You look adorable. Congrats on your newly acquired Veteran status! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-609202 Tue, 01 May 2012 14:58:47 +0000 lynne 609202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the print! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-609061 Tue, 01 May 2012 08:56:00 +0000 Deborah 609061@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very clever pattern! Are crawfish the same as prawns? They look the same.</p> <p>Congrats on becoming a veteran:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-609041 Tue, 01 May 2012 06:41:12 +0000 goldenpig 609041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on being a veteran! I love conversational prints and the crawfish dress is really fun! I love clothes that have secret details. Though I don't think I could wear it...I don't like eating anything with a shell or eyes! I tend to like boneless pieces of meat/fish otherwise I get a little wigged out by eating things that are looking at me, haha. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608985 Tue, 01 May 2012 04:45:28 +0000 Amy 608985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608925 Tue, 01 May 2012 03:08:25 +0000 Beth Ann 608925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great color, shape and back story, Sara! I'm a new "Veteran" too. Strange, but I feel that a little pressure to live up to the label! No worries for you! This look is easy and flattering! Oh -- and I envy you your laundry room! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608752 Tue, 01 May 2012 00:48:10 +0000 Echo 608752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the print on the dress! Conversational prints are so much fun in general; not everything has to be the same old floral or geometric pattern! And congrats on veteran status - is that based on time or number of posts? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608731 Tue, 01 May 2012 00:29:44 +0000 Kate 608731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The crawdaddys on your dress are a LOT cuter than the real thing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608682 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 23:49:31 +0000 JennyAnne 608682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's so fun! I didn't see the crawfish until I saw the second photo, and I was looking for something other than flowers! I can see how others miss it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608623 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 22:51:49 +0000 Jjsloane 608623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually like it a lot. Like you said you have to look closely to see what it is and it fits you nicely. Not for everyday, but it's what I would call having fun with fashion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608615 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 22:47:00 +0000 Sara L. 608615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone, for the compliments on the print! Last summer one of my friends told me it should be featured on "What Not to Wear", so it's nice to know someone besides me likes it.</p> <p>ManidipaM - I got the dress from a friend who went to New Orleans for the Jazz Fest a few years ago. She bought the dress at a booth at the festival but didn't try it on until she got back to Albuquerque and then found out it didn't fit. She gave it to me thinking I could wear it since she had no way to return it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608473 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 19:13:50 +0000 modgrl 608473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is just delicious!! I would love to have a dress like this for summer vacations at the shore. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608447 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 18:48:05 +0000 Transcona Shannon 608447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AAAHHHHH - this dress is so COOL!!! Love it!<br /> And congrats on the veteran status! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608445 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 18:46:06 +0000 ManidipaM 608445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a NOVEL of a conversational print! Wow, Sara --- I didn't *see* the crawfish at first either. Where'd you find 'em? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608350 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 17:03:48 +0000 Suz 608350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic print!

I clicked on the close-up and still didn't see crawfish 'til you told me so! Haha! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608344 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 17:01:49 +0000 christieanne 608344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect for first day of Jazz Fest (which we could all meet up there lol!). I do love the sandals as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608337 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 16:58:40 +0000 MsMary 608337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Veteran's Day, Sara!! :)</p> <p>What a fun dress!! You look great! Love those kitten-heel sandals! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-a-veteran-and-a-doozy-of-a-conversational-print#post-608332 Mon, 30 Apr 2012 16:56:48 +0000 Sara L. 608332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a veteran! I'm not sure exactly when that happened. I've been absent from the forum for a few days. I was out of town for 3 days at a conference and then super busy afterwards. </p> <p>Also, here's a real doozy of a conversational print. Someone gave me this dress and I pull it out every year and see who notices the crawfish. Most people don't look that close and just think it's a floral print. </p>
