Hmm, ladies, help me out! :nuts: Got this Rosita lace sweater dress on sale plus an extra 20 off during f&f. Was too lazy to take any decent pics, but I've got the one. I guess my concern is, it's a size small, but def roomier in the waist... I'm sure the P would fit me best there (cuz most things are roomy in the waist for me), but I've got a backside and hips to fit too, haha. :p

I suppose the fit here is best, right? I could always belt it, too, to get more waist definition.

The other issue is, the sweetheart neckline and sheerness is a pain, cuz I can't imagine what bra wouldn't be seen through the lace. Would that bother you? What would you do to remedy it?

I do think it's pretty and love sweater dresses in the fall/winter... but, do you think it's worth keeping? I don't need to work so hard to make a dress work, haha. :p

Here is the dress online:

Maybe the chick went braless, haha.

Hmmmm... Definitely a dilemma! I like the dress on you and think it could look nice belted, as long as the material doesn't bunch up. If the belt didn't work, I would be too lazy to get it tailored (but that is just me). Regarding the bra issue, could you wear the kind with the clear straps? That would solve the peeking through at the shoulders, but wouldn't help if the back is sheer too.

You look nice so if the dress is worth the effort I say keep!

Aww, thank you so much Rock girl. Yep it was almost a summer day yesterday and I was glad since I really wanted to be able to wear this dress at least once before next spring. Today it is not so nice but not cold either. Good for wearing my New Jeanne wrap dress that just arrived from the sales. Hopefully tomorrow.

So I just got a call from Outnet CS...they said there was a mistake on the website in the description of the Petal Dance Pink New Jeanne, and that the dress I will receive will actually be the same print but in white on navy. I went ahead with it, but I'm still disappointed. :(

So any of you ladies who ordered the Petal Dance Pink from the Outnet sale will have the option of the white/navy, or to cancel the order.

Oh that is disappointing. At least you can look at it and then decide if you want to keep it.

It is 80 degrees here today and so I don't have to wait to wear my Jenny wrap dress that I got recently from ebay. I have been stalking this dress since seeing it on Duke.

I really like the colors and patterns on you. You're so lucky that you still get to wear your summer wardrobe. It's been cold over here :push:

I think you should keep it. It looks great on you and I bet with the alterations it would be perfect!
