Thanks for your help. It's hard to pass up that dress but I am afraid Angie is right about the sleeves, and it seems like most you think the blouse is a better option. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530625 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 01:48:23 +0000 Angie 530625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is CRAZY cold in your neck of the woods at the moment. (My Papa is wearing two scarves in the Netherlands!)</p> <p>I vote pass on the dress - the sleeves might overwhelm you. Love the blouse though. Will look cool with your faded jeans and light boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530529 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 00:30:45 +0000 Transcona Shannon 530529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the blouse in #4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530527 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 00:30:06 +0000 Jjsloane 530527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very pretty print. I like both items. I could see the dress as a tunic with leggings or skinnies as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530475 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 23:46:35 +0000 Jewell 530475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! You are not off your rocker. I say go for it, especially since you can't stop thinking about it. My vote would be the blouse- so so versatile. I'm imagining three ways to style it as I type. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530463 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 23:28:10 +0000 Meredith1953 530463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very pretty fabric. I love it in the blouse. So feminine! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530442 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:58:33 +0000 kellygirl 530442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is so you! I love the look of the dress--feminine and slightly bohemian. I think the top is lovely too but rather sheer and has that nehru (?) collar thing going on which I'm not crazy about. I'd give it a bash. It looks like something you could wear with a scarf now and sans scarf come spring. It's lovely. Go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530419 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 22:35:29 +0000 sarah 530419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's so lovely, Scarlet - I could totally see this on you. I might opt for the blouse, as it seems more versatile. But either would be great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530367 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 21:22:48 +0000 jayne 530367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>beautiful chinese spring cherry trees pattern....I see why you are drawn. I prefer the blouse for wearability and longevity...the dress is so special that you may lose interest in it after awhile </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530361 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 21:14:14 +0000 Scarlet 530361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lyn* I am not worried about the length--it will be knee length on me for sure. Yes, the blouse is sheer and would require appropriate undergarments, or overgarments, I suppose. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530322 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 20:49:05 +0000 Nakidra 530322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are not off your rocker!! I like this print, but I'm into florals and patterns. It's speaking to you for a reason so I suggest that you talk back! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530318 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 20:47:48 +0000 lyn* 530318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This fabric/print speaks to me too! Are you worried about the length of this dress? I think the sleeves are fine; but they may poof more in real life. I have definitely worn poofy sleeves to work!</p> <p>I sort of like the top more than the dress; it seems more versatile (with a cami underneath, of course). However, it seems like the dress may be more flexible in your closet!</p> <p>I don't think you're off your rocker </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/thoughts-on-this-dress-or-shirt#post-530307 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 20:44:48 +0000 Scarlet 530307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been obsessed with this fabric pattern since the beginning of the fall season, and now there are major mark downs. I first lusted after the dress but hesitated because of the poofy sleeves, concerned they are not petite or work friendly. The fabric is a wool mix (appealing to me) and I don't have many long-sleeved dresses. I tried the blouse on in-store. I really liked it, but it was a tad too big. The smaller size is still available online. Thoughts? Should I hold out for new spring digs (it is -14 C as we speak) or listen to the pounding of my pulse for this pattern? I think my first love is the dress, but the blouse seems like an easy-to-wear piece.</p> <p>Yay - something, please specify which<br /> Nay - Scarlet, you are off your rocker </p>
