I'd like to join in too if I can :rolleyes:

I've been to one show now, and realised very quickly that my grey suit (even with a bright red top underneath) is waaaayyy too drab for showing :)

I am after a bright coloured jacket (and skirt or trousers if available - but I plan to wear a black skirt otherwise) in a size 12. My puppy is a lemon and white pointer so I think I'm after a purple, sky blue or green jacket - but I'm open to suggestions and other ideas. Thanks!

HEY :rolleyes: HELP NEEDED OVER HERE

Can anybody suggest what would look nice but not too gaudy against a black/brindle and white puppy girl? I don't want her to blend in with me but not want to take the focus off her, if you know what I mean.

Will be looking through op shops soon as I've been recommended to go there for show clothes but would like an idea of what to look for.

Ta muchly :)

Pastel colours would look lovely: pink, blue, green, lilac, dusty rose, etc. None of those colours are over the top or crazy, but I do think they would set off your girl in a very nice way. :rofl:

Thanks mersonmalinois :rofl:

I went to the Salvos yesterday (god I love that shop!!!) and got a whole outfit for ... $11!!! OK OK now I sound like a complete cheapskate but I can't afford to fork out heaps of moola for clothes that are going to get dirty on a regular basis. I ended up with a beigey pair of pants and a white top that doesn't look too corporate! Hopefully that will do for the mo but I'll keep my eyes out for decent greens and reds as well :rofl:

I have a friend that is looking for show suits in size 12. We don't have a huge selection up this way. She has done the Vinnies thing.

I am assuming short sleeves ? and what colour would be suitable ? :laugh:

She doesn't have a preference with sleeve length, either will do, but the skirt must be alright to run in. Any colour other than black! And preferably unlined!!!
