This might be my most favorite thread response EVER. I thought for sure everyone was going to go with "return", and I was trying to figure out how I could secretly not return it and instead wear it all the time and therefore never post an outfit photo again so you guys would never know.</p> <p>Luckily, it didn't have to come to that. LOL!</p> <p>I am so totally keeping this dress. Oh my, yes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94147 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 23:28:29 +0000 Angie 94147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up to keep both! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94143 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 23:26:33 +0000 Tanya 94143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote to keep both: the colors are different, the pattern, the sleeve length. They both look great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94120 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 21:24:19 +0000 Inge 94120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favourite is the first one (it's the colour and pattern;-), but the second one is lovely too, and for me they are different enough to justify keeping them both. Aren't we being helpful!-)</p> <p>I'm intrigued by the sound of the red ponte dresses!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94099 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 20:12:01 +0000 RoseandJoan 94099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I voted keep both, they may have a similar feel but are really suitable for different occasions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94093 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 20:05:52 +0000 Anonymous 94093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep both since you wear lots of dresses. Besides, the second one has sleeves so that makes it different, right? Although we know you can toss on a cardi or jacket with the first, for DH you could refer to one as your warm weather version and the other for cooler months. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94083 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 18:42:41 +0000 kimlee 94083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristen - I think both dresses are keepers. The subtle difference in pattern and the tone helps differeniate between the two. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94080 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 18:38:54 +0000 Louise 94080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've voted to keep both x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94053 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 17:21:56 +0000 Anonymous 94053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the second dress. The first is much more bubbly which matches your personality, but the second is gorgeous and subtly alluring great for days when you're feeling more moody. Keep both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94035 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 15:52:24 +0000 sinead 94035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristen, I vote to keep both- they're very different, to my eye. And I also prefer the second dress, but they're both great. The first is fun and vibrant, the second is an elegant, softer feel. And don't you have a purple cardi that would also look great with the second? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-94029 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 15:20:59 +0000 yublocka 94029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristen this is the first death match I voted keep both on. Ignoring the print the styles are different enough that they stand on their own. Like Laura I actually prefer the 2nd style. The colours may be similar but the prints are very different - 2 completely different moods! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-93986 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 14:19:06 +0000 Sarah 93986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really want the second dress. My Marshalls didn't have it. These are so different to me, I don't see why you couldn't keep both.<br /> I have a ton of dresses now. Four of which still have tags and have never been worn. A new rule for me is that I have to wear something I purchased within two weeks or it goes back, no questions. If I love it enough to buy it, I should love it enough to actually wear it.<br /> Good luck making your decisions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-93985 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 14:16:38 +0000 Laura 93985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually prefer the second dress to the first -- I like the sleeves and print of the second dress better. You have a tough decision to make! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-93984 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 14:11:27 +0000 Vani 93984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, Kristen this is fun! I LOVE the first dress on you and you've made it work in so many ways. The second one is pretty but not even close to the first. I'd save my pennies for a dress is a color palette you don't already have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-93977 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 13:16:32 +0000 rute 93977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kirsten,</p> <p>I have already voted! It's so fun! And I must confess that I have the same problem (buying similar clothes). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-93974 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 12:47:11 +0000 garmenta 93974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristen--<br /> The first dress is so striking and so cute on that in a deathmatch, it knocks the second one cold. The second one has a muted charm, but it can't compete, either in pattern or in flattery, with the first one.</p> <p>BTW, your "deathmatch for dresses" makes me laugh--reminds me of "The Secret Life of Dresses" posts on the blog "A Dress a Day"! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/deathmatch-brown-and-purple-pattern-dresses#post-93968 Tue, 15 Sep 2009 11:35:18 +0000 Kristen 93968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Copying most of this from the blog, since I need to get ready early for work and I have to figure out how to wear the CE sheath today, as promised. :)</p> <p>Today's DEATHMATCH is really more of a "please, Ma, can I keep them both?" question. The first dress, after all, is one I've been wearing for weeks already, and obviously will not be returned. But the second one I have no perspective on, and need YLF's guidance on whether it's a keeper in its own right. It's so pretty!</p> <p><a href="http://lowfatdressing.blogspot.com/2009/09/deathmatch-purple-and-brown-pattern.html" rel="nofollow">http://lowfatdressing.blogspot.....ttern.html</a></p> <p>You guys have totally rocked in helping me with the DEATHMATCHES; this is it for now, but I will have a battle of the red ponte dresses as soon as my Target order arrives later this week. Hee! </p>
