SOOO short. Shorter than on the model. Very unhappy about that.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1620399 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 01:39:12 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1620399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And note how she looks like the blond version of Vivian, as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1620396 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 01:34:44 +0000 Carla 1620396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that is the dress Emma Thompson wore at TIFF 2013.

The color is actually perfect for all the seasons in my opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1620240 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 19:18:17 +0000 catgirl 1620240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Reminds me a bit of these Eliza J. dresses, which are pretty seasonless...</p> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/eliza-j-ponte-a-line-dress/3924971?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=&amp;resultback=3457" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/el.....alizedsort</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1620203 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 18:34:25 +0000 Peri 1620203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joining the chorus...it looks very Spring to me!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1620032 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 13:22:12 +0000 Zibbets 1620032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ack. Gorgeous! The sleeves and seams are killing me. I think the papaya would be better this time of year than for Christmas. The weight and color might be perfect for Easter/spring.</p> <p>One of the reviews mentions that the waist seems too high. That could be a deal breaker, but I still want to try it on.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1620027 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 12:34:25 +0000 Gail 1620027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the color and the dress. I have a Vince Camuto dress that shade. I have worn it to many things including 3 weddings . Also been worn lots of nights out with all different shoes. I have another wedding in Florida in April and am considering wearing it again, it is so versitaile By the way it was a score at TJ Maxx for $49;99.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1620025 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 12:20:53 +0000 El Cee 1620025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with so many others who have said that this would be a beautiful, multi-season dress -- great for work or a night out. The papaya color is so unique and I bet it would look fabulous on you. For the price, it is definitely worth a try-on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1620016 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 11:17:21 +0000 JamC 1620016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it could be your signature work dress that you are looking for right now. It is beautiful but simple. You need to try it! I am hoping it will also be comfortable. If I were you, I would be leaning toward the papaya. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1620012 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 11:01:44 +0000 Summer 1620012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Since you love it so much, can't you squeeze it into your s/s purchases? &nbsp;I'm sure you will get so much wear from it - another enabler here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619998 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 08:28:57 +0000 Deborah 1619998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's beautiful!

And so I too enable.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619928 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 02:43:06 +0000 Janet 1619928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks rather seasonless, honestly. I think you should try it! Perfect dresses don't come around that often, and that is a beautiful color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619921 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 02:36:19 +0000 Colette 1619921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE this dress, you definitely should try it. I also think it would work for multiple seasons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619908 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 02:17:16 +0000 celia 1619908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>May I politely enable the purchase? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619906 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 02:10:10 +0000 Suz 1619906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous dress. I think you should try it on. No reason you couldn't wear it all year! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619895 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 01:52:03 +0000 Bonnie 1619895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress and I love the reddish color. You should get it.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619889 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 01:43:35 +0000 viva 1619889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Enablers! :)</p> <p>Maybe I will add this to the list of dresses I am trying right now. Angie, was the papaya color very neon? Is the black a better bet? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619884 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 01:25:58 +0000 Angie 1619884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually, I think the Find looks better than the model! And what Ummlila said. I saw it in person today too.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619882 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 01:25:04 +0000 shiny 1619882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I run hot naturally. I still prefer sleeves on my work dresses. Because it gets so cold in air conditioning!!!! My ideal is elbow length.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sleeveless dresses just mean I have to add a topper. There have been times in July or August when I was shivering through a meeting wishing that topper was a puffer....</p> <p>The dress is gorgeous.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619876 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 01:19:42 +0000 Muffin 1619876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a Kate spade red dress with fluted sleeves that I wear three seasons: fall-with leopard heels, winter- black boots and tights (would love to try with gold pumps), spring- nude heels and micro fishnets. I love the dress so I try to get multiple uses. Give it a try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619869 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 01:10:48 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1619869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see why that papaya color would be bad for spring. It's not like the fabric is also wool. This could totally be a nice day dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/dress-misery#post-1619859 Wed, 24 Feb 2016 00:59:11 +0000 viva 1619859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A few years ago, in my pre-YLF days, when I spent a lot more time <i>dreaming about fashion</i>, I used to peruse the Matches Fashion site pretty regularly (it is not a site I really could ever afford -- sort of starts at Intermix and goes up from there). </p> <p>Anyway, there I found the Pandora dress from the British designer, Goat. It's a bell-sleeve dress that is apparently a signature style of theirs; every year or so it comes out in a different color. It's very simple, a bit mod, and I love its lines.</p> <p>Well, JCrew has a knock off right now and I sort of LOVE it. (As usual, the JCrew model photo is so much better than the Find.) But it's the wrong time of year to buy this kind of dress. I wish it were October! This would have been perfect for the holidays. Oh well.</p>
