You look absolutely stupendous in that dress. What a F.A.B. find! I love the diagonal movement of the print too --- very flattering for those curves! This has seriously strong FFBO potential --- the colour would go easily from day to evening with a change of accessories. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifty-goodness#post-665800 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 15:15:18 +0000 Vildy 665800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Let me add to the chorus of You Look Amazing!

What a score. I'm loving those blue hues this season, and I love the kind of water-color plaid-on-the-bias print of the dress. The fit is magnificent on you too! I often have to trust my eye for the size on thrifted items, too. Sometimes the tags are missing or the items are just plain mismarked and that's why they're there (esp. shoes). I'm raising my teacup to your thrifting prowess, Abie! Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifty-goodness#post-665709 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 13:20:03 +0000 lyn67 665709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress and colour, fits you so well---you live in a trifting heaven! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifty-goodness#post-665708 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 13:19:56 +0000 nancylee 665708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. I LOVE that dress on you. Nice accessorizing, too, Abie. I am so very impressed by the thrifting abilities of YLFers. (I need to take some lessons!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifty-goodness#post-665706 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 13:19:50 +0000 Transcona Shannon 665706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Va va voom!!! You are rockin' your gorgeous curves in this dress Abie! This might be my favourite dress to date. Stunning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifty-goodness#post-665705 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 13:19:33 +0000 Sara L. 665705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great thrifting luck! The dress looks great on you! I like the black shoes with it and your cardigan really makes me want to look for some short-sleeved sweaters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---thrifty-goodness#post-665701 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 13:16:41 +0000 Abie 665701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I am wearing a dress that I thrifted for 5 bucks. When I found it there were no size or brand tags, but it looked like it could work. I tried it on and not only did it fit, it fit really nice. I like the colors and pattern on this too. I found out later that it is actually from Avenue last year and that the dress ran huge for size so if I were to find another resale (There are several colors/patterns of this dress) I would likely need to size down. Good to know. </p> <p>It's wet again today but not pouring, so I paired with my Jambu strappy sandals which have a 2 inch heel and 3/4 inch platform. Hopefully these will suffice today for staying dry. </p> <p>Added a simple necklace. Decided to throw on a cardi since it's wet and might be cool under the AC.</p> <p>Overall I like this a lot. I would have preferred to pair with different shoes but decided to make a safe choice for a wet day.</p> <p>Dress - Avenue Thrifted<br /> Shoes - Jambu<br /> Cardigan - Old Navy<br /> Necklace - ?
