I just wanted to say Thank You very very much for last night. I appreciate the help you tried to give me. I didn't get a chance to thank you because I was overwhelmed with trying to defend myself against the other girls in the post.

I have a clearer understanding now of what kind of dress to look for and I'm going to go looking again on my lunch break. You really don't know how much I appreciate your help. I know that a lot of times I dress to provocatively and I really am trying to change that.

Its really frustrating when you don't know what to do and then to be insulted time and time again for your attempts makes it even harder.

I know that you girls understood my issue. I can tell you girls really were genuinely trying to help.

I will probably post photos, if I find a dress that is acceptable today. I would really appreciate your opinions.

[eddy]

No prob, bob.

Do you have a kohls in your city? I think they have cute stuff at a low price.

I agreed with whoever said don't let the dress wear you. You should wear the dress. You have a nice figure and can pull something really simple off. A well fit, classy dress is very sexy if that is the look you are going for.

[papie]

Good luck!

I read through the post this morning and totally honed in on that quote eddy mentioned about you wearing the dress.

You're really pretty and have a great body, no need to go with busy, fussy dresses!

[cardiganagain]

I'm not trying to AW here. I just want to make sure I'm headed into the right direction. Now I don't have this dress anymore. I returned it because I thought I was told this is bad idea and it was to tight. Can you please confirm that this is somewhat in the ball park. Either something like this or an a-line dress.

[fuckyourcouch]

i think that looks much better on you than the other options, but i think something a-line would suit you better.

that shape is not bad (more figure hugging shape) but if you are going to wear that shape, you have to make sure it fits you correctly.

Understood.

[fuckyourcouch]

I only have an hour for lunch. I have to go to Ross to return the dresses I bought yesterday. I'm just going to skim through there again. (I I doubt I'll find anything though) If I don't find anything, I'm going to go to the mall after I pick DS up from the bus stop.

Our mall has JCP and there is Target across the street from our mall.

Also when you are looking for something inexpensive, I think the less form fitting the better. It will just lay better.

I loved the red dress from Kohls that was posted last night. It had a high neckline and a little black belt. Something like that would look very nice on you.

This is why I worry about a-line dresses. Of these options on this chart I have the pancake butt. The pancake butt gives you two lumps for hips instead of 1 round shape. A-line dresses tend show both of my lumps. I'm going to look for the bigger size dresses or an a-line that is very full so it will hopefully hide my pancake butt because that pancake shape is not only on my butt but it's on my hips too.

I think you should find something that accentuates your waist, but isn't too tight int the chest or butt. Good luck

I couldn't see that dress. Can you post it again?

[fuckyourcouch]

a-line won't show your "two lumps" evee - but too tight figure hugging dresses will.
i have ridiculous hips that i am always trying to figure out how to masquerade, so i get it. just humor us all and try a nice a-line with an accentuated waist (belt, sash, etc). i bet you feel like a million bucks. they are almost universally flattering.

Ok. I can do it.

The last link in Crickets post is beautiful I like all of them but the last one I think would look great on you. Good luck!

(she did try to help evee!)

[luckyval]

I know you're hitting the stores, but I saw these online and think they would be so cute on you

[luckyval]

With your look and coloring, I think a retro full skirt would be spot on for you evee

I was going to thank Sake last night for the different dresses. I really liked the green and black one she picked out. I became so overwhelmed from all the insults from other girls in the thread that I didn't have a chance to thank her. Then before I knew it, she started chiming in with this

SERIOUSLY? i posted THREE fucking pretty, nice, APPROPRIATE dresses for a holiday party, and you immediately shot them down b/c your H didn't like a dress that was similar a few weeks ago. But you keep tying on/buying/posting dresses that all have the exact same issue... too tight, too short.

You are wasting your time, and our time posting these damn dresses. So either keep one, and wear it, even though it's not really work or age appropriate, OR, get a different style of dress, and ask us about that one.

These are way out of your price range, but I'm positive you could find something in store like these and you would look amazing. Remember these Evee!!

These are amazing and I wish so much that I could afford these. I would wear that green one very well.

[sake]

Yes, I did say that, b/c I honestly feel like you are tolerable, and even likeable at the beginning of a lot of your posts, and then get so caught up defending yourself, and that becomes obnoxious to me very quickly. B/c it seems to play out the same every time.
I didn't think people were trying to me mean to you last night. They were just pointing out that they had said the same things about all of the dresses, and given you constructive criticism, and you continued to post dresses that had the same style, even though girls were trying to help you by suggesting different styles.
I know it can be frustrating trying to find something that is in a budget, and looks nice. I have tried before for MONTHS to find something to wear for a special occasion that i know is coming up, b/c I usually don't want to drop a lot of money on a dress. But people were REALLY trying to be helpful, and I didn't feel like you were listening at all. And I became annoyed with the whole thing.

So, I apologize if I was too blunt. I could have said it in a nicer way, but my sentiment is still the same, that if you come here wanting advice, then either take the advice and run with it, or quit asking for it.
Next time, I will try to be more gentle.

Its all good and I appreciate your apology. It's over, like dash said. I'm about to head out for a quick search. If I find anything, I let you guys know. Thanks again everyone.
