				<description>&#060;p&#062;These look smashing on you, especially love the polka dots because I have a thing for them! Just curious, whose warm body are you going to slip in there with you? ;~)

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Wow thank so much for your beautiful comments! :)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I might size up on the polka dot since I feel it a bit tight across the bust, I'm trying on a bigger size tomorrow and see which one I keep. So happy to have two new dresses!  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I was drooling over the second dress in H &#038;amp;M just yesterday... And I would buy the first if not for my slight tummy :(&#060;br /&#062;
And they both look so perfect on you.. Please keep them Irene

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I like both too.  Because the pattern on the second dress is pretty busy, I'd like to see it with a solid color cascade/flyaway sweater, cardigan, or jacket, and maybe a belt.  I think that would break up the pattern some and would still look great on your slim frame.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;You are just the right age for these.  They look fab.  The polka dot one reminds me happily of the '80s.  Enjoy!!!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Both look totally fabulous on you and are quite different from each other, so I'd think you'll find them both useful too! &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Great choices and if breaking SYC for these doesn't prevent you from jumping back on the wagon, then keep!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Maybe don't go shopping too often with this friend though?  ;-)&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I think if a shopping companion is buying things and you're not, after a while it becomes their mission to make sure you buy *something*.  As though they don't like the contrast between their expenditures and your restraint, or they feel you're not having fun if you're not also buying 'things' for yourself. . .

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I agree that they both are great on you.  I am a total sucker for polka dots and especially large ones but I really like the abstract pattern on the second one.  &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Good luck with the search for a warm body with a matching heart.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Both are absolutely adorable on you. I love that they have different vibes. I can see possibilities for dressing each one up or down. Vests, jackets, tights, boots, heels... Enjoy!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Keep. Especially the first one looks amazing on you, and with e.g. tights and boots the body con aspect is totally okay for your age, I think.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I think they are both quite stunning and you do have the perfect figure for these dresses:). I particularly love the second dress.  I think you have some interesting layering opportunities here as well:)

				<description>&#060;p&#062;'That dress is SO you!'&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;'You have such a nice body, you can totally pull that off'&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;'Oh, come on, you love polka dots!'&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Crazy Irene broke her SYC pact and went overboard with two H&#038;amp;M dresses with bold patterns. Ok, so I did like them to begin with but friend insisted!!!! She *almost* forced me to buy them... and I thought I was doing so well when five hours later of shopping for her I had yet to get something for myself. Never leave your guard unattended!!!!!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I actually think these will be pretty good for autumn, and even winter if I can find a warm body (not shapewear) to slip under them. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;So... what do you think?&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;YAY = Yes&#060;br /&#062;
NAY=Return before you hypnotize someone with so much polka dot around!
&#060;/p&#062;
