Also, the dress in the ad very well may be a sample, which means a possible change in style, fabric, length, etc. I'm sure they have secret styling techniques to rev it up too. Honestly, I wouldn't feel comfortable buying it if I wasn't 100% sure. Internet returns are especially annoying.Lindsay Moorehttp://profiles.google.com/misslindsaymoorenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9016481461081716660.post-2487161512750609762012-04-10T15:56:25.372+01:002012-04-10T15:56:25.372+01:00I cant say I am familiar with it either but I do ...I cant say I am familiar with it either but I do think it is important to be available (fashion wise) for the girl who is not cookie cutter and cant fit into the traditional mold!A Fine Balancehttp://theartfulbalance.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9016481461081716660.post-55091824099158729292012-04-09T07:51:34.214+01:002012-04-09T07:51:34.214+01:00I like the Betty dress's shape a bit more than...I like the Betty dress's shape a bit more than some of the others. I'd have to say what's shown in the ads really raised my expectations a lot higher than what I found at the online shop. Everything in the shop, as you pointed out, is a bit shapeless which is what made me think of my grandmother. I think I'd have to have the pieces tailored or else get sewing lessons and learn how to do it myself for it to look as good on me as it does in the ads.Rachelhttp://rachelssymbioticlife.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9016481461081716660.post-62422487412107333232012-04-09T03:40:16.335+01:002012-04-09T03:40:16.335+01:00I'm not familiar with either, so I had to clic...I'm not familiar with either, so I had to click on the links to look a bit more. There are definitely a lot of gorgeous pieces. I would like to get my mitts on the Bad Joan dress, but like this 21 one, I think they lack a bit of waist definition. Kinda shapeless, really, in my opinions. I would probably wear a belt to make it look like I had a waist with all their dresses.laurahttp://theblogofworldlydelights.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
