She’s certainly got the goods to warrant showing them off.
So no wonder Vicky Pattison has decided to share a rather steamy selfie donning a teeny tiny set of lingerie.
The 27-year-old Geordie Shore beauty took the picture in her dressing room during a photo shoot – and couldn’t stop herself from uploading it onto Instagram.
She captioned the saucy snap: “Couldn’t resist… #playingphotographer #selfie #noairbrush #helllaaawww”
But Vicky didn’t stop there after being asked by her fans where her swimsuit that she wore in her new series Ex On The Beach was from.
Taking a picture of herself modeling the one piece (well of course) Vicky was quick to let her fans find out exactly where they could get their hands on it.
She wrote: “For everyone asking, my gorgeous cut out swimsuit from the first Ep of @mtvex’s was from @asos_studio! Get following now guys! #fashion #rollonsummer #whosexisnext #selfie”

Last year Vicky lost an impressive three stone, prompting her to release a now best selling fitness DVD.
However, in recent weeks, the star admitted that she hasn’t been quite as strict with her training regime, resulting in a weight gain of 12lbs.
She told new! magazine:”I’m trying really hard but it’s not my main focus any more. I’m back into parting and living my life so it’s slightly fallen by the wayside.
“I have put on weight. I’m 8st 12lbs.”
Weight gain or not, she still looks incredible.

Sticky Situation: Can We Ask Guests to Help Pay For Our Wedding?

Sticky situation:
My partner and I are planning to get married next year. However, we have a problem. My future husband is adamant; he wants to ask guests to pay a dollar amount for their presence on our wedding day.
For my part, I have some discomfort. We discussed it with our families and they all seem to agree with my fiancé. Your help would be greatly appreciated so I can make an informed decision.
Solution(s):
Your discomfort is justified and also honourable.
According to etiquette guidelines, when you choose to invite people to a party it is never appropriate to solicit cash contributions.
It’s really tacky to ask guests to pay. Inviting = paying.
In addition, when one asks for money as a gift, it presumes that people will not inquire to the bride and groom about what would make them happy. In fact, it assumes that your guests don’t have any basic manners and are not aware of the unspoken rule: “Every wedding invitation carries an obligation of gift giving, whether or not one chooses to attend.”
If you want to organize a celebration where everyone pays for their part, the invitation should not use the words “We invite you…”. It will instead use the words “We would like you to join us…”
To avoid a faux-pas if your budget is quite limited and strict, it is better to invite fewer guests or have a smaller celebration in a less expensive location.
It is important to note that any invitation should not contain any mention of a gift. Asking guests not to bring gifts, once again, makes the presumption of receiving a gift. Even the clever phrase “Your presence is the only present we want ” could be perceived as presumptuous and rude.
The perfect way to share gift information is by good old-fashioned word of mouth, by your relatives.
You and your spouse will give the details of your wish, like a European wine tour or a wedding registry at a large department store.
If a guest wishes to contribute money to make your dream come true, your trusted informants can then tell them how. Generally, guests can send a check by mail before the wedding day, to the future bride or groom that they are closest to.
Note: As a bridal shower is a gift-giving party it is appropriate to mention the gift theme on a shower invitation (lingerie, wine cellar). The accompanying gift registry information should be on a separate paper.
Expecting to receive a gift, especially a specific cash donation, when “inviting” guests to celebrate, is simply rude.
I hope this clarifies the rule of invitation so you may continue your discussion with your future spouse to invite your guests, without making a faux-pas.
