Thank you for being so enabling! I had to leave yesterday, but went back this morning and tried it on once more, and left the shop in a new outfit. I really like the raspberry colour - it's pink, yet not screaming "pink", if that makes sense. My colleges already complimented fit and colour.
kelly: white sneaks feels fresh with dresses - casual, comfy and sporty, yet not entering gear territory.
texstyle: i noticed that the dress wasn't ironed or steamed, and I think that had an impact on how I perceived it.
bonnie: I find viskose very suitable for warm weather
Maneera, Suz, Ivy, Eliza, CocoCat, Echo : Thanks for the thumbs up!
Angie: Your vote is the best enabler! Thank you for dropping by.
El Cee: I agree. A change of shoes makes great impact.
Banoffi. It feels great on - forgiving, pretty and still not too delicate.
Diane, rachy: I did
alaskagirl: Good question! The bra does not show. And if i went for a dressier look, I'd choose a bra that I would be comfortable with if it did peek a bit.
AJ: I love pockets in dresses!
Anna: Fresh and flattering is what I'm looking for.
unfrumped: not sure if this is a HEWI (highly elusive wardrobe item) for me, but it adds a fun colour to my wardrobe - which is one of my style goals these days, is a great piece for traveling (with or without kids), and sort of replaces the ordinary LBD.
