But they both look great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-354151 Sun, 22 May 2011 19:47:41 +0000 Anonymous 354151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look good, but I like #1 best. I like the length better and am not a fan of the cap sleeves on the blue dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-354138 Sun, 22 May 2011 19:05:05 +0000 Steph 354138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both look great, so you can't go wrong. I would decide based on color and contrast. Does one look better with your skintone than the other? If so, go with that. If you feel both work well, is one color less represented in your wardrobe than the other? If so, go with that. If not...go with the consensus here, I guess! </p> <p>I noticed you tried the blue dress on with two different nude colored shoes. In case you hadn't considered it, I think it would look great with the red shoes in dress one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-354134 Sun, 22 May 2011 18:48:42 +0000 nancylee 354134@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think #1 is a knockout, and #2 is very nice. If you must choose I'd go for #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-354084 Sun, 22 May 2011 16:30:35 +0000 bella 354084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote #2 because I am not a pattern person. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-354057 Sun, 22 May 2011 15:56:08 +0000 rute 354057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oh.. this is so difficult because both dresses are a dream!!!!!!!<br /> You look amazing in both!<br /> Can't you keep both? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-354049 Sun, 22 May 2011 15:48:06 +0000 Angie 354049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no! I love both too. I think I'm with boyfriend though. I have a slight preference for the white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353996 Sun, 22 May 2011 12:27:26 +0000 Isis 353996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are beautiful dresses; you can't go wrong with either.</p> <p>I slightly prefer the B &amp; W....BUT, I'm not sure if it is because it is more difficult to photograph the blue dress because it's dark. AND you've styled the B &amp; W in with a great belt and shoes.....</p> <p>Which do you feel most fab in? That's the one you should keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353981 Sun, 22 May 2011 10:39:57 +0000 Sally 353981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 the best too. Pity you can't keep both tho. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353962 Sun, 22 May 2011 08:49:44 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 353962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What else is in your closet? Are you looking to fill a gap or looking for a dress for a particular occasion? Are either of them similar to what you already have? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353960 Sun, 22 May 2011 08:42:48 +0000 krishnidoux 353960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you must choose, I vote #1.</p> <p>The pattern is fun, yet cut is pristine, flattering to bust in a tasteful way, your legs are amazing, length is perfect for them: the overall effect is playful and relaxed yet polished. Accessorizing/jacket potential is vast.</p> <p>The blue one also fits you well but looks more constricted. The detailing in the cut may not be so forgiving in the long run. What I mean is, I am slim myself but I know in a dress with folds + bow in front I would tend to suck my stomach a little more and therefore not feel as relaxed in it, especially after a meal </p> <p>The blue dress, although solid color, actually leaves less room for interpretation and variety. The design pretty much sets the tone: skin tone pumps, few jewellery, fewer jacket options, special occasion only. </p> <p>Now I agree with QM that it is harder to see and judge without seeing your face. Maybe that blue is amazing with your eyes. Look at Carla Sarkozy: she always wear that blue with very few accessories, because it suits her eyes so beautifully, her eyes become jewellery themselves. o who knows? But for versatility, I would pick #1. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353959 Sun, 22 May 2011 08:20:21 +0000 anne 353959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They both look great but if you really can't keep both I'd vote for No1 but only if you are sure it is flattering to your face </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353953 Sun, 22 May 2011 07:07:02 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 353953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Any way you can keep both? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353916 Sun, 22 May 2011 03:28:23 +0000 Jyoti 353916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #1! The print is great, and it won't date. I feel like #2 is nice, but kind of boring, whereas #1 really pops more and would be great for spring, but would also transition nicely to other seasons (depending on the fabric). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353913 Sun, 22 May 2011 03:24:42 +0000 Jenava 353913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>keep both! Sorry, I'm no help...</p> <p>I'm going to guess that your BF likes the white because it is a classic silhouette, while your GFs like the blue because of the interesting and fashionable pleating? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353910 Sun, 22 May 2011 03:22:06 +0000 rae 353910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The white patterned one is WOW! The other is flattering, but just an average dress, IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353902 Sun, 22 May 2011 02:57:49 +0000 qfbrenda 353902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like both and would keep both if you can. If not, I would keep the patterned one since it's more interesting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353901 Sun, 22 May 2011 02:56:31 +0000 MNsara 353901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm, based on what I can see, I vote for the black&amp;white one. It fits beautifully, love the interesting print, love the red belt, and the red shoes. I am having a hard time seeing the details of the blue dress as it's quite dark.</p> <p>The blue one is an inch or two shorter, maybe that's why the GFs like it more? But you could always shorten the B&amp;W one.</p> <p>lyn* - you may be close in age to Domina's GFs AND you picked the blue one - care to share your reasons why?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353900 Sun, 22 May 2011 02:47:45 +0000 Patty 353900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hard choice-coz you look great in both--how different is the B&amp;W from the rest of your wardrobe? I lean toward the B&amp;W. Also--how tall are you?? You look tall --but I say that of everyone! LOL. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353899 Sun, 22 May 2011 02:31:03 +0000 annette 353899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The one on the left...you look amazing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353894 Sun, 22 May 2011 01:51:47 +0000 lyn* 353894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blue! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353890 Sun, 22 May 2011 01:29:30 +0000 Queen Mum 353890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is hard to assess without your face in the picture, but from what I see, I vote for #1. It is more interesting. However, high contrast prints are not flattering on everyone, so perhaps your girlfriends are seeing something we can't see. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353876 Sun, 22 May 2011 00:11:01 +0000 Meredith 353876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the one with white as well. Gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353874 Sun, 22 May 2011 00:09:49 +0000 Linn 353874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they are both fab on you. I'm leaning toward #1 cause I love the red belt/shoes with it - so spiffy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-which-dress#post-353870 Sun, 22 May 2011 00:04:44 +0000 Domina 353870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to keep one of these dresses and return the other. My boyfriend prefers the white one on the left but all my girlfriends prefer the blue one on the right.</p> <p>Help me choose please! </p>
