My first dress *blush*

[Eoraptor]

Hi everyone! You might remember back in December I wore one of Nikki's gowns to the fancy Christmas party. It was my first time in public in a dress and I had a blast. Around that same time, Nikki gave me one of her dresses to keep (it no longer fits her). I've been sorta embarrassed to show everyone, partly because I couldn't get a good photo of it and partially because it's.... mine I guess? I dunno. It's like the gown was a costume I just had for one night, so it's less serious. Anyway, I finally got an okay pic Saturday during my latest FOTD. The dress still looks darker in the mirror and I have a black undershirt on underneath it, making it look less revealing up top. I took another pic of the dress hanging up so you could see the real color and strap width. What do you girls think? I didn't choose this dress, so it's not my ideal, but I did get it free.

Are dresses okay to wear on a normal day? This one seems like it's best for somewhat special occassions I think. What style/color do you recommend for my next dress? So many questions...

I think it really suits you! It's a very pretty dress that fits you perfectly. I agree that with it being partly velvet, it's more of an evening dress. That shape does work for you though.

i love it! i think the color is fabbb !

I like the color and I think the shape is flattering. Looove your earrings

I think it would even be cuter with a wide belt right at the waist seam.
It will create a tiny waist look and a feminine curve.

I love the colour on you. Like I told you on MSN, you remind me of when I was going through girlhood

You seem to be enjoying it, though hahaha

I love that emerald colour on you Mickey. The dress fits really well too. I think for something that you got for free, you got a good deal.

i think it looks great on you! as far as i can tell, it fits you really well & it really flatters your shape. but i agree to save it for special occassions.

I definitely agree on wearing it with a waist belt. it looks really cute on you. I think if you want to wear dresses, summer is a really great time to experiment because you could wear them any day. if you want to wear a dress and its cold, wear leggings and the dress would look hot. k bye.

How long is it on you? If its around your knees, its fine really for any occasion. For day time, I'd wear it with a jean jacket or something to make it slightly more casual.. for a night out or formal event, it would go fine by itself with heels or something. It's a v. cute dress I think; color and fit are perfect for you!

Thank you everyone! You girls make me feel so much better about myself. I'm still a little embarrassed, but I'm glad I showed you.

I will definitely look into wide belts. I've seen a lot on fashion websites lately.

It's about 5 inches below my knees. Even if it's too long, I'd love to find some day dresses. I don't know when I'd be brave enough to wear them, but I think I'd be happier. I dunno. I did buy a black tunic the other week, and that's almost like a minidress...

Also, sorry I haven't made a post on my breasts yet. Besides being super busy, I'm still shy about it. But I will post on it soon. I've gotten a lot of support from you, which I'm very thankful for.

I love how you radiant in that photo.

HAS ANYONE EVER TOLD U THAT U LOOK A LOT LIKE CHLOE FROM 24????

 

[TheRitz]

the dress is kute, but to be honest, the high waist doesnt flatter the body. i would suggest something tight and right below knee length. preferrably black. black is slimming. and top it off with a hot red thick belt, high waisted to give the illusion of long skinny legs and fuller breasts. lol im such a fashion diva sometimes. i love it . hope it helps!

 

[Ms. Z]

Yeah, you do look like Chloe.

 

[Eoraptor]

Thanks for the advice, TheRitz!

I have been told I look like Chloe, but I haven't noticed until now. Good call.
