View Full Version : Homecoming Dress - I Give Up!
Elizabeth 06-20-2007, 01:47 PM So I have been shopping in all of Tampa's 5 malls and I quit. There is nothing out there that fits me and I like.
So I have this dress...

but in a turquoise color (no hot pink for me!) It's silk and from VS. Do you think with jewelry and heels it would be ok?? His homecoming isn't that exciting, I just walk into the hanger at the command and there they are... but I want to look nice for him!
I'm so sick of shopping and I never thought I would say that! There is just nothing out there. If It wasn't summer and 100 degrees I would go in a coat and heels I swear! :lol
So whadya think?
Armylove 06-20-2007, 01:48 PM I think thats cute. And I like it.
I think it's a really cute dress! Any pics of you in it?
harrisonsdream 06-20-2007, 01:48 PM i think it'd look super good on you!
Pebbles 06-20-2007, 01:48 PM That is really cute.
I'd wear flip flops with it.
CoffeeGirl 06-20-2007, 01:49 PM I like it Elizabeth:mrgreen
Jennie 06-20-2007, 01:50 PM I think it's pretty!
If you wear jewelry, I would keep it extremely simple. A bracelet or a necklace. As far as shoes go, I'd have to see.

No... I thought about it but didn't yet.

Yeah I wasn't sure if I should just go simple with a pair of brown heeled sandals... cause I have some earrings with wood and turquoise. Or If I should od metallic or colored??

If you already have brown stuff, I would just stick with that. (I'm not a fan of metallics, but that's just me). You could always just try it all on together and see what looks best.

I took a quick pic and it's super blurry, no clue why but you get the idea...
Jennie 06-20-2007, 02:03 PM I think you look cute! It's not super dressy, but not super casual.
You look extremely happy by the way.. :D
Patjim 06-20-2007, 02:08 PM love the dress.

Is that sarcastic?! :lol I don't make the best of faces in pictures unless I'm prepared for pictures that day! I look all scrubby cause I'm about to go jump in the pool actually, but I really want opinions on the dress so I sucked it up! :P

That most certainly was! You just look like "take the damn pic already!" Have fun in the pool!!
sdshorty 06-20-2007, 02:26 PM Ooo I like it, I actually would like that dress for me :D, LOL. Where is it from again Vicki's?

Very cute :), are those the shoes you wearin? I think maybe a lighter color shoe would be more summery and would go with the dress better :)
NavyChiefs_Wife 06-20-2007, 02:30 PM i love it.
alwaysfaithful37 06-20-2007, 02:41 PM Cute! I would wear wedges with it and have my hair in loose curls.
Loretta 06-20-2007, 02:43 PM Yeah I wasn't sure if I should just go simple with a pair of brown heeled sandals... cause I have some earrings with wood and turquoise.
LOVE this idea :clap
Elizabeth 06-20-2007, 02:47 PM Yup Renee, Victoria's Secret, and it's on sale right now, woo hoo! I like the style, it has some flair without being crazy.
chelsea<3josh 06-20-2007, 03:50 PM i think its really cute! i think silver jewlery would go well with it and i might do a bit of a lighter shoe since it's summer but the dress is cute and you look great in it! :thumbsup
You are so gorgeous! Love the dress!
Kelsey 06-20-2007, 03:57 PM That is adorable! I might wear a simple necklace with it, but I always like to put a necklace with anything that has a low or plunging neckline.
footstepswife 06-20-2007, 04:07 PM I love that dress very nice. I like the brown I need, dressy but not over the top.
SezzySue 06-20-2007, 04:09 PM I love that, very pretty
I am not great at shopping when Tim is returning, I just hate it
googlegirl 06-20-2007, 04:18 PM Yeah I wasn't sure if I should just go simple with a pair of brown heeled sandals... cause I have some earrings with wood and turquoise. ??
:yes
Very flattering - very cute dress- you look great in it! Like this idea! (wood, brown) but any kind of medium heel like you have on in pic works fine-- he probably won't notice-- & how long will you have it on anyway? :hehe
Heather 06-20-2007, 05:26 PM I really like that on you. I think its a good choice.
valerie 06-20-2007, 06:36 PM i love that dress. i think i might buy it!!!
Elizabeth 06-20-2007, 06:59 PM Thanks all for your input... i think I'm going to go with this dress and just use whatever accessories I have. I will be leaving the States in a couple weeks and I'm tired of searching! I know Christopher will not even notice what I'm wearing anyways, I just want to look presentable.
