I'm thinking it might be cute. Has anyone seen it or tried it?

No, but I noticed it the other day and thought the same thing. I actually thought of Dusty when I saw it- wasn't she searching for a denim sundress a while back?

I'm not sure! I edited the title so hopefully she'll see the thread.

I might give it a try...looks like it would work with a layer over and under.

There are so many Gap coupons every week, you can probably get it for at least 25 % off and it might be pretty versatile. It would look great with your coloring. I can see it with a bright cardigan on top.

I saw it on a girl a couple days ago. Without some sort of layer or modern shoe, it looks a little cutesy and stereotypical farmgirl/country. I think it's the pintucking and light denim combo. Definitely no pigtails or someone will ask you to help milk their cow.

Ack... I think I just tore up the one they had sent me in the mail! I'll find another coupon, I'm sure. I was picturing the same thing, agrace. DressLover, I agree - it has to be styled a certain way!

I get coupons in email - are you signed up for their emails? I get one at least once a week. Also, go to http://www.retailmenot.com and search 'Gap Coupons' and you'll probably find one that way too.

I haven't tried that one. It's cute! I'll have to go look. (and, yes, I was looking for a chambray dress - great memory Khris!) I do agree that it'd be very easy for this to end up looking very country or little girl, but done right, it could be fab!

Don't forget to pop into the store too. They often have unadvertised sales. This past Memorial weekend all skirts & dresses were 40% off in store only - no coupon required.

I forgot that I recently got this one at Ann Taylor Loft - at 40% off. It's also chambray. I plan to wear it with either a white T underneath or a red cardigan over. http://www.anntaylorloft.com/c.....pe=Regular

Very Stella McCartney. I vote yay.

Very 70s. Wear with a big wedge sandal, or an espadrille.

I don't know about the pintucked dress but I have this version.

It fits my pear shaped body fine, although I haven't figured out how to style it yet to wear it.

OK, I think I might give it a try! Laura, I think you are right about wedges. Angie, I like Stella McCartney a lot, so I'm pleased with that assessment!

Lisa, have you looked at Angie's blog posts with her denim dress? I really like the one you got but they don't have my size anymore online.
http://youlookfab.com/2010/05/.....or-spring/ Yours is slightly different but maybe there is some inspiration there.

Melibrac, I like that Loft dress a lot. I always have to wear a cami or something under them, though, for coverage, so I like both your styling ideas.

Rosie, I like Stella's stuff too. Could be cute with that whole 70's vibe Laura is spot on about.

I looked for this dress in the stores today and they it was nowhere to be found. You may have to do an online order. I've got a 25% off online code, only good for today, if you want it. (eta: My bad, the code is good for 3 days.)

Oh, thank you Traci! I got that code in email today, I think. I will have to decide over the weekend whether to order this or not.

I like it more every time I look at it. I have a feeling it wouldn't be flattering on my apple, but on your hourglass, I think it would be adorable. Along with the other styling ideas above, I think it would be cute in the fall with a slim fitting turtleneck sweater underneath and knee high boots.

Thanks for the link Rosie. I'll see if I come up with any ideas I can post pictures of. I hope you try the dress out, it looks really nice.
