,195 ✭✭✭✭Michellenman


    Does anyone know if hard/soft water can affect your skin?

    My skin has gone crazy in the last week, I've been spot free for the last 5 months and now I've broken out like crazy. My diet/exercise, cleansing etc are all the exact same. The only difference is I'm now in Ireland and I'm not getting as much sunlight as I was in the previous couple of months..

    It's sore, almost like hormonal acne, and it's only on my chin too..

    ^ Whenever I move countries my skin goes to shit. My Dad lives in France and whenever I go/return from there...bad skin! Was in Germany for a month last year and the whole time I was over there my skin was terrible again. Could be purely coincidental...but I think not!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,195 ✭✭✭✭Michellenman


    Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing. Although, it didn't happen as bad at Christmas time when I was in Ireland. Also, it doesn't get bad and then improve in france, it just improves.. Annoying, either way! :mad:


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,722 Mod ✭✭✭✭Twee.

    Haha no way, we'll be only fabulous before our big moves :D

    The hairdresser I wanted wasn't available, so I've taken a chance on a senior stylist recommended by the receptionist. I must have sounded like a mad woman to the receptionist, explaining why I need a really good hairdresser. "MY HAIR IS LONG AND CURLY AND IT NEVER GETS CUT RIGHT PLEASE GIVE ME SOMEONE REALLY GOOD THANK YOU" :pac: The last guy I went to was fantastic, he left my hair to air dry for a bit, without combing, before even going near it with a scissors, so he could see the shape and how the curls fall. Best cut I ever had!

    reminds me of my hairdresser, treating each head of hair as unique. sHE spents a good deal of time asking questions about my scalp/wash patterns, how it looks at different times of the day and trying to figure out different styles i can do based on the cut (up dos, down dos).

    Can I ask where you saw/got this info please hun?

    I wonder if they've extended the voucher because of the problems some people we having trying to get through to the Galligan group to get appointments.

    I definitely wouldn't go near the Galligan group after the trouble I had trying to get through to them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,766 ✭✭✭squeakyduck


    I popped into them after work today. They are booked solid this week. She said to get weekend or evening appointments was like gold dust!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,900 ✭✭✭rannerap


    I havent used up mine yet because I was having trouble booking :( im gonna book mine for near the end of the month I think!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,595 ✭✭✭The Lovely Muffin


    Just seen this article about Frankie Sandford from The Saturdays.

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1393885/Frankie-Sandford-The-Saturdays-appears-overdone-fake-tan.html

    Her fake tan is way over done.:eek: I'd love to know what tan she used so I can avoid ever using it :eek: :o

    article-0-0C62C73400000578-804_468x737.jpg

    Found this other pic of her, she looked much better.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,713 ✭✭✭✭Novella


    Holy crap, around her collar bones is practically black! :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,000 ✭✭✭spinandscribble


    when i saw the first picture i though she was black, big shock seeing the second.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,109 ✭✭✭QueenOfLeon


    For their calendar apparently...they're all looking a bit over-orange though so at least she won't be too out of place! :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,095 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    I thought she was actually black (no idea who anyone in the Saturdays actually is). Then reminded me of that episode in Friends where Ross gets the layers and layers of tan put on, making him look 'puerto rican'. I remember laughing so hard at that!


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 9,722 Mod ✭✭✭✭Twee.


    Gonna be AFK for a few days, leaving for the airport in ONE HOUR :D Holy crap I am so excited! :D:D
