Re: My Wedding Shopping...

ummm....maybe ur wedding nite pjs unless ure thinking of wearing sum nice comfy shalwar kamise

Re: My Wedding Shopping...

yup, thx,,

who wears pjs on the wedding night? :halo:

LOL get sexy lingerie, I’m sure u can get it in Pakistan specially since they have marks& victoria there but the selection is limited and outdated. I wouldn’t worry about perfumes as I would about foundations and lip colors. Definitely get cosmetics there cuz even a lot of high end retailers in pak sell old cosmetics and u don’t wanna put an old lipstick on ur lips.

LOL…thought if i said tht she would pik up wut i meant!! i dont think i wud feel so comfortable buying sleepwear from pak with all the paki men at the stores :bummer: plus its not like u can freely go shopping by urself u have to go with sum1..unless ure totally comfortable with buying in fron tof friends or cousins!!

Re: My Wedding Shopping...

nice lingerie!! Agent Provoceteur, La Perla (if a grand budget) from Harrods (they usually have nice sales) and Selfridges....Debhenems etc for normal wear

wedding stilettos! other cute sandals

Cosmetics (Moisturizers, foundations etc--u'll get it fresh)

handbags

If u like Body Shop or Crabtree and Evelyn lotions

Toni and Guy hair products or Molten Brown

sweaters:) and scarves (I mean if u live where it gets quite cold in the winters)

Stella McCartney products can be so difficult to find other than UK

i miss london ~sigh~

Re: My Wedding Shopping...

Wow, your coming to england :) You will love it!!

Go to Oxford Street, all the western shops are there. Go to Selfridges or House of Fraser in Central London! They got lots of counters there. I recommend Nars and Mac counters.
If you want cheaper makeup, you can go to Boots or Superdrug.

For western clothes, go to Topshop and Zara. They have nice smart/casual clothes.

If you want nice shoes for your wedding, go to Bond Street! They got all the high end shoe shops, like Gina, Jimmy Choo, Prada, Christian Louboutin, Gucci, Dior.

You may also want to get your wedding rings, Hatton Garden has LOTS of shops.

If you need any advice you can PM me! I will recommend you some places.

Re: My Wedding Shopping...

get urban decay eye shadow palettes!! they r amazing...and blend really well...im gonna take them for my cousins in pakistan

Re: My Wedding Shopping...

^urban decay eye shades are soo pretty as well as their lip stains.

IMO though no company tops MAC when it comes to eyeshadows.

Re: My Wedding Shopping...

mac is cool too, skin products r just amazing...

Thx, Kiran im from England actually this will b kind of my last trip before wedding, so got totally blank what to get… so thought i’d ask here. Tho make-up is the main thing, cz i know its not at all fresh in Pakistan..
Even i wanna get some good perfume cz then u have memories with it forever…lol..i mean when ever i’ll wear it’ll remind me of my wedding.. so suggest me which one to get.. :slight_smile:

[EMAIL="Lol@PJs"]Lol@PJs for wedding nite

Re: My Wedding Shopping...

u should buy i.d. bareMinerals foundation for daily use its superb gives full coverage and u wont be needing powder on and a nice cosmetic bag to put all ur daily use stuff

and from dubai u can get nice culutches and earings for ur party wears from ALDO or meena bazaar

u can buy nice bed spreads,quilts and candles in different colours and scents from HOME CENTRE ir ZARA HOME in dubai as u wont be just needing cosmetic and accessories after ur wedding

Re: My Wedding Shopping...

You should probably try and buy a lot of cosmetics from Dubai Duty Free, mot likely to be cheaper than High St stores in the UK.

Great brands for Asian skintones are MAC and Bobbi Brown.
I know for sure that there's a MAC there, it's not as big as what you'd find in a department store, but you will still be able to quite a bit from there.

Re: My Wedding Shopping...

mac foundation is brilliant i took it for my cousin in pak she loved it sooo much she asked the make up man to use it for her baraat and valima make up!

in england get some nice sleeping stuff sexy underwear nice shoes!

all my cousins request satin night wear from england....so because i have like 20 married cousins i always go to primark its very reasonable in price but pretty good quality night stuff.

The best and sexy perfume for the wedding?
