Can you snap a picture in case you have lost your vision due to that mind-bending CD collection??&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1291742 Mon, 30 Jun 2014 23:15:11 +0000 pil 1291742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone, sorry to have posted and promptly drop off the forum. We decided to work on purging a room we use for storage - no basement so the extra dander has to go somewhere. I've been weeding through my younger son's collection of Emo and punk cd's - Dirty Projectors anyone? Thursday, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Pixies, Operation Ivy, Dead Kennedys, Straylight Run, Senses Fail, My Chemical Romance, Tegan and Sara, Elliott Smith. I've packed up the cases that actually have a cd and added a few surprises for him - the Lion King soundtrack, Dwight Yoakum and Zamphir ;)</p> <p>I was SO excited and hoped to be posting the perfect dress today, but alas - it was not to be. I found a stretch, knot front Ted Baker in the same print as the Ted Baker midi in my original thread (for those of you who may remember). But, it didn't work out. The knot sits too low on me and the pink lining, as pretty as it is, hangs out the neckline.</p> <p><a href="http://www.6pm.com/ted-baker-tammar-rose-on-canvas-print-dress-bright-pink" rel="nofollow">http://www.6pm.com/ted-baker-t.....right-pink</a></p> <p>So the Adrianna Papell (size 10) will work just fine unless something else jumps out at me. My husband - sweet guy that he is - said there wasn't any reason not to get *two* dresses : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286645 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 15:11:08 +0000 Anonymous 1286645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a great dress Pil! I vote 10 too. Your hair is lovely btw. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286641 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 15:06:39 +0000 Diana 1286641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote 10 also. I think the slightly more fitted silhouette makes it look more dressy. Both are good though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286636 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 15:02:38 +0000 Beth Ann 1286636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing dress on you, Pil, you're going to look terrific.&nbsp; I like the 10 best, too.&nbsp; I find a little more "fit" works well in a print, while I sometimes size up a bit for a solid.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286611 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 14:35:57 +0000 texstyle 1286611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, close call on the sizing (love the dress). I usually choose the size up when I'm in doubt but I can't see well enough from the pics to know if there is any extra material in the 12. From the side, I prefer the 12 but either one is going to be great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286606 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 14:31:22 +0000 Angie 1286606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote size 10 too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286552 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 12:36:17 +0000 Thin White Duchess 1286552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am wearing this exact dress right now! It is lovely. I think either size will work well for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286506 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 10:54:27 +0000 kkards 1286506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i like the 10 marginally better, but its hard to tell from the pictures. if you think the 10 fits better, so with the 10, if your more comfortable in the 12, keep that one……sorry, not much help! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286503 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 10:50:28 +0000 lyn67 1286503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would go&nbsp;with the&nbsp; the larger ones(if shoulders weren't big and &nbsp;fit well)&nbsp;and you&nbsp;can always&nbsp;take&nbsp;&nbsp;in a just a bit above the&nbsp;waist, if you want.<br /> Great dress!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286469 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:02:13 +0000 Astrid 1286469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That was my vote too! I like the 12 better, although you could do the 10 if it felt more comfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286434 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 06:08:46 +0000 Ginkgo 1286434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look more slender in the size 10, without the dress looking at all too tight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286386 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 04:25:52 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1286386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I like the 10 best overall, but they are very close and both look terrific on you. I like 10 best from the back; from the front it's hard to tell a difference. From the side, I can tell the 10 hugs your body more, and to me that's a bonus. But like others, I say go with what's comfortable, because the 12 does not look too big and the 10 does not look too small.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286313 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 02:30:51 +0000 Debbie 1286313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others go with the dress you feel best in.<br /> I love this dress on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286281 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 01:56:34 +0000 Karie 1286281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous dress! I'm in agreement with Suz and Ceit on the sizing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286274 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 01:51:56 +0000 Suz 1286274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! I was in favour of this dress from the start, as you know. And it will probably serve you elsewhere.&nbsp;</p> <p>As to the size, I'm not 100% sure. I like the 10 better from the front but I am not sure I like it as well from the side view. I would do as Ceit says and go with the one that feels best.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286248 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 01:37:13 +0000 Jules 1286248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The 10! It's giving you a bit more waist definition without reading body con at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286246 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 01:36:53 +0000 columbine(erin) 1286246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look very similar; perhaps the 12 lays a tiny bit better. I like the style and color on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286233 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 01:26:23 +0000 Anonymous 1286233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the size 10 slightly more.&nbsp; The peonies are so pretty.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286221 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 01:17:40 +0000 Anonymous 1286221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think either one looks fab, Pil! Go with the one that feels best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-for-august-wedding---decision-made-almost#post-1286214 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 01:15:06 +0000 pil 1286214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My earlier dress post received many helpful comments, thank you!</p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mega-dress-shopping-for-wedding" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....or-wedding</a></p> <p>I have decided to go with dress #2 the Adrianna Papell. It is lined, needs no alterations and is practical to boot. While pondering I decided to try it in a size 10 because the 12 had plenty of room. I also thought it would be slightly more bodycon to counter the modest neckline. </p> <p>I hope you can see enough in these photo collages - just downloaded a new app </p> <p>Collage 1 is the original size 12<br /> Collage 2 is the new size 10<br /> Pic 3 is included just because the flowers are pretty. They are arrangements left over from the bridal shower for the for this wedding.</p> <p>I *think* the 10 works, do you? </p>
