I hope to have the dress within a couple of weeks and will post pics. In the meantime I just scored a seventies style shirt dress from ebay and can't wait for it to arrive.

Go for it. (thanks, Angie... Now my appetite has woken up and it's jumping around and calling for chicken and it's only 09:50 in the morning </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-358257 Mon, 30 May 2011 01:57:07 +0000 Michelle 358257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julie: we all know what a discerning eye I have for pattern evaluation (plastic never fails), and I'm putting my expert opinion on the side of right...Get the dress, pronto!<br /> Debbie, I'm coming over to partake of the leftovers! Angie, I may have to obtain that penne recipe from you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-358233 Mon, 30 May 2011 01:23:11 +0000 anne 358233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie - I am going to try your recipe next time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-358011 Sun, 29 May 2011 14:58:12 +0000 Angie 358011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Animal print is a neutral to me too - just like red :)</p> <p>Anne, not quite but similar. I pop in 3x more apricot jam, add chili, soy sauce and garlic and leave out the tomato sauce. It drains when it's grilled in the oven. Flop proof!</p> <p>Debbie, I'm sending over leftovers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357965 Sun, 29 May 2011 10:00:15 +0000 ButterflyLady 357965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that dress would look way beyond cool on you (basing this on the handful of pictures I've seen of you) - definitely not overwhelming at all.</p> <p>And anyway, leopard is a neutral (according to MaryK) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357950 Sun, 29 May 2011 06:44:25 +0000 AJ 357950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this dress will look killer with your new hair style and color!

Nigella reckons she cut down on the jam from the South African recipe she was basing it on, but DH and I feel we would have like have had more!</p> <p>Am hijacking your thread a little here Julie, but can't look at pictures right now - internet connection too slow at the end of the month! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357867 Sun, 29 May 2011 01:37:06 +0000 Debora 357867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another thumbs up from me!

So banish all doubtful thoughts from that pretty head. </p> <p>I've prepped: grilled sweet apricot jam chicken wings with onion rocket salad and stilton sauce for starters, spicy vegetarian amatraciana penne for main, and a wicked chocolate mousse for dessert. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357789 Sat, 28 May 2011 21:13:15 +0000 RoseandJoan 357789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All knowing nymphs are my favourite kind Maya,</p> <p>Thank you Lisa </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357768 Sat, 28 May 2011 20:52:11 +0000 Lisa 357768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357764 Sat, 28 May 2011 20:48:53 +0000 Maya 357764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, well I am a nymph by comparison, but I wouldn't have a problem wearing that print. </p> <p>And I am always right (about everything). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357762 Sat, 28 May 2011 20:46:43 +0000 RoseandJoan 357762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow, more yay sayers. </p> <p>Actually Angie I'm a smidgen under 5ft 8" but don't tell anyone. What are you cooking? </p> <p>Alecia, I agree the styling would be all important.</p> <p>Thanks Medusa. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357724 Sat, 28 May 2011 20:15:16 +0000 Alecia 357724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool dress. The way you style it will make all the difference. Pop some pearls on with that and it would ground the look a bit (if you're looking to do that.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357722 Sat, 28 May 2011 20:13:36 +0000 medusa 357722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely not too wild! I think you should go for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357720 Sat, 28 May 2011 20:11:33 +0000 Angie 357720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello Ms. RoseandJoan. I am prepping for a dinner party so I am indeed relaxing today :0)</p> <p>I think it's a matter of personal taste. I know that I would love you in large scale prints and dramatic prints! And your body art will accessorize the look. Pointy toed ballet flats sound divine with this wild frock. </p> <p>I also think that you are taller than 5ft 8 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357702 Sat, 28 May 2011 19:56:52 +0000 RoseandJoan 357702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes Scarlet, I was looking for a leopard print coat but could quite happily settle for a dress.</p> <p>Lynne the MNG dress is FAB, they do not have a store in Edinburgh, I really wish they would hurry up!</p> <p>Astrid and Dianthus, thank you for the vote of confidence. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357687 Sat, 28 May 2011 19:48:32 +0000 Scarlet 357687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can imagine that looking great on you. It is a bit edgy for sure but would not be overwhelming in my view. Haven't you been on the hunt for some fab leopard print for awhile? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357685 Sat, 28 May 2011 19:47:01 +0000 Astrid 357685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it and I could see it on you, I don't think it's too wild at all. I also like how you want to wear it, with the black pointy toe ballet flats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357684 Sat, 28 May 2011 19:46:15 +0000 Lynne 357684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julie, have you seen this one from mango? Different print, and a retro vibe, but a similar colour way. I've seen it on several people IRL and its lovely on:<br /> <a href="http://shop.mango.com/ficha.faces?id=41440162&#038;state=she_008_IN" rel="nofollow">http://shop.mango.com/ficha.fa.....she_008_IN</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357683 Sat, 28 May 2011 19:43:58 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 357683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Lynne. I think the scale is small enough for even a small framed woman to carry. I really like the black edging and piping too. </p> <p>If it's been calling to you for some time, perhaps you should answer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357682 Sat, 28 May 2011 19:41:32 +0000 Lynne 357682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julie, the colour way is so neutral, I don't think the scale is aproblem at all. I was expecting something WAY louder :). I think this would look great with your colouring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-the-forum-dramatic-prints#post-357677 Sat, 28 May 2011 19:37:42 +0000 RoseandJoan 357677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello Mrs. Cox</p> <p>I hope you are finding some time to relax this weekend :-).</p> <p>I usually avoid larger scale or dramatic prints because they appear to overwhelm me, even at 5ft 8", but this dress keeps catching my eye. Do you think the print is a little too wild for my features?</p> <p>The dress looks even more eye catching on the tattooed, raven haired, flamed lipped model but with my shorter do and styled with black pointy toe ballet flats it would look a lot more demure.<br /> <a href="http://www.collectif.co.uk/leo-june-dress-feral-p-sku508-c-leo.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.collectif.co.uk/leo.....c-leo.html</a> </p>
