I love the print and colors of the dress, but the shoulders are tricky and I don't care for the lack of tailoring in the back. I think especially in light of today's blog post I am in favor of the machine-washable fab woven top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-392072 Tue, 26 Jul 2011 18:56:09 +0000 RoseandJoan 392072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah so the dress appears to be the favourite, Angie raises a good point about the sleeve length, it is not my best. Something to ponder.</p> <p>I am still quite keen on the blouse which has received more of a mixed response, it is machine washable and I am on the dressier end of the MOTG spectrum.Jonesy, it is the shoulder detail which appeals to me also.</p> <p>I'm going to try and not pull the trigger until tomorrow and see how I feel.</p> <p>Asking the forum helped my itch subside, thank you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391734 Tue, 26 Jul 2011 02:11:27 +0000 Jonesy 391734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like both! The detailing on the blouse sleeves is very interesting. I love the cut of the dress and the fabric/pattern. Can't go wrong with either! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391716 Tue, 26 Jul 2011 01:57:53 +0000 Freckles 391716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the dress on you but frankly if you're not sure whether or not you'll be a SAHM in the near future I'd pass on both of them... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391665 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 23:35:59 +0000 Angie 391665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the blouse! I think it's perfect for MOTG and your work wardrobe. </p> <p>I like the dress too. Not entirely in love with the sleeves but it's not a deal breaker. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391644 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 22:40:39 +0000 taylor 391644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress...of course!</p> <p>I love the white tunic. If you stay at home it would look fab with skinnies!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391622 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 22:01:10 +0000 Deborah 391622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress. It's is stunning. The blouse I think could become a bit of a workhorse. I see so many options foe wearing it. Tucked, untucked, with skirt, with a straight leg pant, under a shift dress. And lots of ways to accessorize it:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391610 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 21:49:10 +0000 Debbie 391610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would love to talk you into that dress. I thinkit would look smashing on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391608 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 21:41:35 +0000 Astrid 391608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure about the blouse, it looks like the fabric could be a bit see-through and I personally don't like that with white pieces. I love love love the dress though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391587 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 20:40:17 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 391587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab dress! Not sure about the blouse. If you had unlimited money would you choose this above another? I can see you looking fab in it, though. Is it washable? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391568 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 20:23:24 +0000 Ginny 391568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yay for dress, great colors </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391560 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 20:10:40 +0000 Rachel 391560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for dress.<br /> Ho hum for shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391556 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 20:07:37 +0000 MNsara 391556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for the dress. If and when you *need* an ivory blouse, there should be plenty to choose from.</p> <p>A good dress at a deep discount, however, is a treasure. This presumes that the dress will fit and flatter and this one looks good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391555 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 20:07:23 +0000 Ornella 391555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nay for the blouse, yay yay for the gorgeous dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391550 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 20:02:30 +0000 rae 391550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well! I like them both - the shirt is very versatile, and the dress is a nice office length and has sleeves! </p> <p>Will either of these fill holes? Will either duplicate? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391548 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 19:56:25 +0000 AJ 391548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The blouse doesn't have a wow factor, but it is a good basic and a silk blend is always nice.</p> <p>The dress is very pretty and I like the artsy/graphic houndstooth design. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391547 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 19:54:48 +0000 annagybe 391547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is amazing. I do like the blouse too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391546 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 19:52:28 +0000 modgrl 391546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DRESS!! You get a whole head to toe polished look with just one purchase.<br /> Did I mention that I love the dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391543 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 19:49:28 +0000 RoseandJoan 391543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Mo, I love your honesty </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391540 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 19:48:30 +0000 Mo 391540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a yay for the dress but a ho hum on the shirt, personally. I understand that itch all too well!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/talk-me-in-or-out-of-these-impulse-buys#post-391538 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 19:46:57 +0000 RoseandJoan 391538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have that itch, well it's now beyond an itch and more of a twitch, you know the one, it's your body's way of saying shop....SHOP!!! I need to buy something and for once I have seen things which I do want to buy but as I am following a compulsion I would love your input into these two items.</p> <p>(I'm sorry I have no direct links for the items)</p> <p>#1 - heavily reduced silk/ cotton blend blouse which I picture being worn dressed up or down or classically for the office.</p> <p>#2 - heavily discounted 100% machine washable silk dress which again I can picture dressed up or to the office.</p> <p>I do need to update my work wardrobe but in light of my eldest daughters health issues I may be a stay at home Mum in the not so distant future. </p>
