Viking Princess turns Miss Piggy - with MEGA FLASH!!!!!

Oh shush! Miss Piggy indeed....

Lovely dress and shoes my dear, you will be in it in no time!

VP, you look lovely! Beautiful dress, it really suits you

I am very positive I will be. My MOH has been doing Weight Watchers for 3 months and lost tons of weight (post-baby weight) and she said she wanted to give some support so because I can't afford to go to meetings etc at the moment, she gave me her books and stuff and we are both weighing ourselves on Tuesday (that's when her meetings are) and she'll be my "leader" and help me do it... I have lost before 4 stone on my own but it is easier with a friend!

Thanks, Mini! xxx

Thank you kindly - I'm in love with the dress now. I had a few wobbles but not anymore...

Ah, beautiful! Where are your shoes from if you don't mind me asking - they're gorgeous!

What a lovely dress. I feel your pain, my frock wont do up either but i wont let it beat me ?

You look lovely. I love your dress and the detail on it!!

my dress doesnt fit either. I have a year to slim down. So have been eating healthier, Only drinking water and doing my 30 day shred.

You will get into the dress and look even more fab than in the pics. Xx

Gorgeous Dress! Is that Gowns UK in Morley?! I live in Morley and it looks very familiar! x

OOOhhh,just lovely. Are the shoes Rainbow? I wonder if i should order half a size up as well.

Wow how stunning do you look, what a beautiful dress x

Loooooove the detail on your dress, so pretty! And it suits you perfectly. The shape really makes your waist look tiny. You'll lose whatever weight you want, so don't panic. I've tried and tried for years to slim down with no success but this year dropped 2 stone with barely any effort at all. I did Slimming World for a bit but couldn't keep up with the meetings because of childcare stuff, but still following the basic principal of making sure that every meal contains 1/3 vegetables (basically their 'super free' food), so I'm filling up on that stuff and feel naturally less inclined towards richer, calorie-laden stuff. And I've gone off booze :/

Love the dress lovely detail and shoes are so pretty too!

You look lovely!! I think the detailing on the dress is so pretty! I love the bolero with it!!

Killer shoes!! ?

SoontobeMrsB, they're called Allora from Rainbow Couture! they're £125. I love them - they're so comfy though despite the heel!

Oh yes it is indeed! Lovely June couldn't do enough for me! I love it there!

Lovely dress... is it a Ronald Joyce? x

Lovely dress - the detail is stunning and the style really suits you. Your waist looks small and your boobs look great!

Fab shoes too hun!

Haha... just seen your post on the ronald joyce post! haha x

Wow, lovely dress - love the sparkly detail. It suits you.

Good luck with the weight-loss - I found the minute I ordered my dress it spurned me on to losing weight like never before.

@SKYBRIGHT: Unless they have them in the shop you're ordering them from and you can try them on, I'd recommend ordering them online directly from Rainbow so you cans end them back if they don't fit. The beauty of rainbow is that they are amongst the very few places that still do half sizes. 5s were too big for me but 4s are too small now.

Yes, it is, Clarelou. It's Chelsea (60030) from their 2009 Collection.

hahahaha and I have just seen this post after I replied to yours!

Oh I really like your dress and the bolero and it gives you an absolutely fabulous waistline. Love the shoes too!

Thanks, Brenda! But I aim to look better to make the dress justice - it IS beautiful! Love it now!

Aw its beautiful. Similar to mine actually ?

Doesnt look like you've got that much to go until it zips up properly- you will be fine! ?

Oh wow..... You look amazing.

It's really an amazing dress. Gorgeous.

Hope you get your shoes sorted. I would definitely take them back to the shop and see what they say.

Ah hello date twin!

You look fabulous in your dress, it is so pretty! Love the detail on it as well.

I had been eyeing up those shoes too but a little out of my budget - but I feel better knowing someone will be wearing them on 23rd! xxx

UPDATE on shoes:

I managed to get them exchanged. I wrote to Rainbow Club and asked them if they could help as when my size 4 shoes arrived they were incredibly tight but the manager of the shop said she couldn't send them back as they were specially ordered (now I don't know if this was true or she just couldn't be asked to send them back) and then i emailed the manager of the shop and told her about the letter. She said that had I told her about the diamante she would have sent them back. I said I didn't know til I got home and looked at them properly. She left a voice mail and emaile me as well today to say that the Customer Services manager at Rainbow rang her and told her they're sending a 4.5 pair and when it gets in the shop, the shop manager can ring me to bring my size 4s back in and send them back...

Goes to show, if you don't ask, you don't get!

Your dress looks fab on you!!!

Believe you me, they were a bit out of my budget! Initially I was going to have the ones below ("Merlot", also from Rainbow) which were about half the price of the current ones, but I loved these so much, we literally cut our weekly shopping food budget and i put the savings towards the shoes!!! Crazy, i know!

The Merlot:

As you can see, both are very high and both have platforms, which makes them easier to wear! I am 5ft1 so I really NEEDED height! My OH is 5ft10!
