I can see you (and Inge) in this COS dress. Find below.</p> <p><b>Lyn67</b>, YES. I got the pink Boden lace dress. SOOOOO pretty. But needs to be altered and I can's size down.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889905 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 12:58:09 +0000 Inge 1889905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too really like it on you, Carla, but also completely get why you are holding out for a white shirt dress. Fingers crossed you find the perfect one!-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889901 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 12:47:30 +0000 lyn67 1889901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it in navy! And in that fuchsia on their webpage, too-which I think is the color Angie got herself one, isn't it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889853 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 05:38:04 +0000 jussie 1889853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my it’s beautiful. Thanks for showing us. I’m quite tempted by it.... no idea if it would suit me however.<br /> Gosh runcarla are you sure you don’t want it?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889837 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 04:05:19 +0000 Suz 1889837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I'm so excited you got the loafers.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm awfully tempted by the dress myself. Eyelet feels a bit dainty for me, too, though. But I love the. hem. It seems as if interesting hemlines are going to feature this spring.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889797 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 02:24:31 +0000 Emily K 1889797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This dress is too dainty for me, but YAY! for the loafers! &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889787 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 02:02:17 +0000 Carla 1889787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Angie! The quality is amazing, and I would like to have this dress in my closet just because it is SO BEAUTIFUL! I tried on some COS in Amsterdam this past fall and liked their aesthetic. Thanks for the guidance. I WILL check them out!</p> <p>Bonnie and Sal picked up on why it just wouldn't work for me.</p> <p>PS - the loafers I posted about earlier live in my closet as of yesterday! They are dreaming of S/S to come! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889780 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 01:48:21 +0000 LaPed 1889780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for modelling, for those of us who don't live anywhere near a BR. :)&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm so tempted by this dress (and the Boden lace dresses too), even though it's probably a bit too dainty for me, and I already have some great summer dress options.</p> <p>In the US online store, it looks like there's no petite navy option... bummer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889776 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 01:42:51 +0000 Angie 1889776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, <b>Carla.</b> Really appreciate you showing us like this. You are sooo fab. </p> <p>It’s like a designer piece, don’t you think? Gorgeous quality. The dress is a similar length on me. </p> <p>Actually, I will be wearing this as a casual dress with white flats and sneaks. And denim jacket when I need it. </p> <p>Totally see why you want a shirt dress instead. This IS a dainty dress despite the drama. Try COS. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889773 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 01:36:41 +0000 Sal 1889773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun to see it on you Carla - it is a lovely lovely dress!!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>And you do you look great in it too.&nbsp; Definitely the dress when the Mother tells the Tomboy she has to put on a dress for the birthday dinner or school prizegiving or family photos (speaking here as a tomboy who was told this on several occasions). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889772 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 01:33:12 +0000 Bonnie 1889772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for sharing. It is a beautiful dress and will be perfect for summer events. I agree that it is a sweet dress and maybe a shirtdress would be better for us Elegant Tomboys. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889768 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 01:26:32 +0000 Carla 1889768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A white summer dress is a HEWI. Exactly a year ago on my style review I posted the pic below as an aspirational outfit. I didn't find anything, and have started the search again for this S/S. When Angie posted the dress and said it came in white, I thought it was worth a try.</p> <p>Having met Angie, I totally understand how this would be fabulous on her. I find it a little dainty for my tomboy (Elegant Tomboy!) style and think I would be better off sticking to my guns and looking for a white shirt dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889767 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 01:24:57 +0000 Anonymous 1889767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it in navy. &nbsp;Less precious . &nbsp;You look really nice in this - and the #3 version seems to fit well. BR dresses are a nightmare for me - I don't even bother to try them on anymore.. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889761 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 01:14:45 +0000 Style Fan 1889761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is a pretty dress.&nbsp; I like #3 on you.&nbsp; I have never tried BR dresses or really much from BR.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889760 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 01:09:48 +0000 Windchime 1889760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The white is beautiful on you! Too bad the store didn't have it in your size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889752 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 01:03:57 +0000 Suz 1889752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh-- thank you! Online you can't get the blue in Canada. I'd probably want to try petite for length. It looks like a really lovely dress. I like #3 on you a lot, in fact.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-angie%e2%80%99s-br-dress#post-1889731 Thu, 15 Feb 2018 00:01:40 +0000 Carla 1889731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The BR in the Toronto Eaton Centre has the dress in stock from size 0-14 in both colours, though some sizes are gone already. I’m 5ft 7in and 36-30-38. I tried the 10(navy) and the 8(white). </p> <p>The 8 felt snug and the 10 better though still a little tightly packed across the chest and shoulders. I would be inclined to pick off the 3rd ruffle and wear it shorter. But in the end I left it in the store. I am looking for white and they didn’t have a 10 or a 12 in white that I could try.</p> <p>The quality is very fine and a steal ($215.CA and currently 40% off). I think it would fit a person with narrower shoulders and small bust very well. It would be perfect for a wedding guest or any warm summer party or even a date night.</p> <p>Sorry for the quality of the pics but the change rooms are horrid! They should give you an idea of the garment on a non-model body, though. </p>
