You know you're addicted when...

Thought I would actually start a thread! You know you're addicted when... ...you reject mother of the bride outfits because the necklines won't show off the beautiful necklace you want to make.



Off topic bit here. Our daughter is coming home from London, to get married in March with her bridegroom and his family. 100 folk to feed and water. We want fun, friends and family. The plan at the moment is the wedding in Gran's garden over one paddock, then a Spit roast and barbeque, then a dance. The marquee will go up on the farm and Mike's family have three florists so flowers are taken care of. At last!! They have been together a long time. Today I went looking to see what is out there for me to wear. Summer is coming and most clothing is in the shopor rushing out. No new clothes until Winter ones arrive. A lot of busypatterns or multi colours. I want teal, burgundy or blue, most seem to be pastel or harsh greens and yellows or crumpled material which will look awful in photographs. However, it is a pleasant task.



Cheers, Jan


I love that kind of addiction. Congrats on the upcoming nuptials - I'm sure you will find something smashing to wear that will set off your necklace and sparkling eyes to perfection!

Hi, Jan, Congratulations on your daughter's wedding! I don't normally recommend clothes shopping online, but I've found Coldwater Creek has really pretty clothes and they run true to size. They are also available in the colors you like. You can check them out at

They also have lots of sales. I love their jackets. I don't know if they ship to New Zealand, or how expensive that would be, however. But, their website might give you some ideas. They also have a print catalog.
