One of the most memoriable parts of last years “Sex and the City” movie for most, was that Vivienne Westwood wedding dress.
The internet shopping mecca website, Net-a-Porter have recently added the gown to their Wedding Boutique and it sold out almost instantly. The champagne silk satin dress has a sweetheart neckline and full puff skirt.
So if you too fancy an injection of Carrie Bradshaw on your wedding day, you will have to go on the waiting list and expect to part with about £7000.

The latest fashion craze to hit the internet is a clothes swapping site called Big Wardrobe. This site lets users list unwanted items of their wardrobe to be swapped or bought by other users. We’ve all fallen self-delusional shopping myths such as ‘It will fit perfectly after my diet’ or ‘I will get so much use out of this, even though it doesn’t go with the rest of my clothes,’ and every one of us has at least one item that we have bought purely because ‘it was a bargain.’
Now you can swap these mis-purchases with people who will actually wear them, and what’s more, they can send you an item of their own unusued wardrobe to fill the gap. There are some good items listed, and when I searched I found a never-worn Maggie Sottero wedding dress, so pop on over and have a rummage.
