It's fit and flare vs. dropped waist. Mini vs. knee length (on me). Crew neck vs. mock neck (which, contrary to Shedev, I actually think would look great on me, but crewneck is okay too.)&nbsp;</p> <p>To me, this one looks really young. The other one (RM) looks youthful but not trying to be a girl. And ditto the CM &nbsp;-- although of course it is difficult to say if it will read too young when it is on my actual self. We'll see.&nbsp;</p> <p>I know for sure this dress (the white one) would read as <b>WAY</b> too young on me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items/page/2#post-1534236 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 23:15:33 +0000 AviaMariah 1534236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just saw this dress which is kinda-sorta like RM dress. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items/page/2#post-1534106 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 20:01:51 +0000 shedev 1534106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the printed one much better. I think the neckline might be better on you. Can't wait to see it on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items/page/2#post-1533933 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 16:11:08 +0000 Summer 1533933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is beautiful.

The Vince has me covered for that. ;)&nbsp;</p> <p>I was thinking magazines....since I won't have a new book out by October. Alas.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533575 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 02:51:57 +0000 Colette 1533575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I can see why you bought the dress, it's very pretty.

Both would have been too much for my budget. The print one was so much cheaper than the purple one that it seemed like a genuine bargain, ha! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533541 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 02:20:43 +0000 Maneera 1533541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both those dresses. I am glad you decided to indulge yourself!

I will let you know &nbsp;how it goes and of course model it for you.&nbsp;</p> <p>The print is even better in person. I was <b>VERY</b> attracted to it earlier this summer but could not justify it at the regular price. On sale, however, it's a different story.&nbsp;</p> <p>More as soon as it arrives, and thank you!</p> <p>Let's hope it fits -- I don't have any option to size up since I got one of the last ones.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533483 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 01:03:04 +0000 Meow 1533483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your reasoning is brilliant! I buy exercise clothes to motivate me to exercise so why not an award ceremony dress?! Uh oh.....you've got me thinking about the life I want.......I feel a lot of tropical island clothes coming my way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533482 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 01:00:14 +0000 catgirl 1533482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that dress - the print is right up my alley! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533470 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 00:47:38 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1533470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it a lot ... Probably more than the other dress because of the print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533469 Wed, 05 Aug 2015 00:46:55 +0000 Jaime 1533469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your pick!

Anna tried it on and it's very flirty and feminine. Gorgeous quality. REALLY not that formal - and can be dressed down with ease. I hope it works out.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533411 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 23:40:44 +0000 Marilyn 1533411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very sound decision making, Suz.&nbsp; Club Monaco has been doing some lovely dresses.&nbsp; Some are quite short which works out brilliantly for the vertically challenged.&nbsp; I'm going to pop into the store on the weekend to check out the new additions.<br />I still plan to do a walk through at Nordstrom.....although you seem less infatuated with the RT dress than you were.&nbsp; That happens to me as well......I think a bit and go hmmmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533408 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 23:37:10 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1533408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is a great option. &nbsp;I like print dresses for dressier styles. &nbsp;It adds an element that isn't that common. &nbsp;Looking forward to the unveiling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533404 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 23:31:14 +0000 Dee 1533404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I prefer the Club Monaco version. I can definitely see you in it! And I'm sure you'll find reasons to wear it.</p> <p>Sleeveless ponte does seem confusing. Silk might only be seasonally appropriate in one season, but at least there is a defined season! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533388 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 23:05:53 +0000 Deborah 1533388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Go Suz! &nbsp;It's a stunning dress and good on you for finding something closer to home and shopping locally. &nbsp;</p> <p>Suz, from the mouth of Coco Chanel, "Everyday is a fashion show and the world is the runway".. enjoy the dress x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/speaking-of-impractical-wardrobe-items#post-1533380 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 22:56:29 +0000 Peri 1533380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love that print and the floaty layers!!

I feel your pain. </p>
