DRRRESSES: WANT

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the cut of that tracy reese, though I don't know if I would be comfortable with the print (love it, too, but just not on plain ole me).

i know what you mean. i have a general aversion to floral prints (i blame the 90s) but sometimes they look fabulous but i still don't think they're really me. i do think that dress is lovely but maybe not my thing?

it's very important that i agonize about whether this dress i can't afford suits me

i went back to the tracy reese site to find sale dresses to post here but there were so many dresses and i went into a trance. dress trance.

also that dress is so demure! maybe with a different neckline.

Ummm. It looks like bespoke might not actually be too late. If I can make it to a fitting tomorrow, anyway.

Go! Go!!

DO IT YES DO IT

yay!

omg yay!!!

neat.

Oasis is killing it right now imo. Tried on both of these today, both looked nicer in person but not quite the right fit for my body shape:

oh man that london dress

That London dress is fantastic!! Love it.

the margiela is so great!

Returned a skirt, received credit for entire $150 gc I'd used to purchase said skirt AND two dresses, heh. Shopping before they catch on, just in case..

I've just been to pick up my dress. I have no idea what other people will think, but I really really like it.

that's all that matters imo
congrats on your new plumage!

Ended up buying five dresses bc of gift card screwup..paid $110 total. I'll take it!

The designer I work for is doing a 30% off sale until end of August. To avoid being unforgivably spam, anyone who is interested can reach out to me if you'd like for details.

yay emil.y! pics maybe?

going to a silly girls' night out in a few weeks where we must all wear ridiculous animal prints, I bought this "leopard" one:

christ.

wowzers

it's weird but i like it
i find that wearing dresses like that is kinda hard with shorter hair because there's a surprisingly lot more skin showing if hair isn't distracting the eye/braion from everything else on display

maybe that's just me being self-conscious though

brain!

my god i am really on top of the typos today

My hair is pretty long now! It touches my shoulder blades. But yeah, I have definite ideas about which looks work with short hair and which with long. I am going to hair spray it up like I'm in Ratt.

I figure I should step it up after only being 1/2 sparkly during the Sparkle Party:

this is my other option which is more demure but I'm worried that belted bit might not be stretchy enough, damn the beer belly

I might actually wear that one again though

i'm just thanking the stars that my friends don't tell me what to wear
i don't even know people irl who do that, i don't think?! is this a bachelorette party or something?

Although it is not a thing I would wear, I quite like that first dress. Especially if you work some metal hair.

no, it's just for fun. No one's forcing me to go and as you can see, last time I went kind of low key about my sparkles. I felt underdressed though, so this time I thought I'd go for it!

The last time this happened was February, and I see most of these ladies at pub nights and whatnot, but sometimes I just want to wear something ridiculous and dance. And my shy husband(/most of them in our friend group) takes a LOT of convincing to go dance :P

I hope I can get the metal hair to work! I'm a fidgeter so my hair always ends up smoothed down by constantly touching it.

My hair is ridic long right now. Almost to my waist. And I need new dresses. The ASOS one was too big for me and looked like a sack. :(

that's too bad, it was so cute!

I'm thinking of stocking up on Asos. Looking at petite dresses on sale and they are lolsome SHORT. Maybe cos the sale stuff is the summer merch. But has anyone tried their petites? I am quite short from waist to shoulder so non-petite dresses normally bag around my arm height.

Tall people: do Asos regular sizes fit you in height and length?

I am not tall (5'6") but I find their regular size dresses fit me in length as expected. I'm also talking Asos Curve.

Whoah BUMMER, their Asos Curve clothes are on the whole WAY better than the reg sizes.

I mean, in style. Although I would say that because 2/3 of their regular dresses have cut-outs so large and numerous that half the dress is missing.

use code 'extra10' at checkout for 10% off, although not sure if that's just sale items.

whoaaa want

Thank you ASOS Curve for having a bunch of Sharon Stone-esque Erotic Thriller clothes right when I am conserving every extra dime for my UK trip in two weeks. :(

Need this for my Vegas trip in November!!!

I really wanted this one but the neckline looked kind of weird on me: http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_103020713060_-1

That link goes to the front page! I must see the dress.

that herringbone/floral dress is pleasantly 90s imo

lotsa cute dresses on asos, but i don't really need any more special occasion wear because i don't have that many special occasions
where do you guys wear these dresses? are people getting more dressed up to just go out on a normal weekend than they used to?
