^It's really cute. I think it would be really versatile since you'll be wearing it for tennis and it would also look great with jeans and some long necklaces so it doesn't look too plain.

What do you think?

I have a little problem...the thing is I don't know if i should wear this dress for my boat cruise...cuz my friend has a dress really similar to it in style (v-neck , short in front and long at the back) but of course the colour is way different...and i'm scared that if i do choose to wear it..she'll think i'm copying her, but on the other hand, i really do quite like this dress...more than the one I originally planned to wear for boat cruise..so what should i do? lol =P

^That's a really pretty dress! If you really like that one, a lot more than the original one you were gonna wear, then just wear that one! And don't worry about your friend thinking that you're copying her. As they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Wear what YOU want. It doesn't matter what others think. And plus, she IS your friend. It's probably not that big of a deal.

cappucino_cream: I think the dress is cute! And don't worry about the whole copycat thing...people always have similar dresses at prom/formals and whatnot, it really is inevitable. As lil_pinkbunnie said, imitation is the best form of flattery!

i recently bought this hollister dress:

i really like the dress, but it's strapless and i think it's too revealing to just wear alone. i tried pairing with a cardigan, but it looked really odd. then i tried wearing it with my black sweater (as shown).... does it look strange? it's pretty thick and has a hood too =/. and if it does look okay, is it too dressy for school?

EDIT: sorry for the huge pics Mad

^It looks good with the black sweater! And no i don't think it's too dressy for school. Just make sure to wear flat shoes or maybe flip flops even.
If you're scared of the dress looking too revealing, you could also try layering a white beater underneath the dress or even a plain white fitted tee (preferably v-neck).
And btw, the dress is really cute = )

xlovely44x: The dress is super cute! I think it also looks fine with the sweater you posted, and I think a cardigan would look nice with it too (is it a fitted cardigan?) If you want to keep it casual, flat shoes are best, either flats or flip flops like lil_pinkbunnie said.

^^^with dresses like those, i love to layer either vneck or scoopneck longsleeve plain tees underneath, very cute dress btw

xlovely44x - I don't think the dress looks great with the sweater. I would try to find something else to wear it with. But I don't think it's too dressy for school.

xlovely44x: I love that dress, its adorable! I think the sweater looks ok with it, but a shorter one might look better. Oh and I think its fine for school, I wear dresses to school all the time.

@xlovely44x: Like the others said, maybe try a t-shirt or tank underneath. I don't love that sweater with it, I think it's a little heavy for a summer dress. Have you tried a cropped cardigan or jacket? I also think a belt would look really great with that dress, it'd be a great way to add some detail. It's a pretty dress, I'm sure you'll get a lot of use out of it!

thanks for the opinions guys! i guess i'll look around for a lighter cardigan then Happy

cappuccino_cream · Posted: Tue May 13, 2008 2:14 pm Post subject:

thanks for your opinions and suggestions guys! but i actually didn't end up buying that dress cuz i only had time to try it on the day before my boat cruise and i didn't have a proper bra to wear with it...the back is low and it would have shown my bra...and i didn't have time to get shoes to match it as well....plus my mom was like too much money spent on the boat cruise if i get the dress, a new bra and new shoes...it would have cost more dan my winter formal dress lol! so yeah... i wore my original dress...a little sad but it's okay =)

What do you think of this tiered dress. It's orange btw (cause the pic doesn't really justify it).

^i think tiered items are really either a hit or miss, it really depends on the person. it looks really good on the model. you should try it out and if it works, get it!

^^ Agree with pinkyswear. Either look good or they dont.
Ive always seemed to think they look better on flatter chested people, only because it doesnt take away from the tiers of the dress, if you know what i mean ahha.

Lil_pinkbunnie--The dress is okay, but I usually like tiered dresses in white. If it looks good on you get though!

Thanks for your opinions guys! Do you think the dress would look better in grey? or should i just stick with orange?

This dress is very pretty and perfect for the sunny days. It reminds me the look of a flapper with an actual twist ^^ !

I like it in orange, but I think I would buy it in grey. It would fit more with my wardrobe and it would be less flashy. It depends of what you are looking for. Do you want a more versatile dress or one that is very trendy for the summer ?

_TNA_ · Posted: Sat May 17, 2008 3:03 pm Post subject:

Lil_pinkBunnie--Go for the dress in grey, I think it would look better!

lil_pinkbunnie - I totally agree go with the grey, I will look so nice and you will probably be able to wear it with more things than the orange!

emcee · Posted: Sat May 17, 2008 7:45 pm Post subject:

Definitely agree with most people on the grey. Much more versatile and muted enough for a really simple, understated look, I think orange is harder to work with and can't really be toned down (if you get what I mean) - you could dress up grey with accessories, but orange will always be orange and bright!

Lil_PinkBunnie · Posted: Sun May 18, 2008 8:45 am Post subject:

Thanks so much everyone! I'm gonna go and try it on first and if it looks good, I think i'll get in grey. The thing is though, I actually already have a lot of grey clothes and a grey dress already, that's why I'm unsure. The orange DOES really look good in person. But like you guys said, it's very bright and cannot really be toned down.

If you have a lot of grey clothes, maybe you should get the dress in orange. Versace used orange for his summer collection and I find it really refreshing.

_TNA_: I really like that hollister dress. I typically don't really like hillister, but that is really cute.
