Great to see some dresses on here. Two dresses, two reviews, one Houstonian offering his thoughts.
I'm going to have to Nay! the dress in Post #12,272. The pattern, while miniscule, isn't very lovely. The dress itself is... okay. It's a fail, just not an extreme fail. I'd probably go with a sleeveless dress with a fun and colorful pattern. Either that, or maybe a one-shoulder or strapless dress would be better.
Now on to Post #12,275 and the dress WhitleyGilbert posted. The pattern below the bustline is the only thing I don't like about it. I'm going to Yay! this dress. It is kind of like a short maxi dress. The mix of coral, camel, and chocolate designs blend in nicely for me. I like it.
So a fail on the first dress followed by a win for the second.
