				<description>&#060;p&#062;Oh, I love this dress.  I don't notice any elastic in the arms. Since it bothers you, could the elastic be easily removed without compromising the dress?

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Love the dress! Angie is right: it loves you back. Yay for coming to terms with the asymmetrical hems, too.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thank you to everyone for your lovely comments!  &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Hee, Janet, no you are not the only one.  I saw it too, but I figured it's just my imagination getting the better of me.  I think this is why I prefer the dress in motion.  It doesn't really bother me enough to be a dealbreaker though.  &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Jjsloane, yes my Anthro top is also a size smaller than I normally wear.  I actually tried on one that was 2 sizes smaller in the store and it fit fine too, but I really wanted this print, which was only available in the larger of the 2 sizes.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I love the dress, but am I the only one who sees a face in the pattern? I'm notorious for seeing these things, and once I see them I can't unsee them!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;The dress looks great on you. I have that top too (same print) and love it. I bought it, returned it and rebought it (when the price dropped $30). Doesn't if fit wonderfully? I had to size down a few and could have gone one more.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Love the dress!  It is wild and fabulous.  You look great in it.  Wear it with confidence!  I like how the sleeves float away at the wrist.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;What a unique and interesting dress.  It looks great on you.  Fabulous top, it looks so cool and comfy yet has polish all it's own.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I bet you would draw stares walking down the street in these.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;You look mega fabulous in that dress, Diana! You adore bright vibrant clothing so big thumbs up from me because it adores you back:). I see no problem with the arm elastic. And very cute pose in #3. I bet this dress will look fab with your blue toenails. &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;And I love a gal who owns up and eats her words! That's part of the fun that we all have with fashion. Just look at how many times I've eaten my words!!! - skinnies (although in 6 weeks I was hooked and still am), gold, harem pants. So there you go.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Super fab asymmetrical top to boot!
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Picked up this mesh BCBG dress at TJ Maxx this afternoon.  What do you all think?  The print is rather crazy (blue/black/white/purple/yellow tiger stripe-ish) but I rather like it.  It looks better in motion, I think, hence the weird pose in photo #3.  There is some weird elastic in the upper arms which I would prefer were not there (it's a bit constricting but nothing major) - but can you even tell there is elastic there?  Apologies for the terrible mirror photos... this is why I don't do WIWs!  &#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Also, bonus for Angie: I am officially eating my words.  A while ago, you posted about flowy tops that are shorter in front and I emphatically said &#034;no way!&#034;.  But here I am wearing one... apparently the trick is to find one that is long enough that it won't tent in front.  The top is this one from Anthro (although my pattern is apparently no longer available):  &#060;a href=&#034;http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?navAction=jump&#038;#038;id=19992361&#038;#038;parentid=SEARCH_RESULTS&#038;#038;color=015&#034; rel=&#034;nofollow&#034;&#062;http://www.anthropologie.com/a.....;color=015&#060;/a&#062;
