But the dress is such a beautiful color, I'll make it work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1711246 Wed, 10 Aug 2016 11:43:28 +0000 bella 1711246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good for you! I hear you completely. I actually bought 3 black dresses this summer (in a single online order), and I do not regret the purchase in the slightest. One of them is a very flattering, special occasion dress that was very affordable and I want to keep it in the closet in case an occasion comes up unexpectedly. The other two have completely different silhouettes and I have already worn them and enjoyed them!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1710840 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 15:31:21 +0000 unfrumped 1710840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well good on you! No problem.<br /> The main thing I think of is to buy dresses that you can actually wear when taking into account where you will go in them and what supporting sct is needed.<br /> For example, whilst dresses never rain on me. I still have to watch out for dresses thst seem to demand s high heel of tgat want open toe footwear or need a topper ( if said topper is elusive) of us seasonally confused. These will become orphans. But if a dress " fits" into easy use, then I would buy them all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1710616 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 03:19:42 +0000 Tanya 1710616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much, lovely ladies, for making me feel not to bad about my crazy dress spree.&nbsp; And my apologies for not replying to this thread earlier, life is very hectic these days, ans I extremely exhausted all the time (thyroid issues).</p> <p>C1, I am glad to hear somebody else got 8 or more dresses this season too :)</p> <p>UmmLila, my internship continues for 4 or so more weeks, and I am using every single day of it to wear a dress or a skirt.</p> <p>Columbine, I am sure that the WHBM dress looks lovely on you.</p> <p>Tulle, I am sorry to hear you had some issues with the neckline of the blue J Crew dress.&nbsp; It worked fine for me despite my smaller chest (30D), it could be due to the fact that I have decent shoulders, they are are not dainty by any means and keep the "v" of dress in place if that makes sense.&nbsp; I am sure it will look gorgeous on you for the wedding,&nbsp; Worst case scenario you could try to find a lacy cami/bandeau in similar color so it looks intentional.</p> <p>ElizabethP, I am just about to post a couple of outfits with some of the dresses :)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1710393 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 19:24:43 +0000 Anonymous 1710393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fabulous dress haul Tanya!

I go through stages when I buy several dresses then don't for a few years. I am due to find more in this next year.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1710375 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 18:52:04 +0000 Elizabeth P 1710375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, good for you!&nbsp; What a great haul.&nbsp; Looking forward to seeing them ALL on you (hint hint) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1710372 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 18:39:54 +0000 tulle 1710372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As Colette said, when you see the perfect dress(es) you've got to pounce, or live to regret it!&nbsp; I bought that wonderful blue J. Crew dress, too, thinking it would be perfect for a Mad Men-themed wedding in Napa this September (with the addition of a crinoline and some vintage jewelry.)&nbsp; Tell me, do you find the neckline at all problematic?&nbsp; I have a small, high bust, and am trying to fill in a bit with a lacy blue bra &amp; a little padding, but I still feel exposed. I will be wrapping that sash very tightly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1709439 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 19:49:24 +0000 Style Fan 1709439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing in dresses so enjoy every one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1709425 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 19:12:43 +0000 Colette 1709425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your dresses are lovely! It's either feast or famine with dresses so when you find one that fits and you love it, you need to pounce. Especially at those prices, that is some smart shopping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1709407 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 18:16:24 +0000 columbine(erin) 1709407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Heh. So I just ordered the WHBM draped knit dress. It's at an irresistible price. I've never bought anything there and I think it may be overwhelmingly long on me, but I had to try. </p> <p>You look so great in dresses, and dresses really can be so hard to find. Enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1709339 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 15:29:42 +0000 Jane 1709339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a lovely collection of dresses.

I have no doubt that you look stunning in each of them, they are all beautiful, and a good variety of styles.</p> <p>So enjoy and wear the heck out of them!-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-summer-is-raining-dresses#post-1708539 Fri, 05 Aug 2016 14:42:52 +0000 chewyspaghetti 1708539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good for you, Tanya!
