I'll try and whack a pic on Facebook tomorrow if I have no joy finding it online anywhere. It's not an out and out wedding outfit type dress it will have to be dressed up a bit ......on it's own it's more of a summer dress. Looks linen but it's not xx Ta Cazzles xx

	Muffy I saw a really pretty dress in Tescos at the weekend - it caught my eye as I was going passed but I was in a hurry. It was white with what looked to be blue butterflys and I thought it would look lovely for a Christening I am going to. To be honest - if you feel comfortable and good in something it shouldnt matter what the label is. I mix and match High Street, with Supermarket with Deisgner. The only consideration I make with High St clothes is how much wear do I want out of them? The prices are very reasonable and you can afford to change each season. If you like it and feel good in it - go for it is my opinion. And you are far more likely to carry a pretty dress off and be complimented on it if you feel good, than a designer you are too scared to spill something on and feel uncomfortable.

	hi muffy, you could cheat and sew different labels in, but why bother? no one sees the labels. if you feel comfortable and happy with your choice you can make it original with your own accessories. ps. enjoy the wedding. xxxxx

Never worn it again as never had anywhere nice enough to go out in, what a waste of money that was. I feel i fool as i could have got away with not spending so much money and bought other stuff. So i say go for it girl. Good for you.
