I FINALLY managed to find my underwear for the wedding today! I know I have 8 months to go but I've been looking for a strapless bra for ages and managed to find one that is pretty and is supportive too - being a bigger busted girl its taken me a while to find one that makes my puppies look good! :o)
So thats one thing sorted but I now have an undies-related question - is it absolutely necessary to wear tights or similar under your dress? I really don't want to be faffing with them falling down etc but don't want to have to wear a suspender belt either! How many of you lovely ladies are going tight-less? I don't know whether I'll be more comfortable with or without them...hmm.....
Thanks girls xx

I'm also toying with this idea, i don't want to have to hoist them up every other spin but my dilemma is that im wearing a tea length dress so the other option is to have a spray tan done

Me hell no...I hate tights/stockings always have done.
Just having fake tan and thats it. xx
I have a gorgeous husband!
2 brilliant wonderful boys, a wonderful life

Now making our house a home. Blessing 2014.

thats an option i suppose - do i even need a fake tan with a floor length dress? I don't think adam wants me to have one - I'm naturally very pale and he's worried it will make me look weird and 'not myself' xx

I am pale so have asked just for a pale golden glow. The lady did me a test patch on my wrist and its only about a shade darker than what I am and really natural. I was quite surprised as I've never had fake tan before. xx

ooh I'll have to give that a go then! I'll have a practice one before the proper one and see what I think :o) I don't want to be so pale that I'm the same colour as my dress!

I was going to go for suspenders or maybe even hold ups would be an idea if you don't fancy the hassle of suspenders or tights?
CommentAuthorLaura4Alex
Have a look at rigby and peller x

hold ups are a possibility although I struggle with them too! this sounds awful but I'm a big girl and I find that my thighs are probably too big for them and I feel like they're going to fall down. Its possibly my imagination!
Nicole - I got it from La Senza - its their bridal strapless bra. I don't know what size you need but I got a 38DD (am usually a 36E but their back sizes are a little small for me) and it fits beautifully. She did say before I tried it on that I'd probably need a smaller cup size than normal because they're big fitting but it was fine. Its all lacy and pretty - I'm just pleased because I got one that fits and its still a bridal one :o)
