Bridal dress shopping is mad, isn't it? I'm sure, though, it'll work out. It always does somehow.
Your story vividly reminded me of my first go at being a bridesmaid at 17. Someone felt it necessary to make a catty comment about my body, and I thought about it for years even though I found it wasn't true. I'd love to go back in time and tell people off for making me and everyone feel self-conscious for having a body.
I hate trying on clothes at the best of times, but with loved ones and for such special events. I’m pleased no one has ever asked me to be a bridesmaid.

These things do stay with us. I’d also like to go back in time and tell people off. There’s just no need for hurtful comments.
Wow, you could almost flesh this out into a book!
I am now desperate to know if the dress fits! 😂😂😂
Haha! After all the cheese at Christmas, probably not. 😆
You have plenty of time to shift the cheese, funnily enough there is a cheeky weight loss tip in my post today… 😉 😘

Just read it! Brilliant! I might have to resort to working outdoors or, failing that, the Antarctic. 🥶😆

Being a bridesmaid is lovely. It’s the standing in your underwear and having a stranger measure you that’s not so nice. 🤣
Funny! But also painful. I lolled at 'biscuits'!
Thank you!
