Love love love the first one, not too keen on the second, third one is OK

MadameCastafiore · 24/02/2009 13:53

Aaaarrrrgggghhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!

What have you done woman???

I am going to have to buy that green one now!

Penthesileia · 24/02/2009 13:54

I can't say anything nasty about the first one, as I think it is nice! (buy it ).

But the second is horrid - sorry! You would look like a candy cane (unless that's your aim! ).

And the third is just boring. You want jazzier than that, surely?

Penthesileia · 24/02/2009 13:55

LOL at the fact that we all love the green one! What have you done????

Penthesileia · 24/02/2009 13:56

Seeing as I've saved you from the second two (which add up to the cost of the first), surely you can now buy the Day dress? Like, legitimately?

ClareintheCommunity · 24/02/2009 13:56

are you pg?

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 24/02/2009 13:57

I am reasoning with myself that the green dress is a bargain, especially if I don't buy the other two.

Makes sense right?

OP posts:
MrsMattie · 24/02/2009 13:57

Second one is truly hideous.

Third one looks like it could be from Next - very 'meh' kind of work dress.

Is that the sort of thing yo wanted ot hear?

(Shall not mention gorge first dress. That would be unfair ).

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 24/02/2009 13:58

x posts Penthesileia , I was right! Makes perfect sense

pg, why?

OP posts:
mustrunmore · 24/02/2009 13:59
  1. Looks weird, but much better than other two, but def would make me look pg
  2. Bloody hideous
2.Would be admitting defeat and might aswell wear a sack
Penthesileia · 24/02/2009 13:59

Perfect sense.

oh no I see it goes IN at the bototm - I only saw the top half - thought it was a mat dress.
Its nice.
But will it ever be hot enough to wear it?!

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 24/02/2009 14:05

I bought it, oh I'm excited.

There's only a few left buy now!

OP posts:
Penthesileia · 24/02/2009 14:07

Ooooh! Good for you! It is lovely. You will look beeyoootifulllll!

I bought this a couple of weeks ago, so I am sitting on my hands right now!

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 24/02/2009 14:10

Damn you, damn you, damn you

N-A-P is deadly.

LibrasJusticeLeagueofBiscuits · 24/02/2009 14:17
  1. Unless you are actually mannequin size the first will make you look pregnant.

  2. I can't see this one

  3. Is 'Meh' only, but would be ok for work.

LibrasJusticeLeagueofBiscuits · 24/02/2009 14:19

Shit. I'm really sorry I didn't read the rest of the thread and I see you have now bought it. Sorry.

ClareintheCommunity · 24/02/2009 14:20

What kind of work do you do? Is it very smart?

georgimama · 24/02/2009 14:23

Can't see the first one - has it sold out?

Second one is hideous - does that help?

BHS have an identical dress to the third one for 30 quid at the moment, it is not "meh" (but then I would say that because I own it) and looks fab with a short chunky necklace.

Molesworth · 24/02/2009 14:26

I think they're all stylish. #1 is rather daring and I assume would only suit beanpole figure. Love the stripey one - I'd wear that with jeans. The third one looks like a good investment for the office - can be jazzed up with all manner of accessories.

Wizzska · 24/02/2009 14:31

Noooo - don't make me want a dress. I love both those NAP dresses, and v. reasonable in price.

Must save money to buy a car. And am going to fashion week next week so will have to save pennies for that.

That green one is truly minging but the purple Chloe one is lovely!!
