    Danielle I have sent you a friend request :) yes they are fab quality. The girls haven't tried them on yet as waiting for the last one so they can try them on together, but they are really well made and have a full-length underskirt which is nice and thick :)

    Thank you ladies xx

    Had a response from L1ttl3 M1str3ss, they are not restocking the peach maxi dresses until mid March, so I have decided to order the 'nude' or what could be peach from Dotty Ps. If it's not the right colour I can always just get a refund and wait for the LM direct stock. If it is nude and not peach, it might even turn out that I like the nude anyway... So we will see. My BM can always just try the nude one on anyway so we can get an idea of the final look and also sizing x

    Yeah we will see :) it's not that I don't like the nude but I'm just worried it will be too pale against the other colours.. But you can never tell the true colour from a picture, so it might be that it's perfect! X

    Just had the following response from DP... Fingers crossed!

    Dear Lauren,
    Thank you for your query received 23 January 2015.
    The LM team at DP have confirmed that this dress is a peach colour. It should be the same dress as the dress advertised on the LM website.

    Just picked up the dress. It is nude and not peach but it does look peachy/pinky so I'm thinking I will keep it. I have popped pics in my album.. What do you think? Do you think it's too light compared to the others or do they go well together? Not the best light because the lighting in the spare room isnt very good lol xx

    Ahh thank you ladies :)

    I am going to see how I feel when I can see them in the daylight but pretty sure I'm going to keep hold of the nude one. I might order the peach one when it comes back into stock just to double check. It would be too late to return the nude one then but I could always sell it on if I need to. Happy for the time being :) x

    Thinking of making my own bouquets. Thinking of having gypsophila with the appropriate coloured roses for the girls to match their dresses, then I would have gyp and a mixture of all the different colours.

    Yeah it is the nude one but it does have a light peachy pinky look to it.. it's a bit lighter than the picture portrays, but I do like it and it does look good with the others. I think I will still order the peach one whenever it comes back into stock just to make sure... otherwise I will always be thinking 'but what if the peach one is better?'. If I want to keep the peach one I will just have to sell the nude one on as will be too late to return! But I'd rather be 100% happy!! x

    Yeah they all say they love them :) I've assigned them their colours as well which they are happy with.

    I'm having problems with one of the girls.. she says she loves her dress, but she's a major worrier and she's been saying she hopes it looks as good on her as it does on the hanger. The thing is they are bog standard maxi dresses, I'm not asking them to wear anything whacky or risky.. if a standard chiffon maxi dress doesn't suit any of them then I've no idea what would. She also said they would need petticoats as she could see a label through the dress (I don't know what she's on about???), they are fully lined so not needed. Then she said the boob area definitely looks to big - I've already said I'm happy to get alterations done nearer the time. And she said she wants to wear a proper bra with clear straps.. that's a MUST for her.. I bit my tongue lol but I don't want her wearing that as will look awful in the photos if the light catches the straps. The other girls picked up on her being a bit annoying and told me to just ignore her.

    Sorry that turned into a bit of an essay!!

    She is probably just being paranoid because you actually have the dress now. Once she tries it on she will probably be fine and she will probably realise she shouldn't wear clear straps, maybe send her photos of strapless bras to help her out a bit? I think they are right though you just need to ignore her x

    Thanks :) always good to be in with a shot haha.. the honeymoon would certainly be welcome!!

    I thought I was a worrier but she really is quite bad. She's also been sacked as a bridesmaid once before.. I wonder why lol. Love her to pieces but she can be hard work. I'm sure she will be fine once it's on (hopefully)! The thing is she's not even that big breasted so she doesn't NEED the support of a proper bra.. there are lots of strapless bras that would do a great job. To be honest if my boobs were her size I probably wouldn't even wear one as the dresses are padded and structured round the boob area anyway (as you can see). I will worry about that muchhhh nearer the time anyway! x

    Another of my bridesmaids lives in London so desperately trying to get her to make plans to come back home for a weekend sometime soon! She works weekends so will need to take the time off.. really want them to all be together when they try them on though, wouldn't feel the same with someone missing x
