While I was in the fitting room, there was a group of women sitting on the sofas in there. I had to come out of the room to use the 3-way mirror. When I was looking at the red one, they said, "That's so cute!" and when I came out in the yellow polka dot one, they said they liked the red one better. So I got some unsolicited opinions which ended up being super helpful. I love it when that happens. </p> <p>Anyway, so I ended up with the red one. And I tried on Laura's Bailey 44 dress in navy:</p> <p><a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/clothes-dresses/24737371.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.anthropologie.com/a.....737371.jsp</a></p> <p>It was really cute and super comfortable! I'm going to have to think about it. :)</p> <p>Thanks again everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-650085 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 16:02:14 +0000 Ana 650085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much for all your opinions, everyone! It's really helpful. I'm headed to Anthro later today to try them both on again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-650038 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 15:14:16 +0000 Laura 650038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, lemon drop yellow - maybe too sour, I can imagine that. Definitely take the necklace with you. You and tomato red are a match made in heaven! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-650017 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 14:56:24 +0000 Jonesy 650017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with everyone about the red! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-650012 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 14:54:34 +0000 Angie 650012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Red :)</p> <p>That mango shade of yellow could be just a little off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649905 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 13:01:02 +0000 Ana 649905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much everyone! </p> <p>Laura, thanks for the suggestion. The necklace is yellow, but it's a sour yellow so I'm not sure if it would go with the tone of red. I'm headed to the store this afternoon, so maybe I will wear my necklace and see. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649891 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 12:24:45 +0000 Anonymous 649891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They're both great, but I'm really drawn to the red one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649890 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 12:24:17 +0000 Meredith1953 649890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both a pretty and perfect for you but that polka dot is so extra special! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649887 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 12:19:05 +0000 Laura 649887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Red! What color is your JCrew bubble necklace? I am envisioning it with the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649836 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 06:15:02 +0000 Alecia 649836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One has polka dots. No question. Polka dots win out over solids. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649805 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 04:32:45 +0000 Deborah 649805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you can only have one I say the yellow polka dot. The color is so you and the polka dots make this such a special dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649802 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 04:28:14 +0000 ManidipaM 649802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ana, I'm now as cheerfully uncertain as you If it's a long-term piece, I would lean towards the red for complexion flattery and greater versatility. I know you can be witty enough in putting together your outfits without extra help from a print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649776 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 03:43:44 +0000 Lyn D. 649776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are good! Maybe the red if you don't already have a similar dress? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649774 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 03:39:47 +0000 Ana 649774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much for all the opinions, everyone! It looks like the gold polka dot is winning out. :)</p> <p>I've tried on both dresses and both colors are good on me, although the red is slightly better (it's an orangey-red, which is an especially good color for me). </p> <p>Lol, Shannon! You're a woman after my own heart. I actually considered getting both, but I figured I would probably end up wearing one much more than the other (as is usually the case), so I'm trying to decide between the two. </p> <p>VC, I do have a lot of red pieces, hee hee. I appreciate reading over your reasoning. :)</p> <p>Manidipa, I usually look for clothes that I can wear for the next few years. Our summers are very long here, so ideally I could wear this dress April-October for the next few years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649770 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 03:31:57 +0000 Sveta 649770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yellow is more unique and more fun </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649769 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 03:31:43 +0000 ManidipaM 649769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The red would be very pretty on you and versatile, but the yellow is really that extra bit more special.</p> <p>Are you looking for a versatile piece to wear into next season and lots of ways, or a fun piece to play with a few ways just for this season? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649766 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 03:30:19 +0000 Tanya 649766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for gold polka dots So much fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649755 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 03:17:33 +0000 velvetychocolate 649755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very tough choice! I like the red colour for you, but I love the gold polka dot dress too! </p> <p>Ok, clearly - I'm no help. It would be handy if the red dress came in polka-dot, but I guess not, eh? </p> <p>Meanwhile, red is one of my favourite colours, so this might be influencing my opinion in a way that isn't quite fair. </p> <p>You know what? In the end, I think I'd go for the polka dot in the gold colour, just because it's different. I'm sure you have lots of red pieces, but you probably don't have a polka-dot gold dress? I'm already imagining the gold polka dot dress with a cropped,fabulously faded denim jacket, some cream coloured accessories and the like. Maybe a 'pop of colour' in the form of a red clutch? </p> <p>Maybe the red (although fabulous) is just too predictable? </p> <p>Ok - enough said - I vote polka dots </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649748 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 03:09:16 +0000 Sheila 649748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I instantly reacted with glee when I saw the yellow polka dot dress. Looks to me like both would work with your hair and coloring, but the polka dots are WAY more fun!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649743 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 03:01:58 +0000 Transcona Shannon 649743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both!</p> <p>Sorry....got carried away there...I'm in love with the yellow dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649742 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 03:01:32 +0000 Debbie 649742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the red one for you. With your coloring I think it would look stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649735 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 02:57:50 +0000 ironkurtin 649735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the yellow polka dots are wittier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-this-dress-color#post-649734 Wed, 20 Jun 2012 02:56:42 +0000 Ana 649734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Everyone!</p> <p>I am still on the hunt for dressy-casual summer dresses and I saw these on the Anthropologie website:</p> <p><a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/clothes-dress-fitflare/24518987.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.anthropologie.com/a.....518987.jsp</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/baynote/24178840.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.anthropologie.com/a.....178840.jsp</a></p> <p>They are basically the same dress, but different colors and patterns. I like both colors and I can't decide. I'd love some second opinions. :)</p> <p>Thank you! </p>
