I have been bad again today. I bought new luggage. Somebody on our Cruise Meet Thread recommended Sub 0 G luggage as it is extremely lightweight. I have to make do with 20kg luggage for nearly three weeks in September and my existing suitcase weighs nearly 7kg empty. So I got a new suitcase and also a carry on bag.

We bought the same case today in Matalan for £45. It really is amazing how light they are. The material seems a bit thin but with a 10 year guarantee it's worth a try.

I love this dress. I see a trip to Marks and Spencers coming on. Somebody gave me a gift card over a year ago and I still have not spent it.

thanks ladies, we went round all the designer stuff, only one i found i liked was monsoon but at £150 and silk (so dry cleaning) couldnt justify the expense for 1 night
dress looks lovely...what colour accessories do you think? black looks too harsh so was thinking of some pink pearls.. what colour do you think and where can i get some nice ones, looked around accessorize and wasnt too impressed as was almost as expensive as the dress...lol

Hi everyone,

I am a first time poster on this thread but long time lurker. I'm off to Egypt in September so I've been mostly looking but have done some shopping.

Here's my buys:

Some jammies- these will keep me cool at night.

Towels:

Mine:http://www.disneystore.co.uk/disney-towels-minnie-mouse-towel-can-be-personalised/p/23832/300085/

Bikinis:
I find it hard to get anything bikini-wise...Im a 32J/34HH. However, Bravissimo and brastop.com are great (but expensive)

I'm also looking for a few maxi dresses, but because of my ****y problem I'm finding it hard to find ones that fit right (im a size 12 and the wangers are huge so its so difficult....any ideas?)

tbh honey, im a 34GG, so i totally understand the issue, as i normally wear a 16-18 though, i can "hide" mine better kwim??
i have 2 freya bikinis, which are v good, i wear them like a bra whilst at wdw, i find i sweat less and they hurt less, esp in the halter neck ones, as more support kwim?
i brought 2 new bras on sat at £75 which really expensive, but worth it for me, and now i know what size i am i can order onlib=ne (weight has yoyod since last measuring, though ironically size still the same
bravissimo do clothes too if youwant a maxi dress, have you tried marisota or simply be??
good luck
