Yoohoo Friday and a warm welcome to all my bloggy friends. Today's title is in honour of the fact that I HAVE to go clothes shopping today or tomorrow - bleh! As you may have gathered I hate clothes shopping, which my 15 year old self would probably have fallen down in sheer fright and disbelief of the fact that you can grow out of the love for it. Crafty stash shopping is a completely different story, obviously!. This is in aid of having to get a new suit for the upcoming royal (not) wedding of my cousin Paul at St Paul's Cathedral in a few weeks.
Any tips greatly received on avoiding the situation totally (believe me I have tried t'internet) and failing that recovery from the ordeal LOL!
Have a super weekend and see you on Monday xx

Hello Emma - found your blog through ILWS and love your work. I'm also a fan of your song titles and lyrics for your posts,lol.
Unfortunately, I have no advice for you - I hate clothes shopping too. - Lynne
Mmm not my favourite thing to do either so sending my sympathy. I agree Craft shopping is far more exciting browsng the SU catty especially. Smashing card too honey very pretty.
O.M.G!!!! How amazing does the pink look with the Kraft wowee, love it hun, stunning card!
Regarding the shopping, how about going to one of the large department stores that offer a personal shopper, they'll do all the running around for you & help you put things together?
Best of luck & have a good weekend

Good luck clothes shopping, I hate it to, I have put a bit of weight on lately and I think it has added to my hate of clothes shopping....I am vertically challenged to so nothing ever fits & as for the fashion.......no idea!!!!! Good luck anyway sweetie, I will be thinking of you.

Oo poor you Emma. Hope you manage to find something for 'the' wedding. I don't like clothes shopping either so I don't envy you. Go to Monsoon they'll kit you out!!!! My fav shop in a crisis! The girls are really helpful too. They kitted me out for my son's wedding and for a couple of other do's.
Good luck.
Love the card by the way.

I feel your pain. I don't mind clothes shopping but don't like wedding clothes. Went yesterday and got a bargain though - a £99 frock for £15!!!! Love your card by the way.
Oh Emma this is simply beautiful, I love it!
