    Ladies have any of you bought dresses from dresses.ie or any of the online shops?

    Been looking at a few but have no idea what the sizes are like.

    Failing that can anyone recommend a shop that has some nice dresses in them? I've tried the usual oasis river island etc and not seen anything nice :(

    They put sizes into numbers so you can tell what size you need, they kept it as simple as possible for women. It's not like men where its medium or large etc, and you can't tell if its small fit or not.

    a 10 is a 10, a 12 is a 12 simples ;)

    New Look, Next and River Island now do online shopping which delivers in Ireland, you can return to the nearest shop as well, so thats handy. Also New Look will give you 10% off online.

    Don't talk to me about buying dresses online, my head is melted over the last 2 months. I finally got sorted in River Island a couple of weeks ago

    Littlewoods have some lovely stuff in also http://www.littlewoodsireland.ie/

    All else fails ask Gary where he got his little black number;)

    actually smartarse it's not because different shops have different sizes 10's 12's etc. For instance Oasis and H&M are smaller fitting than DP's and AWear even though they are the same size on the label

    Oh I love the idea of being able to bring it back to the shop. I don't want the hassle of having to post it back if I don't like it. Defo going to check them 3 out.

    I looked in to littlewoods but I don't like the way they make you sign up it's nearly like a second credit card. I'm bad enough as I am.

    Oh what was your dress for?

    Thanks a mil

    If its not BT2 online, then I wouldn't bother, Sister!

    Their stuff is to-die-for.

    A little pricey, but when you put yer tush into one of their quality garments, you'll feel the difference.

    Usually i can't wait for the grubby little post-man to deliver my latest purchase from them. They deliver within 48 hours and I usually just stick the tab on one of my latest boy-friend's cards. tee-hee!

    Nothing nicer than sitting in a bubble-bath, eating some choccies, and ordering a new skirt from BT2.

    But not too many choccies, mind. A lifetime on the hips and all that!! xoxo
