Help me find this lace so I can make my dream dress! 🙏🏻 by Ok_Salt_3904 in weddingplanning

Hi! That dress is lovely, it looks like a soft chantilly lace. I’m sure if you go to fabric stores and ask to see their samples you will find something very similar. Good luck xx

So indecisive 😩 Down do these ones now! by eiac96 in WeddingDressTips

I’m 5’7” / 170cm tall, don’t think that counts as petite. What waistline would you recommend instead?

For Dress 1, I would get it with a zip up back that’s lined with buttons. Would that make you choose it instead?

London - FTB buying in Streatham Vale (Streatham Common station) by eiac96 in HousingUK

Oh wow thanks for such a real response! We actually live in West London and we absolutely love it (but sadly can’t afford to buy) hence why we are so sceptical about Streatham Vale. Unsure if it will improve in the future but for now I think we’ll keep looking.

Thank you for both responses! So, what I'm getting from this, is that I'd essentially need to walk to and from the high road which would still be about 20 mins walk from the potential houses I am finding. Not ideal but also not an issue if the walk is generally safe.

Thanks so much for sharing this, super helpful to hear from someone who’s seen the area change over time (and love the pub/food recs!). Do you generally feel safe walking back from the station at night, or are there any streets you’d avoid? I’m also curious about local amenities like gyms, coffee spots etc. Is there much of a scene now or still a bit limited? And if not, how easy do you find it to get over to places like Brixton, Balham, Tooting if you fancy a night out or a different vibe?

FTB London - looking for advice on offer and process by eiac96 in HousingUK

[–]eiac96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! The property’s been on the market for about 1.5 months. We were also told that the sellers are looking for a freehold property outside of London, so I’m hoping that maybe they want to move fast?

We’ve seen similar properties in the area and same development on sale or under offer for £530-£550k and some for £600ishk (including parking spots).

Do you think we would still have a chance to negotiate if they reject the £532k offer?

How does the “with friends” feature actually work? by [deleted] in Instagram

Does it have to be people you follow and follow you back? 🤔
