That's like in our house, Mandy!!! Richard and all the kids have them - I'm odd phone out!!!

LOL, I just don't 'get' them. Even when they had their fancy IPods, I was happy with my little Shuffle. All I need in a phone is to be able to ring or text someone I don't need to know that todays Virgin flight from Manchester took off on time, which for some reason Paul does seem to need to know

I think the only app that is any good is when you hear a song and want to know who it's by, his iPhone tells him who it is

Have fun with your new toy Nat. Paul and the girls seem to have theirs super-glued to their hands most of the time

My iphone is my third hand the only time it's removed from me is at work! I love it

Corinna that dress is LUSH!! it reminds me of Auroras dress in Sleeping Beauty

That is exactly the kind of look I wanted to achieve. This is not so much for the cruises, but every October we have a Pink Halloween for a breast cancer charity at work. We are all supposed to come dressed up and the costumes have to be pink and we give a small amount of money to charity. I figured I would go as princess this year. I still have my tiara from my wedding so that and the gown will make a nice princess outfit.

I had an email this morning to let me know that it is on its way to me so it should get here well in time for the cruise.

didnt get anything my heart wasnt in it !!

Did get a new iphone though

Congratulations on my iPhone. I love mine and could no longer imagine not having one. I don't really do Apps, but do have access to my music, my emails and the internet wherever I go is a big bonus.

Hi Claire - I used www.dorothyperkins.com/cosmo and away you go! There is also free delivery on for all orders over £50

Just spotted this - thanks Gemma! I'm going to be making VERY good use of this today...

I did some cruise shopping today. I wore my evening gown on Friday and no way can I still wear that it a month time. So I ordered a new one:

Hopefully it will get here in time for the Med cruise.

Wow!!! That's stunning, Corinna!!! Fingers crossed it arrives asap... I have never had an evening gown - never even tried one on! Maybe I should think about getting one for the Med cruise in August..?

That's exactly right, Tasha!!! Methinks Corinna needs to get it in blue too!!!

It'll be perfect...

Excellent news..

Now that DOES sound good!!! I'll tell Richard to get that one...

I just love dressing up. I never had an evening gown until we booked our first cruise, but I jumped on this opportunity. Incidentally, that evening gown was the same style, but powder blue and I also have the same one in gold. Unfortunately neither fits anymore. I am not too upset about the gold one and will donate that one to a charity shop, but I am considering having the blue one altered as I love it so much.

Lovely photos Corinna, I'm hoping to invest in a gown for the Panama Canal crossing, but I just don't know if they're really 'me' or if I'd feel comfortable in one

Eeeeek! I just ordered a load of stuff off DP.com thanks to Gemma's 20% discount code!

However, can anyone who has used it tell me when the 20% actually comes off?! It said it would be applied at checkout, and it did appear at the bottom of my order but the money didn't actually seem to come off?! I've just got my confirmation e-mail and I've been "charged" the full amount Or do they wait until they've confirmed your order to take the money off? I've sent an e-mail to Customer Services anyway!

Anyway, I ordered this lot:

And just a couple of vest tops in the 3 for £12 offer (can never have too many!):

Although I might have to cancel my order if the discount doesn't come off!

Also, for anyone interested New Look are starting a 10% off promo from Monday 22nd to 28th March. Use code ODE82X. However, I think I might wait as there's a 20% off promo going on 9th-11th April for anyone willing to wait!

 

[scottishgirl87]

Argh! Think I've just realised what has happened! Because I've ordered 3 £5 tops for £12 it's taken that off instead of the 20% But even if I paid £15 for them with 20% off it would make it £12 anyway

They've replied to my e-mail saying if it's to do with a promotion code I won't get a specific reply. This is what it says:

If you have been given a promotion by use that has not worked, we will refund you the discount you are entitled to as soon as we can. Please not, you can only use one promotion per order. We are not responsible for any codes published on any discount code websites or blogs, as these sites are not part of Arcadia Group Ltd.

So do I sit tight for a few days and see what happens?!

Gorgeous butterfly top and I like the vest tops
