another dress i found at a thrift store. it's actually prettier in person and i really like the color. it's loose on me in the waist but i think i'm going to keep it. but what about the length? should i cut it short? any thoughts?

ps: my head stays in the photo for my mom. ; )

I love it! The color is great on you, and I even like the length. I wouldn't go too much shorter. There's something so relaxed and easy about it.

This is a gorgeous photo of you. I also like the length, I say keep it as is.
You always find the best stuff in thrift stores!

I would say cut to above yr knees for a more flirty, fun look. And a cool belt would make this dress a real stunner. :)

i love it! i would go to the knees on the length if you wanted it shorter

I like the pleats and the waistband of this dress. I think the long length is making it look old fashioned, though. I would say cut it to your knee level, either right above or below. It would still look relaxed.

i like the color. The dress has an elegance about it. I would suggest shortening it so that it rests just slightly below the knee. I think it would liven it up a little bit.

I think keep it, the length looks really good.

Gorgeous dress... I would hem it so that it falls a nice 2" or so below the knee, but not any shorter... Makes me daydream about summer days while sitting here in chilly Chicago!

beautiful! I think it would look fantastic just a few inches shorter, too.

knee length! the length is swallowing your tiny body. (and also pinning it in on the sides above the waistband so it's more always-flattering) beautiful colour!

Before I even read the post I saw the pic and said that dress could use a trim. I definitely think it would be even more beautiful just above the knee. Great Find!

I love that colour too.
It's a lovely dress.

such a pretty dress on you!

Andrea said...

cut! it's so pretty but I think it would be sexier (less debutante) just a little shorter. I think it would let it swing more.

I love this dress! You look so good in it too :) Agree, cutting it to knee length would render it perfect. ;)
