No way!<br /> Are you keeping and wearing this one to the event?<br /> I agree with Lana though that “I don’t hate it” is not a great way to feel about it. It looks so great I would hope you might gradually fall in love with it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274486 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 18:01:42 +0000 modgrl 2274486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks to all who weighed in on the dresses. I can't figure out how to deal with the back bow on the amazon dress, so it's going back.&nbsp;</p> <p>Good insights on settling Lana and suntiger... One of my style priorities is to stay current. I am pushing myself in a VERY new direction with this prairie dress. I didn't know what to expect wearing a white potato sack. My inclination would always be to stick with something dark and conventionally flattering, but what fun would that be if our styles never evolved?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274392 Thu, 28 Jul 2022 11:06:55 +0000 Anonymous 2274392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that it sounds like you're settling, but like the front of the second dress and the back of the first more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274311 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 23:36:25 +0000 Janet 2274311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I much prefer the first one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274232 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 16:33:34 +0000 Lana 2274232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first one too, but I don’t like the sound of “I’m not so excited, and I don’t hate it” because it feels like you’re settling. I would keep looking to see if you can find something that rings your bell. If you can’t find anything then go for your favorite of these. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274206 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 13:24:16 +0000 RobinF 2274206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for the RM dress. I like the length and the wide ruffle. Plus that back tie on the second dress would be a problem.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274187 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 10:42:31 +0000 Inge 2274187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun to see you sport the first frock! I too love the style and silhouette of that first dress on you:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274180 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 07:34:29 +0000 Jaime 2274180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274179 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 07:31:42 +0000 lyn67 2274179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the first one on you, --and to say it frankly, it is much more current, too. Love the deeper hem on back especialy. You can always take in the ruffles under arm a bit (if you would preffer them not to flutter so wide appart) but I love the dress as it is. Then, you can always temper the volume of the dress with a small crossbody-, or a waist-bag, will&nbsp; give you that little waist you miss now (which I fully understand and can relate to)-but this trick usually works great&nbsp; for me on dresses of that kind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274174 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 05:53:08 +0000 Kathie 2274174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the front of the Amazon one, and the back of the RM. Do you have a white belt or sash that you could try with the RM? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274173 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 05:05:43 +0000 Jessikams 2274173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first one has a much more interesting cut, I think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274169 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 03:57:30 +0000 Jenni NZ 2274169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first one out of sight for me. Still cute but more sophisticated on you than the other. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274166 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 03:31:12 +0000 Jules 2274166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the first one! I think the short length and flirty bottom ruffle reduce any ‘prairie’ vibe and it’s quite flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274156 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 01:32:02 +0000 kellygirl 2274156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chris offered a great tip for those type of dresses with the tie back. I think both are nice but I love the first one especially. So pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274155 Wed, 27 Jul 2022 01:26:55 +0000 MsMaven 2274155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274102 Tue, 26 Jul 2022 20:11:19 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2274102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the second one, and I saw a hack about tying those! Tie the tie with your bra strap going through the initial loop of the bow- you won't see it after you have the full bow tied, and it will keep everything in place. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274100 Tue, 26 Jul 2022 20:02:51 +0000 Angie 2274100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Of these too, I much prefer the first RM dress! So pics #1 and #2. I find it very flattering! It fits extremely well. Gorgeous sleeves and neckline. GREAT length!  </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-find-a-white-dress-1#post-2274084 Tue, 26 Jul 2022 18:56:26 +0000 modgrl 2274084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi All, thanks for everyone who helped me with white dresses for my diner en blanc coming up in August. I ordered two white dresses from the posting on white dresses a few weeks ago.</p> <p>First up: the Rebecca Minkoff featured in the blog post. I was really unsure about this one. I’m not so excited about the shapeless prairie look on me, but I thought I would try it. it looked so cute in the post. I don’t hate it.</p> <p>Second: no-name Amazon dress. I like how the front looks, it gives me a waist, it’s kind of short which I like, it is a little bit juvenile but also fun and flirty. The back is super weird. I cannot figure out how to tie it. </p> <p>I don’t love or hate either of them, and given how much I was worried about a white dress on me I think that is a good sign. So what do you think - do I go with the prairie Rebecca Minkoff dress or the spritely little summer Amazon dress? Or should I start over and try to find something totally different? </p>
