Finding and understanding your body type

Found a Dress ?

My daugther went with me on Sat to find a dress. My husband and daughter love it but I'm not so sure. Please give me your honest opinion.

I LOVE this dress on you! I think it would look fab with your boyfriend cardigan over the top.

I would wear that dress.

That’s a WONDERFUL dress, Debbie! A very flattering silhouette and gorgeous colour combination. Daughter and hubby have a good eye! All you need to do is finish off the look. You need hose and perhaps a cover-up unless it’s hot in your neck of the woods. Accessories are a good idea too.

Thank you everyone!

What acccessories would you suggest. I have a wrap that I can use depending on the weather. It might be 90 degrees or in could be 50. Texas weather got love it! I bought hose so at least that is done.

I really like the print and colors. I would go with a black stone necklace - something slightly chunky. But you could do a pearl/crystal peice as well.

Something like this from Kohls (have not seen in person but I like a larger modern necklace - this may be too big)

Love your new dress! It's extremely flattering on your shape, and I like how it's going to be useful through different seasons. Winter? Throw on a cute jacket or cardigan. Summer? Sparkly sandals.

You did *well*. :)

That necklace that Chris has found looks really neat too. I guess you'll just have to wear your new dress out shopping for accessories. That'd be fun, don't you think?

Debbie, that BR dress looks great on you! Is this for your husband's retirement dinner? I think you definitely need some hose and I like Chris's idea of a statement necklace. You could also do chunky pearls or a multi-strand necklace. A hip length cardigan would be classic and if you wanted to be more trendy, you could do a BF cardigan.

That dress is a beautiful fit for you! Good job.

Great dress! Well done, Debbie.

It looks great on you! It really highlights your lovely eye color. I would maybe consider a blue necklace to bring that color up even higher.

Chris thanks for the link for the necklace. I'm going to try and go look at it tomorrow. I do have a couple of things that might work. I'll try and post them tomorrow. I really appreciate all the help.

Woohoo great dress x

It's gorgeous on you! I'd got for a shorter, chunky necklace.

Hooray, this dress look really great on you, Debbie! You could do a lot of things with it. You could try layering a cardigan (maybe your new AT boyfriend cardigan you got for your birthday) or a cropped denim jacket if you have one. Necklaces and bracelets will look great too.

You look great in this dress. Just perfect. Are you an apple? I am one too and I may just have to try this dress.

I hadn't thought of the demin jacket. I do have one and it would be great for a more casual look. Thanks Ana!

Elpgal-I am most definitely an apple!
