[Nikkinoonoo]

xXx

 

[Mynx]

Oh and 6 weeks till my hen night!!!

 

[Mynx]

Still no bloody update on the dress status But the delivery tracking website is down atm, and I'm hoping that's a good sign as the last time it did that, there was a status update when it was back up again ....

I've been looking for some little red or ivory bolero cardis for the flower girls today, so I'll be getting those when I get the shoes in August I was also looking at those little flower halos but I dont think either of them will keep them on! I'm certain Evie wont, she hates anything in/on her hair.. I've been trying for the last couple of weeks to put a little clip in what little hair she does have but it stays in for about 5 minutes then she pulls it out

I hear you! Claire is the same! I have these adorable felt flower clips from Briar.Claire (Etsy shop) and she had a friggin' epic meltdown when I tried to put on in her ponytail.

for customs. Hurry the EFF up!!!

hope there's a dress update when the tracking site starts working again

 

[Mynx]

Nikkinoonoo and I were discussing this yesterday before our Zumba class.. it's soo bloody frustrating because if it was a well known shop or something in the UK then I'd be able to ring them up and give them hell for it! But then again, it wouldnt be stuck in customs I guess

 

[twiggy56]

yay 9 weeks! Is there no way of tracking the status of the order whilst its in customs?

Y'know how you get 'processing' or 'ready for dispatch'?

 

[twiggy56]

You're only a week and 2 days behind me...only just properly realized that!

I mean I realized that, but not actually realizing it?

Stop talking Laura.

The status just reads the same every time I check it.. the last update was the other day but it was dated the 27th, and it was the same status - "pending verification" .. frustrating!!!
