Keep or return

Received a few things for holiday today. Definitely retiring one dress and one top, but undecided on two other dresses.

Can you tell me what you think?

I'm not sure that puff sleeves suit me on the spotty dress, and I'm just more sure about the coloured one overall.

Obviously the spotty dress needs ironed!

Thank you!

Love the coloured one

poppyart · 22/06/2022 18:54

I think the white one makes you too top heavy but the second one is lovely, it give you a lovely silhouette and shows you shape, very pretty

ApolloandDaphne · 22/06/2022 19:02

The coloured one is great on you. Keep that one.

JofraArchersFastestBall · 22/06/2022 19:09

I agree, the bright one looks great on you.

maeveiscurious · 22/06/2022 19:13

Coloured one is lovely

HiGunny · 22/06/2022 19:22

The coloured one really suits you - keep it!

YukoandHiro · 22/06/2022 19:23

Both a no from me I'm afraid

Toughtimesagain · 22/06/2022 19:25

Keep the coloured one but return the puff sleeves, I say

SilverPeacock · 22/06/2022 19:28

Agree that the coloured one is good keep it. Send the other back as it looks ill fitting

Lovemusic33 · 22/06/2022 19:29

I like the coloured one too, where did you buy it?

I like them both, but agree that the 2nd one is more flattering.

Littleelffriend · 22/06/2022 19:39

The coloured one makes you look 2 sizes smaller than the other one

RockaLock · 22/06/2022 19:39

The 2nd dress looks far better on you, I think.

The spotty one is not nearly so flattering, and also it's so thin that your underwear is fairly visible through it...

Isabelle70 · 22/06/2022 19:42

I like the coloured one on you. The spotty one just looks washed out and I think it's the big buttons that are putting me off it too.

SpongeBobJudgeyPants · 22/06/2022 19:44

I vote keep the coloured one, return the other one. There's something about the sleeves, or the way they are attached, that doesn't look quite right.

girlmom21 · 22/06/2022 19:45

Put a belt with the spotty dress because it doesn't have much shape but the sleeves are lovely.
The colourful one looks really nice.

FruitFlies · 22/06/2022 19:46

I don't like either because they both widen your shoulder and it messes with your proportions but the colourful one with ruffle sleeves is better than the white puffed one. I think shorter dress mid thigh or longer dress to mid calf would look better.

CoffeeAndTV1 · 22/06/2022 19:47

I'd keep the second one, but not the first one. I don't think the sleeves are great and it looks a wee bit fast fashiony to me...the second one is more classic and won't date I don't think

doingmyboxin · 22/06/2022 20:03

Okay, looks like will be keeping one out of four then.

Good news for my bank account at least Grin

Yep, defo the coloured one!

TattiePants · 22/06/2022 21:12

I’d send the first one back as the sleeves and neckline don’t do anything for you.

Lovinglife45 · 23/06/2022 06:38

I suggest you return the first dress. The second is more flattering.

CinnamonJellyBeans · 23/06/2022 07:41

The second one is a good shape, but I think that pattern is more like a work dress, rather than a holiday. Also, those frills on the sleeves; what purpose do they serve?

TokyoSushi · 23/06/2022 07:45

Do you have a link to the coloured one? It's lovely!
