How do I look????

Ok so I need your help. Since losing all this weight, 29 lbs to be exact, I have very little if no clothes that fit. Everything is too big or out of style. So today I went to Target to find a dress and some clothes. I found this Issac dress on the clearance rack for $12. Crazy huh, it was normally $49, what a deal. The even better part was that the only size they had was a 6, I thought no way, but I took it into the dressing room and low and behold IT FIT!!!! I was so excited and shocked at the same time. I couldn't even remember the last time I was that size.
Anyways, I need your help. Please leave any and all comments you would like, even negative, I need to know if I should keep the dress, take it back, wear these black Steve Maddens which I love and which by the way last fall were $9 at Dillard's. I love good deals can you tell? Or if I should wear different shoes, different top, what kind of jewelry, or if it is good the way it is.
Basically let me know what you think.
My attempt at being a model.
(didn't turn out so well, my husband never counts before he takes a picture.)
How do I look?

Before I read your post, I just saw the picture and I thought "She looks so good in that dress" and then I might have had some jealousy thought...anyway-you look so good and I think the dress is really cute. I love the shoes too.

I LOVE that dress!!! You look great in it! Definitely keep it. Do you have a top w/ a little shorter sleeves? If not, it still looks adorable. But I was thinking like a layers shirt or one that you get from Downeast, the cap sleeve ones. Anyways, I love it!

I'm kinda having this thing with green this year. it is my latest oppsession, so YES I do love the dress. might i add that you look freakin' hot! love the hair cut with it, so fresh!
and i don't think you can ever go wrong with steve maddens, but you can always dress it down with some flip flops, for play dates, or shopping.

to cute, thanks for sharing.

I am definitely not a fashion expert. So I can't give you any advice, but you do look wonderful!! It's a really cute dress.

You look good! And I love the shoes with it.

Sammy said...

WOW! Yeah, i love the dress and the shoes look so cute with it, you could do brown or black, then just wear brown or black jewelry. So cute!

Amy said...

I love it and I new you would get great comments! Green is and always will be your color especially with your dark hair! I think it looks cute just like that, but I'd probably wear the kind of shirt like I had on that day. I would also wear some funky jewelry, But for church and stuff, you are perfect! can i borrow it if I ever get to a size 6 again?

Samantha said...

You look amazing! So cute! You definately have to keep it! I would maybe wear a more stylized top -- cap sleeves, or the little-puffy sleeves or something like that -- something beyond your basic T -- but it's definately good the way it is, too! Love the shoes -- way cute! Brown shoes would go well also! :)

The dress is so darling!!! I get a lot of my clothes from Target. If my undertop was white I would wear white shoes, and white bracletes. Or if the the top underneath were black then I would wear black shoes and accessories. Also I would make sure the undershirt is very fitted. The less material the better. Just some suggestions. YOu look amazing, my mom and sister could stop talking about it after the shower.

One more suggestion. Try putting a cardigan over the top, that would look really cute too!

Giiiiiirl, hot diggity. You are smokin'. I think it's darling. To get funky wear a big baubly pink necklace.

I think nough said... the poses are perfect. I was thinking the cap sleeve too, but you'd look cute in it no matter what was underneath. If you were feeling really crazy you could try some diff colors underneath, light pink or yellow might be fun.

Lauren said...

oh way way way cute! and the price is cute as well! My suggestion would be to wear a black shirt underneath if your going to wear the black shoes!

Wow April, you look amazing, I was talking to Grandma the other day, and she was saying how skinny, but healthy you looked, she's so funny, but I had to see for myself. You look amazing! Seriously, and I love the dress, gorgeous.
