Dress - Guess - Similar
Shoes - ??? (Sorry I forgot!) - Similar
I have had this dress for quite some time and I enjoy wearing it, but I am not so sure that it does much for me. It is quite a bit of contradictions for me actually. I really like that it is short. I like that it has a deep V-neck. I also like that it has stretchy fabric right at the skinniest point of my waist. And on hot days, like this day was, I really like how light and flowy it is.
So then... what is it that I don't like about it? Well it is kind of what I personally call a sack dress. Now, I know that there are officially items that are truly sack dresses, and I don't know if this dress officially fits into that category, but it is what I personally reference this dress as. Why? Well it is sort of a large rectangle of fabric, and that is about it.
Okay, so it is pretty cool that a simple, no structure, rectangle of a dress can help give me the illusion of some curves. I do like that aspect, but from certain angles, it looks super blocky!
Oh and another thing that I do not think works very well for me is the size of the fabric that goes over my shoulders. At first I thought that with it being a wider piece of fabric that it would help hide the size of my arms, but I think that with the larger size of fabric that it actually makes my arms look bigger than other items I wear.
Hmm..... yet again, with another piece of clothing, do I actually like it or not? Life's ponderables. Interesting.
What about you? What do you think? Am I just over thinking things like I often do? I mean, come on, that is some impressive cleavage that this dress allows me to show off a bit. Maybe I should just focus on that. It shows some boobage, and a bit of tasteful boobage is never a bad thing, huh?
Ha!
Love you!
Enjoy boobs.
Cause they are fun!
Well, maybe just to me,
Seriously, I still can't believe that I can create this look with no actual boobs.
Okay, enough!
Loves!
(One more thing - I just googled sack dresses, and this dress is clearly not that, so I need to rethink how I reference this dress!)
It's a really cute dress and, coming from someone else with arm issues ;) -- I think the shoulder material is just perfect.

Thanks Erin!
DeleteHi Nadine. I love the dress and think it is very flattering. The length is perfect. The way the stretchy material gathers around your waist gives you a very nice shape. The length and shape along with your shoes really make your legs look nice. I see no problem at all with your arms. The cleavage is beautifull and looks perfectly normal. As always your smile gives you a look of confidence.
ReplyDeleteCute dress.

Thanks Clare. Yeah, I often think I am WAY too critical as well.
DeleteI think it's nice, and I just wish I could fill it like that.I like the way it's gathered under the bust.
ReplyDeleteThanks Susie-
DeletePerfecting my cleavage has been a many year trial and effort art form! And I am pretty happy with my current results!
