The dress of my dreams...

i saw this in nordstroms and almost freaked out. i am willing to open a nordstroms card for the like 10% discount on it and start making payments.
its just totally beautiful and everything, until the price (almost $400)

im a super cheap person, most of my shopping is done in a thrift store or on sale racks, so me willing to go this far for a dress is quite odd.

so here is the dress:
http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail_STL.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=84552444 6133360&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=282574492145815&ASSO RTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395222441&bmUID=11424777 16465&ev19=4:14

just wondering what you guys thought of it......

Re: the dress of my dreams...

Re: the dress of my dreams...

It's pretty, and it's my favorite color... but that is a pretty steep price to pay for something that you don't know when you're gonna wear it. Have you looked for something similar that might be a little cheaper? Maybe someone is selling it on ebay?

Re: the dress of my dreams...

it's pretty. but think about how often you'd wear it. maybe your taste in clothes will change and you won't wear it anymore.

Re: the dress of my dreams...

It's a pretty dress, but I don't think I'd pay that much for it, especially if I wouldn't know where to wear it to. Plus, it's not a classic cut, so you won't be able to wear it to every 'nice' occasion you'll go to.

Re: The dress of my dreams...

Hey i think the dress is awsome! I would really buy it. After saving up money for the full price and hopefully by the time i have all the money saved up it would go on sale. Just may be

That's a really pretty dress, not sure I'd be willing to pay $400 for it though

Re: The dress of my dreams...

The dress is gorgeous, it's a classic flapper dress. Have you tried consignment shops or websites? I believe you can find something similar for a much smaller price.
