And yes, I hope hope hope that J Crew has more of this brilliant orange because it is so yummy in person - without veering into neon territory which not everyone loves.<br /><br />casual-crew - I apologize for the snow. I'll see what I can do about that. :)<br /><br />C - yes, ABC would totally refashion it as a tunic and it would be fab. And actually, if this dress ever goes down to super-mega sale, I will pick it up and have that done. Some slits in the side would definitely ease the bunching issue.<br /><br />yogagirl - i don't even think it would work with a belt without sizing up because it would still bunch. but you are so right about JC needing more Talls - these 15" skirts...meant to be worn at the waist...seriously???HeidiGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335791412412897005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871738287043527278.post-71522868942902519802010-02-22T12:56:33.697-05:002010-02-22T12:56:33.697-05:00I think the color looks very nice on you.
