I have a close friend's wedding to attend in just under two weeks time. She is a very pretty girl and has been preparing for this day for three years. I do not wish to feel like Shrek next to her so I am going all out to look and feel fabulous.
Firstly, I did cave and bought a dress from Coast. It is not the pretty coffee coloured one I posted on here, but is a body-con bright red Jessica Rabbit number. No missing me then.
Then I tried many pairs of shoes I already own with the dress and discovered none were acceptable and that new shoes must be sought. Fortunately Vivienne Westwood had designed the perfect pair, so they are now mine too. It troubles me slightly that the same design has been seen on Katy Perry's and Pamela Anderson's feet. I was more relaxed when I saw Leona Lewis wearing a pair as she does not have the same slightly promiscuous reputation.
It then occured to me that I will not want bad roots showing, so I booked myself a hair dyeing appointment. At the same time, I thought, maybe I should not have GHD straightened hair as is always my look, and as I am incapable of doing up my own hair, I've booked in to have this done too. I have selected a picture of Heidi Klum's updo and shall expect to leave the salon looking just like her.
Then, over the last few weeks, we have had some gloriously sunny weather and I have caught the sun on my face and shoulders but my legs are still frighteningly white. This will never do, so when my sister talked of the Fake Bake spray tan at her spa, and the family discount I would receive, it seemed foolish not to book in for one. Whilst looking at the spa brochure, it also occured to me that it would be rather nice to have a pedicure, even though you will not see my feet. But why have a pedicure without a manicure? So I have this booked too.
Like a fool, I then realised THERE IS NO BAG. What to do? It must be gold and heart shaped. I have now rectified this but have been slightly more sensible and got this from Ebay.
I am now on a severely low food shopping budget in order that I look fabulous and do not get into a fight with the bank. Priorities.
I have upped my fitness regime and ran my best time this week. I went swimming this week and ran twice.
I hope none of my other friends plan to get married any time soon. I will need to sell a kidney.
