You look gorgeous in your striped dress. Love it and not dowdy at all. Second wow for your handsome son!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ahoy#post-1702715 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 15:21:22 +0000 Laurie 1702715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I appreciate all of the positive comments here. &nbsp;Honestly, the dress is so dang comfortable, soft and flowy, plus has the cute back so I will be wearing it again this summer especially while our temps remain in the upper 90's.</p> <p>The backdrop was spectacular. &nbsp;I'll post a few more daytime photos over on off-topic. &nbsp;Anyone close to Salem, MA should try to visit this weekend when Eagle comes into harbor. &nbsp;It's very fun to tour the ship and talk to the Swabs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ahoy#post-1702663 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 13:33:12 +0000 RobinF 1702663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an exciting event! My brothers were both in the Navy and the heat when they were graduating was horrible! Some of the guys were passing out in those wool uniforms. You look nice and cool though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ahoy#post-1702658 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 13:02:28 +0000 JAileen 1702658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your dress looks great and your son is very handsome. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ahoy#post-1702651 Tue, 26 Jul 2016 12:46:34 +0000 Suz 1702651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Skylurker said.

It's a Preppy Fun, and very nautical. So you match your dashing Ben to perfection.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ahoy#post-1702100 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 19:17:30 +0000 rachylou 1702100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No no. It's good preppy perfectness. And isn't your son handsome in his uniform! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ahoy#post-1702092 Mon, 25 Jul 2016 19:00:20 +0000 Laurie 1702092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We had the absolute best weekend seeing our Swab for the first time since he reported to the US Coast Guard Academy. &nbsp;He boarded the barque Eagle on Saturday in Norfolk, VA and today they set sail to Salem, MA. &nbsp;<br />It was beyond hot - over 100 degrees both days. &nbsp; &nbsp; At least I was in shorts and this dress all weekend - the Coast Guard dress uniform pants are wool! &nbsp;All in uniform must be under "cover" - wearing their hats - at all times outdoors,and those things are heavy and hot. &nbsp; &nbsp;The third shot is Ben in the work uniform which is cotton, but heavy. &nbsp; Not one Swab or Cadet complained about the heat or discomfort, however, even standing duty and greeting visitors for hours in the blazing sun. &nbsp;All said that it was nothing compared to what they've been through over the past 4 weeks in boot camp! &nbsp;</p> <p>These are not the most fab pics of the weekend, but I posted the link to this dress last week so here are a couple of shots. I give it an A+ for being event-appropriate! &nbsp;Looking at the pics, &nbsp;I actually don't love it from the front -feels a little dowdy - although the back is really really cute, &nbsp;too bad my backpack is covering most of it. &nbsp; I think it could be shorter, but I'm not investing any more $$ since I had it altered already.</p> <p>Happy to be posting from the A/C today! </p>
