2. I do too, but it might be too cleavage-exposed.
Not that I actually have any idea where I would wear it, but I think it's CUTE!

6. He's doing okay.
I think I'm going to have to bring him to the Dr's; he looks like he has a sinus infection. His nose is Nas-tay!

How are you and Sniffs?! Done with finals, yet?

14. Oh noes! Give him snuggles for me...
Eh, holding up. No, finals aren't until next week. I have a HUGH paper due on Friday (please don't ask me how far into that I am, I'm sooo screwn).

Another paper and a final on the 21st, last final on the 23rd, already started my summer internship. Me? Stressed? NEVAH! :rofl:

Oh, and I joined the gym and we're buying bicycles. I'm gonna be not fat by September! w00t! :bounce:

5. I like the first one...
Second one: I can't take anybody seriously when they're wearing a babydoll dress.

Third one: I think I just saw that dress in a NutriSystem commercial.

Just not like she wears it. Membership in Congress should include a weekly date with a style consultant.

13. Decisions, decisions
The second one is the most versatile. The third one is hawt and you would get a lot of attention. The first one, even in a different color, no.

Of course, you would look beautiful in all of them; but I say the second.

19. i like 2 qnd 3, even if 1 were black i still wouldn't like it. Although if 1 were just a top
and you got rid of the bottom i think it would be cute.

27. I think 1 is the kind of dress that doesn't look right unless
it's on a body.

It's definitely of the 80's vein of fashion.

But I may NEED to have it, anyway.

24. I like the third one
The first looks a little too much like a maternity outfit, plus that tight skirt looks uncomfortably restricting. The second doesn't do a thing for me - too dumpy, and oddly the stripes make it look even wider.

The third dress is hawt! You could do a lot with it depending on the accessories, and the color is flattering to almost all complexions.

But then, what do I know: I live in broomstick skirts and Birkenstocks.

28. #1 is bold and different, #3 has a nice cut and color.
#2 looks like someone cut down a muu muu and made a babydoll dress. It may look better on, but that's my impression from the photo.

30. I'm neither chic nor female...
But the top one is nice. Pleasant and earthy. Number 2 is scary, and number 3 is a personal choice.

32. #1
Sexy, kinda stylish and reveals nothing while promising everything. Second choice is #3, but it's only for certain occasions and when you want to show a lot of cleavage. #2 - as my sister would have said "It's hiddy!" so forget that one.

Khash.

34. I like the red one; any of them would make me look like more of a
bubble butt than I already am, so I wouldn't wear them *lol* but I think they're cute!

of the waistbands being up under the boobs. But it's everywhere now.

36. #1
The colour scheme is appealing to me. #3, too rich, too bold, I guess.

40. #1 won't last you longer than one season....
#2 is cute and it hides a variety of "flaws" plus the colors give you more shoe options.

#3 is cute but only if you're not bottom heavy...plus it won't last longer than maybe 2 summers and it's more dressy so it won't work well during the day/early evening.


If I had it my way, I would use the halter on #3 and use the bottom shape from #2. I would also have #1 as just a top without the fitted skirt part and pair it with jeans.

She has 2 degrees in fashion design, has interned with Charles Nolan,
Betsey Johnson, Dior, Blanc de Chine and Bergdorf-Goodman. I'd trust
her judgment over mine any day!

You've got the figure for all of them, though, so go with what suits you best!
