I do remember this dress from last year, although I can't remember what I said -- possibly that I might feel uncomfortable at work in a dress that length. BUT....not if I were your age, with your legs, and had styled it as you did. This is perfect, and you should wear the heck out of it!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995711 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 23:00:31 +0000 Karie 995711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it, and I wish I had the body to wear it like you do! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995688 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 22:32:17 +0000 hedgiehog 995688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great on you. You have a lovely figure and I don't think it's too bodycon for a casual office setting. YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995686 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 22:29:57 +0000 Anonymous 995686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't remember what I said about this dress last year, but I really like it this year! I often feel self conscious in dresses that others wouldn't give a second thought to wearing. Indeed I wouldn't look twice at anyone wearing a dress like this, except to admire it. I hope you will be able to get it out more often. It's very pretty on you, and not inappropriate at all, IMO.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995680 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 22:18:23 +0000 Lyn D. 995680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Length great.<br />Fit great.<br />YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995678 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 22:13:44 +0000 elpgal 995678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look very good; no reason to doubt yourself.

I don't remember. You look great in this dress, and it's very much on-trend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995583 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 20:13:26 +0000 biscuitsmom 995583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it! I think it is a great fit, pretty pattern on you. I wouldn't hesitate wearing it all, if I were you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995582 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 20:12:00 +0000 No Fear of Fashion 995582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is a very pretty dress and you have to be very proud to look like that. If somebody does look at you and/or comment, it has got to be very positive. If not, it is either a jealous person (lots of them about, usually women) or a frustrated person (enough of them too, usually men.. hahaha).<br />Go and wear this pretty thing more often and enjoy your perfect figure wrapped in flowers.<br />Greetje </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995580 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 20:11:16 +0000 AviaMariah 995580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It just looks like a nice summery dress to me. &nbsp;Not too body con for work in my opinion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995573 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 20:05:19 +0000 Anonymous 995573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice to see this one come out to play again! I remember when you bought this last year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-dreaded-dress#post-995570 Wed, 31 Jul 2013 20:04:23 +0000 Irene 995570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe some of you will remember this dress from a thread I opened last summer. It had mixed responses but was approved by some, including Angie. </p> <p>This is what I wore today to work. It's a casual office but I still felt a bit self-conscious about the bodycon style AND the pattern placement. Family and friends find the dress ok though, and since I almost never wear it (and we are going through a laundry-less phase), I forced myself to put it on today. </p> <p>It was ok. I got no nasty looks, no comments, no nothing. No one gave it a second thought, so I guess it was all in my head. </p>
