Dress mavens - need advice.

<p>“It’s just not only do i look good in every color and I also look good in every style *except anything wide with no shape to it”</p>

<p>I’m not sure if you’re kidding or serious…</p>

<p>If you’re kidding, then I like the green too (as long as it works with your complexion, that wouldn’t work for everyone). I really like that dress.</p>

<p>If you’re serious, then why worry about a thing? Slap a burlap bag on, some old tennis shoes, and you’ll look just great! :D</p>

<p>Wow, over $200 for a pair of slippers is too rich for my blood, no matter how cute they are. Mostly, slippers tend not to last very long and don’t give me enough support to wear for long. These ARE cute, if you don’t mind shelling out some $$$$></p>

<p>“I’m not sure if you’re kidding or serious.”</p>

<p>Burlap is not a good color on me.and the bag would fall under to wide and shapeless category. :wink: </p>

<p>I’m a sucker for a great red dress. Good for you having the body to pull one of those dresses off. You’ll look great.</p>

<p>(I didn’t read the entire thread before posting…oh, well. )</p>

<p>I’m team Green, too! Love that dress…the green looks so summery to me.</p>

<p>So i went in a totally different direction. Went to my favorite store and straight to the sale rack. And there is was. fits me like a glove. I can also wear it to son’s graduation next spring, too. It doesn’t look nearly as good in the picture but it really is perfect. Then i bought shoes. </p>

<p>Dress was $215 - marked down from $430. </p>

<p>Shoes were only $195. </p>

<p>I have no idea what i am doing wrong. But lets see if 3rd time is the charm. </p>

<p>Nope. I’ll try later. </p>

<p>Can’t wait to see what you selected!</p>

<p>Awesome finds! :slight_smile: I bet you will get some good mileage out of both the dress and the shoes (I especially like the shoes!). </p>

<p>back of dress. </p>

<p>Glad you found something YOU like. That really is all that matters. Dress looks very comfortable. Shoes not so much so, but I like them anyway.</p>

<p>Shoes are very comfortable. </p>

<p>I just don’t like it - I love it. :slight_smile: </p>

<p>thanks BB. I plan too. </p>

<p>Dress really looks much better on. It is very fitted to the waist - and the skirt part has wide pleats. The black part in the back is sheer. </p>

<p>here it is on a model. </p>

<p>Absolutely gorgeous!! </p>

<p>Thanks nottelling! </p>

<p>I LOVE it! I also love the double strap at the angle for the shoes, and I think the height is perfect! I love high heels…but hate the 4 -5 inche ones. We were in Chicago a week ago and my DH made the comment how much he really likes the A-line dresses and skirts! He says they are very flattering to a women’s legs and figure. I told him that in Nina Garcia’s “The One Hundred” one of the things every woman is supposed to own is an A-Line dress… This one is flouncy and pretty and perfect! You’ll look fab!</p>

<p>I have no clue why I am so excited, but emilybee that outfit is so adorable and cute! Yay! You found something. Enjoy the party. :)</p>

<p>I bet the dress looks even better on someone of average height!
Have to say that I really like the looks of the double straps that actually serve a functional purpose: the ankle is more stabilized, making the shoe sturdier than it looks. </p>
