i have another high waist pencil skirt coming and i will probably choose between corset and the new one. i don't need 2.

i tried on the blouson dress in XS and S and took photos, both of it pulled down and after i reach above my head. it's a bit dangerous in both sizes - i don't think sizing up actually gives any more length. but you guys be the judge - which one seems to work better?
i honestly can not tell a difference in them.

Whee i love that top but can't justify having so many of them. wish i had used a reward on them so i could be "stuck" with them! laugh out loud
I love the top too. I bought all the colors and will most likely keep them all for $10 Facepalm. I'm a lace addict!

I have bought the same exact skirt in both grey and black too, waiting for the shipment still.

Also, I forgot to quote it but you rock that dress. I think houndstooth dress looks better on K, you and alvs than on me. It is short on me too - pic with that dress and sweater leggings. half of my winter was spent wearing it I guess , also I like how you all call it liggy's dress laugh out loud

Which jacket is named after porda? Teehee I need to see it on site!
liggy you look great! it looks just as short on you as it does on me! (probably because we're about the same height hehe).

porda's jacket was the shawl collar one button jacket.

i prob should have gotten the black as well. oh well.

oooh... it is super short on yall. it's like a top on you and anni. i may have taken a pic of me in the sweaterdress as well. i'll look for it on my phone and may post it too. (nvm, i don't have one after all)

for jackets, express have many, some of them are not formal as suit jackets are.

i have this one [express.com] in black, but it's a bit wide in the arms, but i still like it. ack, and they used to have it only in black and white, and i'm interested in the other 2 colors they have available now! i don't have a nice khaki one yet, but i think i should just wait until there's another style.
that's cute k! i want! EEK! is it silly to want it in grey considering i have the porda jacket? laugh out loud maybe i need a black one.

which one do you think is the XS? Coverlaugh I know my hand placement on the 2nd photo throws it off. they look like the same length tho right?

i did the 'reach above your head' test for these dresses and for the raglan sleeve dress. unfortunately that caused all of the dresses to be too short. i decided i'm returning the raglan sleeve dress even tho i don't reach above my head often, bc it's $25. but for $10 i'll keep one blouson dress... i decided on blue but am still deciding on size.

I say the first photo is xs. I think they look the same in length.

i know you're thinking because they're both gray. i thought about that too. the detailing on the corset makes it nicer with tops tucked in. the other, i have the matching jacket. so i think i'm allowed to keep both for $15 each.

true - but i'm not a huge fan of the corset detailing. Tomato the black hides that a little.. i'm considering ordering the black, but i already have a black high waist skirt from BR that i like.

i also feel like the corset draws attention to my tummy and the skirt does not hide my tummy.

I may pull trigger with express if there is FS. I keep finding things I want to order. I havent checket site today yet.

Quote from kurips :
i feel like buying something! but i don't know what!
I am in the same boat Doh Now what to buy laugh out loud


Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
the dress looks cute on you!

express, ann taylor, and limited may be some places to look for inexpensive suit jackets.

Yes, dress is short on me. I can't imagine wearing it without leggings.

I will keep checking sites hug

I think the one in left is XS? either way that one looks better on you- the first pic that is.

Thanks hug the pic was taken after the 6 hour flight- with leggings it made super comfy dress for traveling. But when we were at airport the temp was 78 and we literally had 24 the night before in NY so I was in mood of ripping my cloths off and running around in beeeekeeeni laugh out loud

It depends on the weather on me wearing tights with it. It looks great with your bare legs.
