The Mock Turtle

So sadly that dress had an elasticated waistband which made it ride up under my boobs and look six months pregnant. The material was so pretty so it's a shame. Anyway, I'd been thinking of ordering this: https://www.next.co.uk/style/st312389#627919 for a while for work. It looks really dull but is very flattering and cool and soft. I will wear colourful accessories and bright lipstick.

That’s very nice. What a shame about the other one. I’m still taking it as a win though.

I really like the last one, it looks cool and very Wimbledon suitable.

What a shame about the other one, it's a beautiful print.

I've just realised that our Wimbledon tickets are for THIS MONDAY We lucked out with the local ticket allocation in 2020 and we're finally actually going! (assuming noone gets covid in the meantime ;) )

I will be taking some photos for work while I'm there and the jewellery isn't confirmed but it's likely to be yellow gold, emerald, diamond and maybe amethyst/tanzanite. What ever I wear has to work with the bling, so I was thinking a simple navy dress might be good. I do have a few navy dresses that might work, but I'll have to try them on to see if I can still get in them

Do you think everyone else will be wearing floaty floral maxi dresses? I don't have much time to go shopping Help please!!

Also - is anyone else going this year?

I’m so tragic I’ve got pics of the dresses I’m considering wearing on my phone, from when I originally bought them. I think / hope they should all fit still (?)

I prefer either of the two Cos dresses.

Same. One of the top two.

I love the green one! I am so jealous, I'd love to go to Wimbledon.

I love the navy Cos one!

The navy Cos one looks so chic on you, emma! Although, tbf, I bet you'd manage to make a plastic sack look chic.

So true.

Green dress followed by Navy COS dress.

I’m afraid it’s true.

Is the green one too on-the-nose for Wimbledon, or would it be a good backdrop for the jewellery *because* of that?

I love the green one

I was to say what Ella has said.

Lucky you!

I love the navy Cos dress! You look lovely in all three though.

I love the green on you. What’s the weather forecast? I only ask as I find sleeves annoying when it’s really warm (though I am a very sweaty person so that plays into it too)

Ooh, love the green dress!

Well this is Americans we're talking about so I don't think we need to worry about being too on-the-nose. In fact the LA studio are sending over samples of the new tennis bracelets they're launching later in the year so I can take photos of those while I'm there

I had a try on last night and can still get into all the dresses
