Your hubby is silly! It's totally elegant and appropriate for work and weekends.

I'd pair it with white to polish it up for work and wear with yellow or fushia to make it fun for weekends. It doesn't hit you at the same length as the model, right? If so it is too short for work.

It definitely isn't girl scoutish but I am VERY skeptical of those huge hip pockets. I can't see those being at all flattering unless you have a very boyish body type or a very slim lower half. If you do I would just polish i up with jewelry and some smart shoes and that should help.

A gorgeous dress! Hubby is hilarious. I used to be a brownie and I wish my uniform looked like that.

Maya is quite right. It’s the perfect dress for a straight, boyish body with a smallish chest (like me and this dress can go straight into my wardrobe). An inverted triangle with a small bust line is another ideal body type of this frock. If this is your body type, go for it. How is the length?

Julia and Maya make super suggestions on how to dress it up or down.

That's a great dress Lizky, and the colour's fabulous too. Sigh, if only I could wear that type of clothes... you go for it!

Attached are some pictures of me in the green dress. I'm apple shaped with bigger bust. What do you think. I dressed it up with spring color combinations. (here's my first attempt with linking photos)

By the way. Thank you all for your comments!!!

Lizky, I really love that dress and wish I could wear it as well. Unfortunately, I can not see those pictures you posted at all.

Please try the links to my pictures above again. It should work now. I am looking forward to your comments and suggestions.

Thanks again! Lizky

Lovely! And there is so nothing girl scout uniform about it...

I especially like it with the cardigans.

You don't look like an apple to me.. More hourglass.

Looks very nice and not like a uniform...my favorite is the belt and the pink cardi. Very nice!

My dear Lizky, you have co-ordinated this girly dress beautifully, and your sense of colour matching is commendable. But your bust line is screaming for a scooped, or V-neckline. As is, the dress is pulling across the bust area. A lower neckline is going to be a lot more flattering. What are your thoughts?

Thanks everyone for your nice comments.

Angie - I am worried about the "pulling" too. I was thinking of getting the area between the bust and the shoulder altered/fitted but don't know if it is worth the money or the trouble OR if I should just look for another dress. The "pulling" is always my problem... Of course v neck dresses/wrap dresses usually are too low for me.

I hear you Lizky. V-necks are probably too va va voom for your torso. The right cami really helps though. Have a look at the thread that Shell posted a few days ago of her outfit. I think a scoop neck is best. If you were my client, we’d be looking for another dress (sad face).

Thanks for the honesty Angie. You're right! I'll keep looking for dresses which fit my body type better...

Good idea! Keep us posted.
