which color? I like the yellow, it's cute

I wish it came in more colors. I can't wear yellow (skin tone conflicts thanks to my japanese heritage) and I'm too clutzy to wear white, so black it is.

sadness...a well, it's still cute...although it could be a little sexy and revealing up top

sexy is what i go for with dresses. And if the top part is too revealing I can wear a tank top underneath.

oh no, now i'm full blown online shopping.

ow ow!

yeah I'm too modest for anything very sexy

cantwaitforuva · Post by **cantwaitforuva** » Wed Apr 23, 2008 12:46 am

haha.

I have a secret love of 1950s dresses. The kind with a full skirt and cinched at the waist - they're so flattering on a woman's body.

This is adorable. If only it wasn't $230.

I almost bought that (obvi in the adult sizes) in the Low Riders print for the Foxfield Races (see TJ's DoublePlay!), and while my excuse was that it would be perfect Foxfields attire, really, I just wanted a dress with little horses and pompom trim! Shameful, I know!!!

SHEER AMAZINGNESS. Believe it or not, my horse dress is a little crazier than that. It's orangish-red with little yellow abstract horses, a tight top, flared and layered skirt with a yellow layer sticking out the bottom, and BALLOON SLEEVES. It's my stepford wife dress, but now you gave me the brilliant idea of wearing it to Foxfield

Oh my!! very pricey.

And I didn't know JCrew made wedding dresses

seems the "cookie cut" uva man or woman comes from a jcrew or ralph lauren catalog...

I prefer J Crew and Lacoste

Ralph Lauren just doesn't fit as well (but I still have some stuff).

Fortunately for me, UVA is one place where I won't be embarrassed to wear all my preppiest attire! Hooray!

greygoose · Post by **greygoose** » Wed Apr 23, 2008 9:59 am

i think for guys, it's nearly all the same, khakis/collared shirts/polos/collared shirts/sweater, etc.

but yea i'm looking forward to rocking the collared shirts/sweaters all winter.

sia: i see where you don't think RL fits in:

Seriously! You can't have more than an A cup to wear the average Ralph Lauren outfit. It's nuts.

That is indeed why I stopped wearing them after my 12th birthday.

That's how I feel about Lacoste! The polos are weirdly short on me (which makes no sense because I'm definitely not tall!)

BTW I love that this fashion discussion is happening and is also not limited to the girls!!

But Lacoste has so many sizes that you can always find the right one! I am a size 40 (8) in the polos, but I get a 38 (6) in normal shirts and sweaters and occasionally a 36 (4). It's just nice that there are more sizes than just small, medium, and large. Their polos are a tad short, but I think it's all relative to torso length.
