This is a beautiful dress, and I want it.

[Flaxbee]

Kthanx!

[KitchenWitch]

1. I hope you can walk better than she appears to be able to!

:hi:

[Flaxbee]

3. if she didn't insist on 4-5-6" heels, she'd walk just fine

:hi: I don't understand the painfully-high-heels trend. Just don't. The dress needs a delicate shoe, but not a ridiculous shoe!

[Shell Beau]

20. I so agree on the dress, but I think a ridiculous shoe

looks great. And by ridiculous, I mean the black pump she is wearing. I am one of those freaks who likes high heels. I don't do 6 inchers, but I do wear 4 inch heels daily. I am only 5'4", I like the extra height! What can I say?

That is a pretty color too. It wouldn't look as good on my skin tone though!! :)

[Flaxbee]

22. your poor feet!

Actually, though, I used to wear high heels every day, and got used to it. I'm 5'7", and my husband is 6'4", so I'll wear 3-4 inch heels every once in a while...

[zanne]

24. So glad I grew up in the late 60's and early 70's....

Sandals, construction boots, or barefoot. Absolutely NO high heels.

[Shell Beau]

25. I will definitely be paying for my shoe choices later on.

My feet will hate me.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. My dear Flaxbee!

It is beautiful, but waaaaaay too short for me!

It looks almost like tunic length...


:hi:

[Flaxbee]

4. yes, it would take a brave person and a breeze-free day!

:D

I'd probably like it a bit longer - an inch or two above the knee.

[Adsos Letter]

5. With a name like "flaxbee"I think you should have it...

...but you gotta' post a photo when you get it... :D

Edit: for spelling...but I plead innocent due to the , uh, impact that dress had on the, uh, spelling portion of my brain... :dunce:

Who is it wearing that delightful creation?

[Flaxbee]

8. I wish I knew who designed it!

And thank you for the compliment! :D

It could be one of her own designs...

I could pull that dress off, though just for comfort's sake, I'd probably have the hem a little lower, but not much. I got my mom's legs, for which I will always be thankful.

[alphafemale]

6. Well...I've maybe got the gams to carry that off....but not so errr gifted on the top side.

I think I'd need to fasten a couple a couple more buttons.

:hi:

[Flaxbee]

9. you and me both, alphafemale

though her topside is surgically enhanced; her tatas used to match her frame better. I think a low-cut dress or blouse on a woman of less voluptuousness still looks great, though. In fact, I think it can look - classier.

[marzipanni]

18. For a few years this peek-a-boob thing seems so popular

so why do people freak out about nursing babies?
:shrug:
I'm glad I'm not a cougar, even a wonder bra can't do much with elder cleavage!

[LynneSin]

30. Well you could be if you paid money to have your breasts done like she has

those aren't her natural assets

[kentauros]

7. I went to some saree stores today

Talk about beautiful dresses! :D

That one's nice, too ;)

[Flaxbee]

10. Oh, wow - talk about beautiful color combinations, textures,

patterns. Saris (or is it saree?) are usually gorgeous!

[kentauros]

14. I think both spelling is correct.

The store we went to spelled it "saree" but I have seen shop names like "Sari Palace" too.

I did comment to my friend driving us around how interesting it is that so many other cultures of the world have such vibrant clothing styles (Africa, India, Indonesia, Native peoples) and then you look at the US and wonder where the imagination went. Her comment was that it was the Puritans' fault and I tend to agree :P

[Kali]

11. maybe it's the camera angle

or more likely it's that I'm fat, but she looks like she needs to eat some fried chicken and gravy or something

[Flaxbee]

12. no, she needs to eat

there's a rather horrific photo of her from earlier this week showing her neck:





She's way, way, waaayyyyyy too thin. Poor thing. She's really gone through some body distortions - too thin, too large breast implants for her frame ...

[Shell Beau]

31. She admitted to having an eating disorder at one time.

:shrug:

[Demoiselle]

13. Agreed.

She looks, as my mother used to say, "Painfully Thin." God Bless Moms.

[LisaL]

16. Oh please. What camera angle can make someone look that thin?

She looks very thin. The woman had three kids, I believe, which sometimes makes a woman gain some weight. Obviously not her, though. Look at her skinny arms and legs. That skinny body makes her head look big.

[Adsos Letter]

23. who is she?

[LynneSin]

28. When you starve yourself like that, eating Celery would cause her to gain wait

She is hardly a glamour girl.

And I don't want any bullshit about "Oh I'm naturally that thin and I'm tired of we thin girls getting shit". Victoria Beckham was never that anorexic when she was a spice girl.

[Shell Beau]

33. I think she has said that is when her eating disorder began.

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

15. looks good on her

would look better tossed on the floor of my bedroom

[FloridaJudy]

17. It needs accessories.

Although it is stunning. Even in my much younger, much skinnier days I couldn't have pulled off wearing that dress, though: I think one needs to be built like Barbie.

[gratuitous]

19. You know the rules . . .

You have to best underpants in a two out of three falls contest or to a TV time limit. Referee, as usual, will be Mills Lane.

"I'll allow it."

[leftyclimber]

21. Wow.

I'd like to be able to wear that without looking like a pink tribble. (I'm working on it, but it'll be a while....)

Great dress. Its occupant is not too shabby, either.

[LibDemAlways]

26. Frankly, I don't care for the dress. But I would like to

exchange bodies!

[LynneSin]

29. No you wouldn't - you're saying you want a dangerous eating disorder

Love the body you have. Nuff said!

[LibDemAlways]

32. Oh, believe me, I wouldn't keep that body for long. But it would

be much easier to put a few pounds on that one than to remove the middle-age spread I've been trying unsuccessfully to shed for quite some time!!

[LynneSin]

27. It's a beautiful dress. To bad that it's being worn by Skeletor

And yes, I realize that some of you DUers out there can't help it but be naturally thin. But if you find any picture of Victoria Beckham back when she was Posh Spice of the Spice Girls you'll know that clearly that is not the case.



That's her on the left during the Spice Girl years when she actually looked healthy
