Question Is this dress a keeper?

Just picked this Ya Ya sweater dress up at Bloomies yesterday and now I'm having second thoughts...



The dress is soft alpalca but a bit see through (especially at the bottom).

I had originally planned to wear the dress with black tights and black knee high boots (similar to the 2nd picture). The SA that helped me said the dress fits me well (but he may be saying that to make the sale) and that it's sexy look without revealing much skin.

Is this a good buy or should I return it?

gymangel, the sweater dress is $395 at Bloomies. I think it comes in other colors too.

I really love it. I saw a couple by BCBG that were adorable! You should keep it. I bet that it looks fabulous on you. Everything else you wear looks great!

As long as you are very slim, or thin, I think it's a gorgeous dress.

Obviously, as it is white, tight and a chunky knit, this would not be a flattering combination on anyone but the slimmest/thinnest.

It's hard to say.. It looks better in the 2nd model than the first. I love the color and then length though. I'm sure you'll make the right decision. Goodluck.
