IF you buy a dress you like but don’t love, do you keep it ?

Say you think ya nice and you could see yourself wearing it
But you don’t LOVE it

Here

Got this in the Black Friday sale for 118
I do love the colour and I do like it
But I’m not sure I love it

Can’t decide if I should keep it or not
If it was 40/50quud I’d probably just keep it

For £118 I'd have to love it, somid send it back if I were you ...... you don't seem overly enamoured so I'd save your money for something that you enjoy more :)

An everyday dress yes, if I was low on work dresses.

That is a dress that you should LOVE, in my opinion.

Wearing it should make you happy. Or else don't wear it, wear something else that does make you happy.

No. Lovely dress but send it back if you're not sure or you'll never wear it

WhatWouldTheDoctorDo · 29/11/2017 21:21

Take it back. If you don't love it you'll hardly wear it, which defeats the purpose of a bargain!

If it was a day dress then maybe but not for a going out dress. If you are not sure now you will always be trying it and changing.

Sentimentallentil · 29/11/2017 21:28

I’d send it back, you need to love it to wear a dress like that.
I have one almost identical that I got a couple of years ago but it was only £25.
To be that doesn’t look like an expensive dress either.

I agree, if it had been under £50 and something I'd wear regularly anyway then I'd probably keep it. At that price and that style of dress, I'd have to love it.

WhooooAmI24601 · 29/11/2017 22:13

Nope for that price I'd need to love it.

Unless it’s something “basic” like a black polo neck jumper, my rule is that it needs to make me want to do a happy dance, or it goes back/doesn’t get bought. (I generally do not actually dance, but you get the drift.)

LardLizard · 29/11/2017 22:24

Thanks for the advice
I think your right for that price i need to love it

I think I just really like the colour more gab anything as get so sick looking round and it’s bkack black black
Did get a nice green dress the other dy though so not desperate or anything

Ok I’ll send it back with a slightly heavy heart

Thanks for your time
