What dress did you end up wearingJoie

I need a new swimsuit because I trashed a couple in Costa Rica. Thoughts about the ones below?

4/5/2010 11:08:07 AM

First one

4/5/2010 11:08:39 AM

I have the middle one, it's preeeeeeeeeeeetty.

4/5/2010 11:09:21 AM

useless w/o pics

4/5/2010 11:10:11 AM

I like the size of the first one (smaller straps), but I think the second one would pop more against a tan.

4/5/2010 11:10:52 AM

Sometimes you just can't win

4/5/2010 11:11:15 AM

Perhaps I should buy both!

4/5/2010 11:14:41 AM

Or go to a nude beach

*wipes hands up and down*

Problem solved

Nude beaches in Florida are

Too many old people

4/5/2010 11:15:35 AM

Why did you go

4/5/2010 11:16:00 AM

Haulover Beach in the Miami area

I was tricked

I didn't say where

4/5/2010 11:18:07 AM

do want... but do not want to pay $485



also want (but would never be able to get due to dress logistics):






I think my Benefit blush will be getting here tomorrow....... yaaaaaaaay

4/5/2010 11:21:09 AM

that last dress is all Strawberry Shortcake style

4/5/2010 11:22:32 AM

I like where this is going.......

4/5/2010 11:22:56 AM

that's why I love it.. but the top is sheer which would mean a strapless bra is in order and I'm not a fan of strapless... but I might consider trying it out, we shall see

#3 on the bathing suits lucy - very cute!

4/5/2010 11:25:21 AM

i have been drooling over swimsuit #2. It's been out in previous seasons. I have yet to buy it. Super cute

4/5/2010 11:27:02 AM

Sam, that first dress is a Betsey Johnson! I LOOOVE Betsey dresses. They're so well-made.

Maybe you can find the same dress or a similar one on ebay.

I just got a $375 Betsey dress for $120 at the outlet, but I saw the same dress for the same price on ebay.

4/5/2010 11:31:56 AM

Yeah, I bought the VS #2 about 3 yrs ago and it does look amazing against a tan!

4/5/2010 12:05:43 PM

wearing a burgundy suit tomorrow for my pictures. i think they're doing like portraits at school in business attire. i think it would be cool to order some to send out w/ my announcements

anyway

usually i wear a black or cream cami under it, but tomorrow it is supposed to be 92 so i feel like i should wear something that i can have on w/o the jacket. so i'm thinking a creamy colored blouse? i just hate the 2 collar thing. feels like i'm choking. i already don't like being in a suit already it is uncomfortable and makes me feel butch.

SIGH

suggestions?

here is a pic of what mine kinda looks like. cept this is a shitty ebay pic and the suit is all wrinkly and the color looks faded. anyway. 3/4 sleeves and the skirt hits around the knee:

4/5/2010 8:54:23 PM

you need something to spice that up kadwackle

4/5/2010 9:03:11 PM

i know. i don't know. maybe i will try on two choices right now and take pics and let tww decide

but both of my suits are wrinkly so imagine them ironed lol

BRB

4/5/2010 9:15:15 PM

ok i am basically fucked. HELP TWW!

i don't want to wear the burgundy anymore i want to wear black BUT i can't find my full black suit. i can only find a skirt suit bottom that doesn't have a matching jacket. i HAVE a full black suit but i don't know wtf it is. i can't find my gray suit dress either. hmmmm i took them to hong kong so may i left them in raleigh crap

but i mean if they are MY pictures couldn't i just do a portrait in a blouse, skirt and heels? and then the class pic is of us in caps and gowns. so why do i even need a jacket. ahhh STRESS.



LOL photobooth. ignore the face. this is what i want to wear but this skirt doesn't have a matching jacket and the black suit i have that does have skirt + jacket is currently mia. FUCK.

Here's my idea: buy a new suit, take pics and return the suit.

Terrible idea, but it could work in a pinch.

4/5/2010 9:44:37 PM

^ fantastic idea.... you do nordstroms - they'll take almost anything back

4/5/2010 9:45:28 PM

haha i know. i know. if i could find my entire black suit it would help. and i could use a new suit. i should have gone today but now i'm screwed unless i wake up at the crack of dawn tomorrow to go buy one.

well the email just says "business attire"

i think i could do a portrait in the skirt suit and blouse and still look fine. i mean i was just going to order dress pics of me to send out w/ my announcements to like jane and john 4th cousins that i never see but want money from.

so does the black + ruffly cream blouse work? ironed of course?

[Edited on April 5, 2010 at 9:47 PM. Reason : .]

4/5/2010 9:46:39 PM

yea i'd rather the black skirt and blouse combo - not a fan of the red one.

4/5/2010 9:47:27 PM

do y'all think that is ugly?

4/5/2010 9:48:33 PM

Yes

4/5/2010 9:49:29 PM

^^^ well the red one used to be REALLY cute on

but my recent weight gain makes it a little tight in the hips

^^ ummm. yea i don't really like it. i dunno why. i think it is the cut?! the colors are pretty though

[Edited on April 5, 2010 at 9:50 PM. Reason : .]

4/5/2010 9:50:22 PM

for some reason - the length of the sleeve makes it look like it doesn't fit you.

maybe it's just me

4/5/2010 9:51:05 PM

Yeah...I wasn't sure if it was just me...but I will not be getting that suit.

4/5/2010 9:51:39 PM

^^ yea it is 3/4 sleeves. kinda odd i guess for a suit. i don't knowwww why i got it. i've worn it like twice (2 years ago) and now that i tried it on again i was NOT in love with it anymore haha.

blahh. i'm just gonna do the black. plus black is slimming haha.

is the cream blouse hideous?

I like it but then again I think I have that shirt so perhaps im biased. Also, you could buy a suit for photos and return it.



Also, Im not a big fan of that suit either. Don't really like the color combo or the cut. Also, i can't imagine it being really flattering on

[Edited on April 5, 2010 at 9:54 PM. Reason : as]

4/5/2010 9:54:35 PM

^^ i like it

steam it and what not

4/5/2010 9:54:52 PM

yes yes need to steam right now haha

i should have gotten a suit today but i really don't have time tomorrow sadness. oh well. i should have planned this sooner because my other suit must be in raleigh

oh wellzzz.

4/5/2010 9:56:46 PM

Will this pattern make me look bigger?

I wish they had a sizing chart for this, I wanna know if the cups will be big enough for my boobs

4/5/2010 9:58:46 PM

^ that bathing suit is super cute!!!

4/5/2010 9:59:11 PM

that is cute and will not make you look bigger. I have one that is very similar and it looks great on (all things considered anyway)

4/5/2010 10:04:53 PM

that print is doing weird things with my eyes - but maybe it's just me

4/5/2010 10:06:53 PM

okay...

but now I'm frustrated because I cannot find a fit guide on american eagle...I mean I know what size pants and shorts I wear there, but I just wanna see the size of the swim suits so I can not have to deal with returns through the mail...it sucks not having an american eagle near here.

4/5/2010 10:06:54 PM

I love the dotted suit! Sooo cute!

4/5/2010 10:09:14 PM

I'm gonna get it! I really hope it will fit my boobs!

4/5/2010 10:09:49 PM

wow i haven't shopped at AE in YEARS but am browsing the site after i realized that dotted suit was from AE

they do have some cute swim stuff:




and ofcourse the 1 piece already posted!!

AND they have some super cute sundresses. man i may have to 11th grade it up and hit up the closest AE

4/5/2010 10:12:05 PM

hahaha....those pics up there just made me chuckle, katwackle. You are so amazingly cute.

4/5/2010 10:15:01 PM

haha

i fail at wearing suits

they make me feel like a lez. and they are so uncomfortable. i'd much rather just wear like a wrap dress everyday.

4/5/2010 10:17:13 PM

Yeah I totally love shopping at AE...mostly because they have AMAZING jeans, and they aren't crazy expensive.

What does bramuda shorts look like on a girl with meaty thighs, better or worse than shorts??
