Currently painting my toesies with nail polish that changes from white irridescent to bright pink in the sun! It looked and worked great in the bottle, hope it does the same on my nails!

5/20/2011 2:58:12 PM

Ok the broken link was way better than the Vera Bradley

punchmonkie I thought about you when choosing that one!!!!

5/20/2011 3:06:28 PM

Del sol nail polish is awesome!

5/20/2011 3:20:41 PM

Before I leave work to head home, I just want to say that Target.com has some super cute flat sandals right now.

That is all

5/20/2011 6:16:51 PM

I seriously want both of these dresses:

5/20/2011 7:50:56 PM

^Gorgeous.

5/20/2011 8:51:55 PM

I bought DIS lovely dress from Target today, only $25, comes in a couple of other colors. I am in lurrrrve with coral, always have been, so I also got a ruffle-y coral tank. yay summer clothes!

What kind of shoes do you guys wear with your maxi dresses? I have some wedges that I've paired with mine but I still feel like I look schlubby, like I'm wearing a night gown or something. I don't know how short girls pull them off at all.

5/21/2011 4:13:39 PM

^i have a similar question

i have this dress




its very gold and i think im gonna wear it to a wedding next weekend.
what shoes should i wear?

i have a pair of very strappy, somewhat understated gold heels with a little embelessment on the front (rhinestones)

do you think that would be good?

too much gold?

[Edited on May 21, 2011 at 4:29 PM. Reason : ?]

5/21/2011 4:29:37 PM

that's a tough decision. let's think about other options:

silver - no way
black - ew
brown - no
clear - hooker

if you had red shoes, I'd say that's a maybe. but it looks like your best bet is gold.

5/21/2011 5:27:01 PM

Teal or something I think would look cute with it. But also for a wedding I think the gold-gold combo is fine. It might be too much elsewhere but for some reason it seems like at a wedding it would be OK to be more matchy-matchy.

5/21/2011 5:35:00 PM

I do like the shoes marketed with the dress:

omg I want this dress too! Don't have the monies now though

I would think with that gold dress a dusty or pale blue color would look great. Like this:



Or if you wanted to do something a little more summery, a pale pink or even a hot pink could look really cute.

5/21/2011 5:56:32 PM

ill post pics of what i got later

i do have gold glitter pumps that i am entertaining the thought of....ill show you later

i feel the same way and i dont know why.

[Edited on May 21, 2011 at 6:27 PM. Reason : ^OOOOHHHHH YES!]

[Edited on May 21, 2011 at 6:29 PM. Reason : unfortunately i dont have any colors like that and im too poor to buy new shoes ]

5/21/2011 6:25:16 PM

These could look really cute with that dress:







They're all pretty cheap at DSW.

I remember seeing some pale blue sandals at Target the other day that were only $10 too

5/21/2011 6:48:39 PM

I would keep it flat with a maxi dress.

They are pretty "hippy" like (if that makes sense) and so throwing on some pumps would just be odd. Now some cute espadrilles or wedges are always encouraged

Just stay casual with the shoe.


Joie...rock the gold strappy sandals!!!

5/21/2011 7:03:39 PM

i just stuck the gold shoe next to it...


it's too gold :/

i think the dress is more champagne-y...


hrmmm.

5/21/2011 7:36:07 PM

Joie do something fun like a bright pink or a blue shoe with the gold dress. Even a nude color might work.

5/21/2011 7:50:51 PM

i found a light pink that amy work really well. and a bright pink


thanks ya'll

5/21/2011 7:51:33 PM

Take pics

5/21/2011 7:55:09 PM

Ladies, what shoes can I wear with this dress? I'm really struggling to find some that look acceptable with it, thanks.

5/22/2011 10:17:13 AM

My first instinct is some adorable cherry red shoes.

5/22/2011 10:19:12 AM

Do a fun espadrille or wedge in a cute color

5/22/2011 10:40:00 AM

I liketheidea of a floral print wedge?





maybe?

5/22/2011 10:43:46 AM

I think turquoise and peacock blue look amazing with a rich purple.

5/22/2011 11:02:11 AM

What'd I do if I had that dress, and this is just my personal mixed up fashion haha, is wear those second wedges and pull one the of those colors into a necklace or sweater or something ...

5/22/2011 11:28:38 AM

Just ordered this. excited.

5/22/2011 1:41:21 PM

So I don't know if its just me but I left Express in Cary Towne Center feeling really bad about myself. They had some really cute dresses so I went to try them on. Problem is that the lighting is so bad in their dressing rooms I couldn't get over every single bump, mark, dimple, etc that it showed on my body. Never mind that it was so dark in the dressing room I couldn't even see how the dress looked on me fully. I ended up coming home and writing an email to their customer service. Im their typical medium sized client (size 8). I shouldn't have felt so insecure trying on their clothes. I was so disappointed that I left empty handed but I felt so bad about myself I just wanted to go home.

5/22/2011 1:55:47 PM

Id wear like ecu yellow shoes with the purple dress, or a bright cherry red like someone else mentioned

5/22/2011 4:22:43 PM

^^ baby, do NOT worry about it. i go through that all the time.
im a typical 6 and have my times where i do the same thing. youre gorgeous love ....and we all have our days.

GoldenGirl - that dress is gorgeous. dear god.


and...........

i want this top for obvious reasons


A. i would more than likely wear it pretty often even though its not exactly my style
B. im super broke but i really really think i should get it hahahaah (you know why)


what do you think?

5/22/2011 5:51:04 PM

how much is it? I would say 30 or less then yes, 30 or more not worth it.

5/22/2011 5:52:56 PM

^its 138

but man oh man


how often do you find something that literally has your name written on it?

[Edited on May 22, 2011 at 5:54 PM. Reason : i will probably end up doing it b/c im THAT person (plz oh plz dont think less of me )]

5/22/2011 5:54:15 PM

No ABS not wayyyyyy not worth it. that style is so common I am sure you could get it for $30.

and ya i just looked up my name mine is a cosplay costume.



[Edited on May 22, 2011 at 5:57 PM. Reason : wait don't want my full name up on tww]

5/22/2011 5:56:29 PM

^lol

if you look up my name this is the only piece of clothing that comes up.


you are completely right in that i can find it for less, but i'm not gonna lie......i am smitten that this tank is my name. i will probably get it.


( if i saw a cody clark shirt...regardless of what it looked like i would totally get it...same with my brother, my cousins, codys sister, my mom etc etc...why not for me thats my excuse hahah )

5/22/2011 6:01:43 PM

me and my roommate are the best! We had brunch today with sweet and savory crepes. The sweet fillings were strawberries, maple syrup, & homemade whipped cream. The savory filling was caramelized onions, hash browns, sharp cheddar, and thick cut bacon.

so classy!!!

5/22/2011 6:05:38 PM

that looks amazing!

5/22/2011 6:09:13 PM

Any TWW ladies ever visit me in Charleston ... we'll have brunch!! We can wear straw hats!

Thanks darling it's just really frustrating. I would think clothing stores would want to invest in good lighting and mirrors. I'm interested to see what kind of response, if any, I get back.

I am still looking for fun dresses that are inexpensive. I liked the express ones because they were cotton.

5/22/2011 6:14:40 PM

I WANT THAT SKILLET!!!

[Edited on May 22, 2011 at 6:44 PM. Reason : Joie has clothes named after her! Never gonna find Amna "Elizabeth" clothes.]

5/22/2011 6:42:30 PM

^^we all do it

i have a very good friend who i went shopping with recently...shes teeny weeny and about a size 2.
and she pointed out things that i never would have though of ("omg my hip bone is poking out" etc) and it was just further proof that we are all our worst critics.

and yes btw i have bought many a thing from express in cary that look 10 times better than in the store

[Edited on May 22, 2011 at 6:54 PM. Reason : s]

5/22/2011 6:53:47 PM

haha Joie don't get that top. I swear I saw the exact same thing at Target the other day for less. And I bet most people are going to think you bought that $138 top at Target when they see you wearing it rather than $texas

5/22/2011 6:56:10 PM

that is the point!!!

i'm not big on being showy with names.


i usually hate , hate, HATE things that have the tag or the logo on the outside. (i actually will turn down things on sale for that reason)
its weird for me to explain.


im probably gonna get it.
plz to not think bad of me

[Edited on May 22, 2011 at 7:43 PM. Reason : gsdd]

5/22/2011 7:42:20 PM

Buy the top

Its the principle

I don't hate you for it

5/22/2011 8:41:01 PM

hate to say it Joie, but the ladies are right to talk you down from this! if you're really "super broke" then spending $138 on a shirt is NOT a good idea! you should at least sleep on it

5/22/2011 8:59:33 PM

joie - in general i like your style most of the time but i find that shirt boring and not worth that much money. don't do it!
