Others do wear it though.</p> <p>Do you love it? </p> <p>If so, AND it is in budget, and you are comfortable you will wear it often, get it.</p> <p>I sense a lot of hesitation on your part, and that leads me to think you should pass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/decisions-decisions-colorblocked-dress#post-1017829 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 15:25:46 +0000 rute 1017829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a similar one and I wear it a look, on winter I wear a black top under the dree, black opaque tights and boots.<br />Love the fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/decisions-decisions-colorblocked-dress#post-1017818 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 15:14:41 +0000 Pawprints 1017818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very flattering. Unless that's a fixable wrinkle at the bustline, I would pass and determine to look for another dress that feels as wonderful but is perfect for you in fit and also practicality for where you would be wearing it. Take away the great feeling of this dress and swear to repeat it. Leave the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/decisions-decisions-colorblocked-dress#post-1017815 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 15:11:53 +0000 Karie 1017815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It does appear to be pulling in the bust on the right side. That - along with the possible need for shapewear - would make me pass on this one. It is a pretty dress though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/decisions-decisions-colorblocked-dress#post-1017810 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 15:04:53 +0000 milehighstyle (Linda) 1017810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my gosh, this is stunning on you.&nbsp; Do you work in an office enviroment, or would your only opportunities to wear it be for going out?&nbsp; If it's possible to wear to work with a blazer, or if you have&nbsp;a few going out opportunities per year, I say definitely yes.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/decisions-decisions-colorblocked-dress#post-1017809 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 15:02:36 +0000 Anonymous 1017809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like it is pulling a bit at the bust on your right side.</p> <p>Would this be appropriate for work? If so, and you will wear it regularly, I think it would be a versatile piece for you.</p> <p>As for sucking it in, if it requires shapewear or herculean efforts to keep the line, then I say pass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/decisions-decisions-colorblocked-dress#post-1017808 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 14:58:53 +0000 Nanabear 1017808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went to the mall to go shopping for my mom, but ended up seeing the last one of&nbsp;this dress on the rack. &nbsp;It happened to be my size and I thought&nbsp;"hmm, I'll just try it on" ... now I wish I never saw it. &nbsp;The fit is divine and is quite flattering to my shapelessness. &nbsp;I am sucking in a bit in the pictures, though!&nbsp;:)</p> <p>I'm really torn because it's not cheap and I don't know if I will wear it enough to justify the cost. &nbsp;Ladies, please help me decide! &nbsp;Much appreciated from a tortured soul.</p> <p> </p>
