Speaking of e-pics...

Im wearing this dress for one outfit... I was thinking red heels with it.. would that be good?

What about accessories. I''m fashion challenged.

Elle, I actually tried that dress on and loved it! Red heels would be awesome! I suck at other accessories though, so I got nothing.

Dude... did you notice how big their dresses ran? I had to get a small!

In WHAT world does a 5''10'' 159 lb chick wear a small?

Where did you buy the dress from again?

 

[Lauren8211]

Oh yeah, and that dress was pretty sweet because when I wear it with a push up bra my ta-tas look ginormous.

Okay, I love the dress, but will it photograph well? Sometimes small patterns don''t read well on film. Maybe try getting MonkeyPie or strm''s opinion? I love it, and I would totally do red heels plus maybe a fun silver cuff and some silver hoops?

Hmm.. I didn''t think of that.

You think I should get a solid color dress?

REALLY? Whyyyyyy did they start making cute stuff after I stopped working there? I might have to go in and get the rose print version of this. I freaking love it, and that''s actually a pretty decent price. I need new work clothes, and I get paid on Wedsnesday....hmmmm.........

Haaaaaay.

Well I''d totally steal that idea from you, but should I do 2 black things? I was hoping to do a color. And the colored versions of that dress were not flattering. Not.

 

[princesss]

I really prefer the polka dots, I would just double check with our photographers before I pulled the trigger. No use paying all this money if it doesn''t read well.

LOL... It''s a crap shoot in there. A lot of stuff is too trendy, but looks exactly the same... KWIM? I guess trendy but unoriginal. Anyway... I got it about a month ago, and there were tons of patterns.

How was the discount??

 

[sunnyd]

Oooh P the rose print is cute! They didn''t have that at the stores I went to.

 

[Dreamgirl]

I love that dress elle!!!

Red shoes are a must with it.

The polka dots were me trying to get away from "just black"

I'm notorious for wearing tons and tons of black.

My jeans/top combo will have to be a NOT black top... even though I'm scared.

I think you should try for some color. When the pics come back, I'll bet you'll be happy it wasn't all black.

Holy shiz...we''re on page 3 and it''s not even July yet! hahaha

I''m currently reporting from Mount Vernon, Ohio. Fi is doing work stuff and I''m writing reports and watching TV in the hotel. We drove down in torrential downpour last night...and my poor 27 year-old body couldn''t take sitting in a car for 6 hours straight. Oyy

i scanned thru the small talk, so here are some tidbit responses:

elle - cute dress!

sunnyd - deep breath...your e-pics will be fab and just go with a trim if you''re not sure how to cut your hair

elation - your man sounds like mine! Athletic-geeky-chic? If you go with a wallet, my FI tends to lean towards Fossil wallets. Sometimes he gets a kick out of looking at wallets at Holts (I live just outside of TO). Is there a concert he might want to go to this summer? We had to tickets to see Broken Social Scene but it was cancelled

. Concert List

Good call... I will look into it... AFTER LUNCH!

Back in a bit!

 

[princesss]

PS, elle, I''m fairly certain we could be body doubles. 5'' 10" (I''m about 3 pounds heavier), curvy...so I''m definitely going to get this dress if you say it fits well!

LOL, well it would be a good attempt.

I know. Maybe I''ll go to Nordstrom and have them dress me. Jeez, it''s like a makeover day.

I love doing that. As a former sales girl, I loved playing around and dressing people. And the best thing I''ve done for my hair was go into the salon with the beginnings of an idea, and let my stylist go nuts. Speaking of my stylist, I need to call him....

You trust a hair stylist that much?!

I guess from time to time I''ve told mine to do what she wants with it but we usually disguss it first and then come up with a style. But lately I''ve done the same style. Still thinking about cutting shorter bangs. I woke up yeterday morning thinking "OMG what if it looks horrible? Then it will take a year to grow out"

But it''s something I want to do. Who knows just how short we will go with the bangs tomorrow...

It did fit really well. I''m VERY hippy/booty and not so much in the chest. Long legs.

If that sounds like you.. it should look pretty awesome!

 

[Dreamgirl]

Must be nice to have long legs. I''m a shorty...

It has it''s benefits... but... you look slutty in anything remotely short, and pants are never long enough.

 

[sunnyd]

Shorties can have long legs. I''m not one of ''em, but it''s all about proportion!

What''d you have for lunch, elle? Anything good?

Technically I''m still at lunch. I go home for lunch.

I ate some low fat chicken salad... sans bread. It was tasty!

I''m kind of Booby McBooberson, very hippy, and looooong. So I think I''ll have to try the dress on.

 

[sunnyd]

Mmmm... I have some of that at home, I need to mix it up! I love chicken salad.

Me too!
All my lawyers are on vacation, except for the one who never gives me work to do...
I''m grateful for your company!!

 

[Dreamgirl]

So BigT, you work for a law firm? What do you do there? (you don''t have to answer that if you don''t want to)

Actually I''m a law student, just working for the summer. I do a lot of research for people who are too busy to it themselves, and sometimes I get to go to court!
