Daily Outfit: So About This Dress

2011Jul12 2

Ok you're gonna have to do a lot of pretending here... like pretending that these pictures are not out of focus and pretending that I bothered to iron this dress... oh yeah and pretending that my hand doesn't look like a claw or like it's about to go all Idle Hands on someone in the first pictures. So now that we've got that sorted out, let's talk about this dress. 

I was SO excited about this dress the moment I saw it on the site. I have been drooling over the actual price prohibitive Marc Jacobs dress this is a knock off of since it came out, so finally finding a dress that resembles it and is in my price range was very exciting. I am, however, sad to say that this is a pretty poor quality knock off. Not only is it ridiculously thin and made of cheap material, but the seams don't even match up and there are weird strings hanging off of the seams. I definitely expected much better quality of something that was nearly $50. Now I'm sure you're asking why I am wearing it if it has all these flaws. My answer is I don't think I'm going to find better than it in my price range without making it myself... so I'd rather have this one than none at all... and honestly no one else seemed to notice the flaws. Just I'm just going to shrug and give you guys the warning so that if you plan on getting this dress you'll at least know.
