Unless it's uncomfortable then definitely return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-2-keep-or-return#post-1909443 Mon, 16 Apr 2018 15:24:39 +0000 krishnidoux 1909443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks great.<br />I am concerned that you mention the waist feels too high. It might become an issue down the road.<br />What is&nbsp;ciputesie?<br />Regarding the pic: do you use a mac?&nbsp; I recently discovered that you can make pictures clearer in iphotos by using the return key. It will let you adjust the exposition (so you can make it clearer with more light) and also crop (therefore enlarge).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-2-keep-or-return#post-1909435 Mon, 16 Apr 2018 15:11:05 +0000 Mac 1909435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks. It’s navy. I think it’s more forgiving around the mid section than the patterned blue and white dress. I’m not much of a ruffle person in general, but in plain dark blue it doesn’t feel too loud or ciputesie for my tastes.</p> <p>I know these photos aren’t great -sorry!- I just feel bad asking my sitter to take endless photos while she’s also trying to keep my rambunctious 3 year old entertained... thanks for patiently squinting enough to give these helpful feedbacks.

This one seems to be a little prettier. I like the small ruffle on the top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-2-keep-or-return#post-1909426 Mon, 16 Apr 2018 15:01:22 +0000 Anonymous 1909426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great on you to my eye. I vote keep. Is it black? I cannot tell the color on my phone screen. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-2-keep-or-return#post-1909405 Mon, 16 Apr 2018 14:24:51 +0000 Mac 1909405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>this dress is more in my comfort zone than dress #1, being sans pattern and in a more muted colour. Waist feels too high. Lovely silk fabric.</p> <p>Thank you for input. Xox </p>
