I just bought four new sweater dresses from there for the winter. Glad you found something you liked! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4/page/2#post-2782359 Thu, 26 Oct 2017 15:39:03 +0000 littlebug 2782359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: @Adira: Thanks, ladies! I'm so glad I posted this and got the suggestion! JCP will officially be my first so for dresses in the future - they had a ton of good options! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4/page/2#post-2782358 Thu, 26 Oct 2017 15:34:33 +0000 Adira 2782358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: I love that dress on you!!

You look good! For shoes, I’d suggest a strappy one, but in black because of the season and dress color. Gold looks nice and warm with plum. A gold bracelet or earrings that also has jewel tone gems could be really pretty. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4/page/2#post-2782094 Thu, 26 Oct 2017 06:17:29 +0000 littlebug 2782094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ms. RV: @cyndistar3: @mrs.kiwi: Thanks! It's not really shimmery. That's just the way it looks because of having to adjust the picture so you could see the details of the dress. Also because of my filthy mirror. :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2782090 Thu, 26 Oct 2017 04:33:22 +0000 Ms. RV 2782090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: You look great! I think you made a good choice. It is a good crossover between business and cocktail. I don't think you need much jewelry, especially since the dress looks a little shimmery. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2782065 Wed, 25 Oct 2017 21:20:01 +0000 mrs.kiwi 2782065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: super cute and looks great on you!</p> <p>@Adira: never thought of jcpenney for dresses but those are some great choices.. next time I need a dress I know where to look </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2782061 Wed, 25 Oct 2017 20:51:10 +0000 cyndistar3 2782061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: love that dress!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2782051 Wed, 25 Oct 2017 19:38:23 +0000 littlebug 2782051@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ina85: No idea about jewelry. I'm thinking these shoes from Target. I love this style, but I can't do high heels anymore, and I usually see this style on sky-high heels. I'm going to keep looking for something similar with a less chunky heel, but those are my backup plan. </p> [attach=2005/17/oyen3z.337x600.Screenshot_20171025-203356.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2782048 Wed, 25 Oct 2017 19:31:31 +0000 Ina85 2782048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebug: The plum dress is cute, much more flattering than the previous two! Looks perfect for your reunion. What type of jewelry are you thinking to wear and shoes? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2782044 Wed, 25 Oct 2017 18:55:52 +0000 littlebug 2782044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, here is what I got. It's one of the dress @Adira: posted, but in plum rather than black. I'm pretty happy! Now for shoes and accessories... </p> [attach=2005/17/oyel55.450x600.IMG_20171025_195012.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2780817 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 14:05:06 +0000 littlebug 2780817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PawPrints: Yes! I think that's my problem with the top one. I love it, but I think it's too much skin for "business attire." And yes, I agree, I think most people will go cocktail attire. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2780813 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 13:58:05 +0000 PawPrints 2780813@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The top one looks really exposed to me, whereas the bottom one definitely works as a cute cocktail dress (which I really think is what they were going for with "business attire" though that is definitely not the best word choice). I'd wear it esp since you already own it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2780793 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 13:07:20 +0000 Mrsbells 2780793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: haha i know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2780791 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 13:05:53 +0000 Purpledaisy 2780791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I love that one.

That second one would work for that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2780678 Thu, 19 Oct 2017 06:13:42 +0000 Adira 2780678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: What about something like this?

I say that I am a rectangle with boobs :silly: . My waist and hips and almost the same, I have pretty much no natural waist. </p> <p>How about something like this <a href="https://www.whitehouseblackmarket.com/store/product/banded+black+sheath+dress/570183032?color=001&#038;catId=cat90006" rel="nofollow">https://www.whitehouseblackmarket.com/store/product/banded+black+sheath+dress/570183032?color=001&#038;catId=cat90006</a></p> <p>I feel that the detail around the waist would help to give more shape and I tend to find V necks to be flattering. </p> [attach=3580/17/oy1gzl.337x600.IMG_2741.PNG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2780607 Wed, 18 Oct 2017 15:04:23 +0000 psw27 2780607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it says business I would go with something like @mrsbells or @adira suggested! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2780605 Wed, 18 Oct 2017 15:01:44 +0000 Mrsbells 2780605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: thanks! here is the link, its from nordstrom.

I wonder if they are just saying that so people don't show up in jeans. Neither are too dressy for a HS reunion. Girl...you want to look like you own it..so wear whatever makes you feel bomb and beautiful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-dress-4#post-2780512 Wed, 18 Oct 2017 12:28:09 +0000 looch 2780512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh, business attire...that makes it tough, neither one of the dresses is something I'd wear to the office.</p> <p>I would probably do a column of black as the base (tank over pants) and a topper of some sort. </p>
