Lipsy – Free Delivery On All Orders!

Katie Price in Zebra Sequin TunicLipsy are going to be offering free delivery from 12pm Thursday 27th August to midnight Monday 31st! To claim your free delivery, simply type BANKHOLIDAY into the promotion code box. Here is my favourite dress from the new Autumn collection – the Zebra Sequin Tunic as seen on Katie Price and Tulisa from N-Dubz. Priced at £55, this stunning dress (although looks more like a long top to me!), is jersey backed with scoop neck and back line. This dress would be perfect teamed with black opaque tights and killer heels, or if you’re brave enough, do a Jordan and wear nothing underneath. I also recently bought the Piped Belted Mac in the blueberry colour, although it appears quite light in the photo it is a nice dark shade of plum. The inside is also lined with black lipsy logo lining and contrast white piping. Usually I have to go a size up with certain Lipsy dresses and jackets but…

Lemon Kiss My Buttique

A couple months back I ordered a dress from Lemon Kiss Boutique, warning: do not buy anything from this shop! They will attempt to take your money and run. Yes it doesn’t look the best of sites and I had my suspicions about it, but since the payment method was google checkout, I knew I would get my money back if anything went wrong. I ordered the dress on the 30th of June, and by the 23rd of July still had not received it. After a week of nothing through the post I decided to contact the website before my payment had been authorised, knowing that if they did not reply I would withdraw the payment. Needless to say they replied straight away, claiming it would arrive within a couple of days. Two weeks later and still no dress. I then put a claim through google checkout and to my…
