MrsToad Posted August 7, 2012 #1227 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Thank you so much. I have been wanting this dress but could not bring myself to spend that kind of money on just 1 dress, when I could buy several at Ross for that price. With the 50% off and with the sale price....I just ordered this dress You're very welcome. :) I can't get your picture to show up or your link to work. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parrisk Posted August 7, 2012 #1228 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Ladies, I have been lurking on this thread for a really long time. I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at all the gorgeous gowns and dresses. As soon as I figure out how to post photos I will post some pictures from my last two cruises, then hopefully get some opinions on which dresses I should take on my next cruise. I love dressing up, especially for elegant night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arhillbilly Posted August 8, 2012 #1229 Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) You're very welcome. :) I can't get your picture to show up or your link to work. :( I guess the reason is that the dress is no longer available. As soon as I receive it (mine shipped yesterday...should get it Aug 13) I will take a picture of it... DREWS WIFE: Do you remember the green dress that you put on here and said would be great for me? That's the one I am getting!!!! Edited August 8, 2012 by arhillbilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJOZ Posted August 10, 2012 #1230 Share Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) I know they say...whoever "they" might be....say that stripes goingacross are not supposed to be flattering but I found a very cute dress today at Bealls and the stripes are sort of "textured".........and I am happy with my purchase:) Oh, the dress is much prettier in person too. If you want to see more details here is the link: http://www.beallsflorida.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product__10151_-1_12003_1033813 I think "they" are wrong, in my experience horizontal stripes are actually very flattering! It seems weird but it's true. I really like this dress and I'm sure it will look great. Edited August 10, 2012 by PJOZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew's Wife Posted August 13, 2012 #1247 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Hi Ladies, Hope everyone is doing well...I haven't been on much lately...just lots going on....however I did decide on a couple of new dresses....Yes and one of them is "GREEN":rolleyes::D. I ordered two dresses just alike, one in the green and one in black. I love the dress and hope it fits as well as all the others I've ordered. I did ask he she would make it a couple inches longer....that may have been a mistake, but I love when a fuller dress is right below my knee. If it's too long, I'll just have my favorite seamstress hem it. She also said that she could make the dress in a long version for me for Valentines...so if I like them then I will have her make the same dress in red for Valentines only in a floor length. She gave me a great deal on two dresses and an even better deal on three...plus a discount on the shipping...so I can't go wrong since I know how well the dresses always seem to work. Hopefully this will post a picture, I had to get a new laptop on Sunday, and I haven't tried to do anything with this one yet.... for .Wish me luck.....and everyone have a wonderful day.Now I'm off to work, have a lot to do as Drew and I are going away tomorrow for a few days...can't hardly wait to get away where it's quiet and peaceful and just the two of us!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porthopper101 Posted August 13, 2012 #1250 Share Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) Hi all, Ive been looking at all your gorgeous dresses and thought I would post a pic of one that I have just bought. I am going on the Queen Mary 2 from Adelaide in Australia to Southampton next year, 34 nights. I am NOT a dress up girl, its not that I dont like it, but have very little confidence in my body and myself. So I think all this dressing up is going to do my head in! Hi Strawberryflds, I will be on the Queen Mary 2 too. Matter of fact I will be on her for 120 days. Looking forward to meet you. Your dress is beautiful!
