Title: Hey UK Friends!
Description: Now I have a question for you....


Breeze - April 5, 2007 11:02 PM (GMT)
Does anyone have a Hello! magazine from last year, specifically July 2006 with Jasmine Guinness on the cover in her wedding dress?

I love her dress and want to look for one similar, but I can't find any good pics on the net! I e-mailed Hello! to ask for a back-copy, but they haven't responded...

Any chance one of you lovely gals is sitting on a copy????? :wub:

yup that's it!!!! Sadly, that pic prints out way too small and just doesn't do it justice! Plus the magazine has a whole bunch of different pictures of it!

Me too - and Closer! And if I'm feeling really Jeremy Kyle, I go for That's Life!

camis - April 6, 2007 04:19 PM (GMT)
Never tried Closer or That's Life - maybe better if I don't :lol:

giz-angel - April 6, 2007 04:21 PM (GMT)
Closer is ok just a little further down the market but I'd say avoid That's Life like the plague I always feel a little grubby after I've read it!

Have you tried eBay?

Sunlightbub - April 6, 2007 05:47 PM (GMT)
I'll ask around at work someone may get it..I don't really do mags..except Heat if I need a gossi top up, but not for ages.
I'm thinking as it was last years Doctor's Surgeries might be an idea? :P

OMG! No! Why didn't I think of that???? :duh:

So smart girlie....

That dress is beautiful!!!

It's GREAT that you have an idea of what you want. I went into the bridal stores with a completely open mind and nothing specific to look for. I was so overwhelmed it was hard to even enjoy trying stuff on. Good luck with your dress hunting!

Breeze - April 6, 2007 08:23 PM (GMT)
No luck on Ebay so far....but I'll keep checking.

I remember liking it so much when I first saw it last year, and now that we're going to check out dresses (tomorrow!) I know I want to look for something like that. I just don't think strapless (that seems so prevalent lately) is for me, but I'm also not sure if I can pull off the same hot curves and Jasmine Guiness! ;)

Have you found anything that you like? Are you looking for white/cream dresses? I'm amazed how many gorgeous dresses there are in fabulous non-tradional colors!

ETA: I just noticed we might be getting married within a few days of each other!!! That's so cool! My date isn't 'booked' yet, its just the date I want...:)

Breezy could you contact them to see if they do a back issue service? I am happy to send it on to you if they only do UK.
