    I'm going to 3 debs this year including my own. (I feel so popular!)

    I was in town yesterday and I saw girls going into several different shops trying on dozens of dresses.
    I just popped into Suit Co. (Great shop would recommend) bought the first one I tried on and was done in about 20 minutes, perfect!
    Ah the benefits of being a guy!
    And I bet you never even considered whether you should buy different suits for the different debs because you really couldn't go to three in the same suit! :pac:

    Didn't even think of that.... What if people noticed?! I would just die of embarrassment! :P

    you would be known as same suit guy for the rest of your life.

    What about canes and top hats?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,763 ✭✭✭finality

    I think you definitely need a new top hat for each debs, there's no getting away with top hat repeating, but it's ok to use the same cane.

    Maybe I'm just extremely lazy, but why bother with more than one suit? THEY'RE ALL SO SIMILAR. :pac:

    Also the third tag on this thread I just saw it there, omg hahaha.

    I agree with Patchz. One cute suit would suit.

    I'm wearing heels to my debs but not a chance am I going to be able to wear them all night! My cousin brought little fold-up pumps in her bag to her debs a few years ago, but I cant find them anywhere! Any ideas as to where i should look?

    http://www.rollasole.com/ you can get them on here but shipping is a bit steep, I saw them in New Look recently if you have one near you? They fold or roll up really well though, if you have the money I'd get them!

    Thanks :D I'll check new look next time I'm there!

    Does anyone know where to buy pimp canes from?


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,509 ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn


    From a pimp? :pac:

    /ducks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,428 ✭✭✭Talib Fiasco


    I got mine at the local cattle mart. Apparently they're all the rave with them. Pimp slapping the livestock around the field so that the produce is in abundance and will make a big profit. Farmers created pimping!!!

    You have a thing for farmers?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,428 ✭✭✭Talib Fiasco

    Or livestock??? Ah no too far my bad :(

    My grads is tomorrow actually. Little nervous/anxious for it. Don't know what to expect. Ours has been so...I wouldn't say poorly...but scatteredly (that's not a word is it?) organised...should be good though to see everyone together again for the final time. Get to see what everyone's gonna be doing with themselves this year... Although I'm dreading seeing some people from the year that I secretly hate with a burning passion and wish would just get rejected at the entrance for being too drunk and immature. They're probably gonna be on the dole this year so you can all go figure :D

    I didn't do any of that either, I did it myself (no tan though, pale and interesting bb :P ). It's so much money and I don't think I'd have looked any better anyway :L

    virtual 5! yeah, i kind of have a natural tan from all the adventures climbing trees when i was little. well a tan by Irish standards, i defy the laws of gingerism (well it's more of a reddish brown but to take part in ganter; ginger banter, with fellow gingers i claim to be one). . pale is the new tan ;) and ya don't have to worry about tan coming off on your dress :D

    Hi there,

    I'm only going into 6th year but I've a few questions on my mind about the debs that I'd like to get answered. On the day, are you supposed to bring the debs girl to your house or you go to theirs? What do you do in the house when you go to hers or her to yous? I heard your supposed to take a picture, so where do you take it? cuz i've no camera haha. I'd like her to be kept away from my family, embarassing...if ye no what I mean. That's all on my mind...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,428 ✭✭✭Talib Fiasco


    Just after getting ready for my grads. The waistcoat and cravatte look well but for some reason I'm not looking forward to this much. I know it's gonna be a good laugh and I'll have a great time with my friends but for some reason I'm just feeling completely bleh about it all. I went onto facebook there and loads of people were posting stuff like piss up on now later etc. and I can't help but think 'Oh god he/she is gonna be there'. I know I probably sound so stuck up but I dunno it's just my gut feeling. They won't ruin the night for me god no but I'd just rather they stayed outside the hotel all night :L

    Oh and I've decided I'm only gonna have one or two drinks. My friends would only end up nagging me if I wasn't drinking any at all but still I might stick to one drink. So sick of alcohol tbh :P
    And I'm gonna miss the after party because I've to be up in Limerick tomorrow to sort out my accommodation. In a way I'm glad I'll be missing that...

    Alright I better go :) Wish me luck lollollol

    Usually, it's "tradition" that the boy picks up the girl, where youl probably be forced to pose for a multitude of cameras and maybe get a glass of champagne and some grub :) you can then either take her, or if you dont drive get a limo (which are VERY pricey) or get your parents to take you back to your house, or else arrange to meet up with your friends and their dates before ye head off to the venue :) But honestly, ye can just arrange whatever's most comfortable and easy for you and your date..:) have fun!

    What's the deal with limos and Hummers?
    My school is getting a bus up to the venue.
    Or do people take the limo to the school?
    Can I not just walk? :)

    Might be a different situation outside of my county, but the only people who got a Hummer rather than take the bus from my school were travellers. :pac:
