&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Helena&#060;/b&#062; - I always like to have some blue in my wardrobe, its nice to see more of it being available in retail.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Jaime&#060;/b&#062; - it is a fun dress.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;AJ &#060;/b&#062;- it will be a challenge to make it a true workhorse like my favourite jeans or sneakers, but the happiness factor will make it a worthwhile wardrobe addition.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Catherine &#060;/b&#062;- the dress is comfortable and easy to wear which is what makes it useful for me.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Suz&#060;/b&#062; - I like clothes that allow me to move freely too.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Slim Cat&#060;/b&#062; - the fabric is beautiful.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Robin &#060;/b&#062;- the swooshy skirt is lots of fun, it would be great for dancing...now I have to find an excuse to go dancing!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Runcarla&#060;/b&#062; - I see this as a dress with longevity and not really being part of any particular trend. Something that I hope for with most of my wardrobe purchases.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Jenni &#060;/b&#062;- your DH sounds very similar to mine. Once he gets into something he needs to be an expert! My DH's special subject is Japanese street style, he asks me if I have heard of all sorts of interesting designers, fashion districts and fabrications.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Cardiff Girl &#060;/b&#062;- I find it fun to really embrace glamorous clothing now I am older, much more so than I did when I was younger. I feel comfortable - perhaps as a reaction to the invisibility that being older creates - it just keeps things in balance.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Kyle &#060;/b&#062;- there is something nostalgic about wearing a pretty blue dress for me as when I was a young child my mother would always make sure I had a 'good dress' and it was always blue.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Blue Jay &#060;/b&#062;- the dress has an interesting cross over bodice - which I needed to have slightly altered to really fit me. It is an nice neckline, something different without being revealing.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Suntiger&#060;/b&#062; - as the YLF resident mermaid - that is high praise and I will attempt to do so.&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;You look stunning. Ha to creating a monster- I have done the same with colour matching! If I ever mismatch colours he looks disapproving- and looks so proud if he matches his socks to his technical cycling shirt!

				<description>&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Star&#060;/b&#062; - it is a pretty dress.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Brooklyn&#060;/b&#062; - I was in a rush to get to the party, so did not get to photograph it with the jacket - I will do so next time I wear it.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;UmmLila&#060;/b&#062; - I got this online, so it was great that it ended up being a good fit with just a minor shoulder alteration required.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Dee&#060;/b&#062; - the fabric really sold this dress to me.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Unfrumped&#060;/b&#062; - it is a pretty dress and one that I should wear quite often as whilst dressy, it is not formal and has a bit of a boho vibe.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;LJP&#060;/b&#062; - I always check out the Ulla Johnson on sale as I really love her designs and use of beautiful fabrics.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Nadya&#060;/b&#062; - blue is one of my favourite colours, it was a lucky match with the leather jacket.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Angie&#060;/b&#062; - I know - Hubs has been my fashion understudy but I think he may be surpassing me in the fashion knowledge stakes - I may have created a monster!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Kellygirl&#060;/b&#062; - it is fun to have a new dress to wear to parties!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;SarahD8&#060;/b&#062; - at the time of buying this dress, I was totally unaware of the mermaid trend.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;&#060;b&#062;Sharan&#060;/b&#062; - I am going to make sure I get to wear this dress often as I really enjoy wearing it. Sometimes workhorses don't have to be super practical items as for me, the fun factor will often be the reason why I wear or use an item more than others.&#060;/p&#062;

&#060;p&#062;The white boots and jacket are a great addition for Autumn styling in the Southern hemisphere. Denim jacket is fab too.&#038;nbsp;&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I thought it was fun that Angie mentioned in a recent post that mermaid style was a fringe trend, as when I recently purchased this silk dress, DH commented that it was a mermaid dress!&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;I have worn this three times since purchasing it earlier this month - to a friend's birthday party and out to dinner with friends. The items in Finds is what I wore to the cocktail party. I was debating on whether to wear my silvery glitter heels, but decided against it, as I knew I would be on my feet for hours and decided to wear the boots instead. I was glad I took the practical choice as the seating was limited at the party.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062; Whilst it is dressy, I have found that I can dress it down with my denim jacket.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;This dress will be how I enjoy and wear the fringe mermaid trend.
&#060;/p&#062;
