Default What do you think of this Athleta dress? Oh and two more things?

I'm drooling a bit over the latest Athleta catalog.

What do you think of this dress?

Anyone happen to have it?

I could see that with heels, boots, sandals, etc. It seems very versatile. I don't have it but like it!

10lbs from now I plan to buy it. I've always liked it.

Sorry. Don't have it but I love the color and cut. I think it would be very flattering and easy to wear.

Thanks! I'm debating color. And some other items. . . .

What do you think of this?

Ok, you have to go to the Athleta store on Fillmore at Sacramento. I tried on that first dress you linked to and I'm sure they have the others as well. The Nectar dress was very cute (although I didn't get it) but I thought this Radiant dress (which is similar and on sale in some colors) was even cuter. Much to my surprise, after trying on every dress in the store, I got this Hawi hoodie dress (in dark blue), which is very flattering on me and does not look like a cover-up at all! I am going to get this summer dress in blue when it goes on sale - SO cute. (I went to the store intending to get this dress, but it looked super baggy on me, which is why I'm recommending going in store!) Had I ordered online I would have gotten the wrong size - I ended up needing to size down on Athleta. And don't get the Tall size unless you are over 5'9" - the dresses are longish.

If you don't feel like going down to the store (it is such a fun shop; I highly recommend it!) then they have free returns on orders placed before Jan 31, and free ship on everything over $50, which is pretty much everything. Oh, and you can use your Gap credits towards Athleta, which is how the $80 dress cost me $60. Can you tell I love this brand?

It does sound like fun. And it might be worth it since I have several things in mind. It's just a bit of a challenge. Much easier to order online.

Oh, this dress totally caught my eye. I really like it, and imagine it would be very flattering. I will probably bite the bullet in a few months though, when the weather starts getting warmer here. With the free shippng/returns, you can't really lose. gl!
