Thumbs up, one this one. :)
ReplyDeleteBIG thumbs up! I'm in love with long lengths. (Gorgeous blazer too!) X
ReplyDeleteAdorable dress, but she can't be a day over thirteen years old. Maybe I'll wear it in my next life though... :-)

Thumbs up! We both have long dresses on the brain! I usually only wear them to lounge around the house or for flights. But I really like that one.
ReplyDeletei like the maternity dress better. :) love the ankle boots.
ReplyDeleteThumbs way up! It's not overbearing like some you see, she looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI never wear long dresses either and wish I did. I think it's because I'm tall. They never seem to be long enough. Nothing worse than an unflattering mid-calf cut!
ReplyDeleteIt's suuuuuuuuuper sweet! I loved it. Super like long dresses, they are so confy to wear.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog!
Im really tall and I enjoy wearing long flowy dresses...So for me its thumbs up all the way!
ReplyDeleteI give it a thumbs up, but with a caveat; not everyone can pull it off.
ReplyDeleteI love it in the olive color on the right.
I'm torn. I love long dresses and have quite a few myself, but I don't know if I like how full the skirt on this one is. It's definitely not for the shorter girls!
ReplyDeleteLOVE long dresses but i dont think im tall enough to pull them off. ah well. xoxo jcd
ReplyDeleteps be sure to stop by and enter my first giveaway:: http://cornflakedreams.blogspot.com/
I want to like it, but having curves and being tall - that's a whole lotta dress!
ReplyDeleteBecca
I like it! I love wearing long dresses - though not compared to my brother, I'm pretty tall.... so they don't totally drown me

Thumbs up! I think long dresses and skirts look very elegant if done properly.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a long dress either even though I've been thinking about buying one lately... they can look so cool!!! :)

It looks amazing on the model, but I'm afraid anything that length and that shape makes me look pregnant--and I am certainly not! (the shoes and jacket are awesome though).
ReplyDeleteadorable!
ReplyDeletethumbs way up for sures!!!!
ReplyDeleteI could definitely get on board with this dress, I love the color and accordion pleats. The only issue I'm having is the mock turtleneck. It's a little too 1970's Marianne Faithful, if you know what I mean.
ReplyDeletehaha, di, so funny :) i love all these comments!
ReplyDeleteabsolutely love this look. 2 thumbs up!
ReplyDeletesuper cute but not for this shorty :/
ReplyDeleteu have been blogging for so long!
ReplyDeletei wish u could tell me what u think of my blog!

I think it's gorgeous! I don't wear long dresses much either, but I always feel so free and flowy when I do.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a thumbs up! I've been in love with maxi dresses and broomstick dresses for years!
ReplyDeleteI love long dresses! Great way to transition to Spring : )

It is very romantic. I would love to wear it!
ReplyDeletethe short jacket is what keeps it from looking like a nightgown.....
ReplyDeletei love it, too :)
I wouldn't wear it but I think it looks great on her!!
ReplyDeleteAs a concept, they are okay, but realistically, they make most women look like a sister-wife or just plain frumpy.
ReplyDeleteOof, I don't know about this one. It's boxy to the max. Maybe with a belt?
ReplyDeletegreat dress!! i love long dresses, but mostly on other people since i feel too short to pull them off...
ReplyDeleteThumbs up on the look but you have to be careful when wearing it, make sure you have the right body type otherwise it will be the perfect maternity dress on a non pregnant body :)
ReplyDeleteI really really REALLY want that dress. Might have to ask for that as an early birthday gift.
ReplyDeleteYum!

thumbs all the way up! I LIVE in maxi dresses during the warm weather- lucky for me, I live in SoCal so this attire is always an option :) LOVE this dress!
ReplyDeletethumbs up! I love the complete look!
ReplyDeletelove!
ReplyDeleteup. way up.
ReplyDeleteI just love long dresses Joanna, I wear them in the summer all the time and lately I'm seeing women wear them with boots in the winter, so chic! I need to stop being scared and give it a try:)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely thumbs up! I wish I had the courage to wear long dresses - I'm tall enough but they simply feel weird once on, after the million short skirts I've had.

It makes a beautiful statement!!
ReplyDeleteMelanie's Randomness
thumbs up!!
ReplyDeletebut I have to admit that I also never really did wear such a dress.. :)
but I love the look anyways!
Absolutely a thumbs up! Perfect pairing with a cropped sweater and belt!
ReplyDeleteBubbs...

Love the maternity dress !!! Deciding factor for Mr Aditha to get the second baby going.... :-)
ReplyDelete(sorry for my english !)
Love it. She looks great. However, I might look like a housefrau in this I love the beige and olives and wedge boots, too!
ReplyDeleteThumbs up! I not only love maxi dresses but also have one. Check it ou Jo:
ReplyDeletehttp://vouprarua.blogspot.com/2011/01/fui-pra-rua-de-maxi-dress-lary.html
I love it and I want to have one more! :)
for sure thumbs up. always love when comfort and style come together :)
ReplyDeleteThe dress is cute but I could NEVER wear it. I'm short and the long dresses make me look stunted and disproportionate.
ReplyDeleteabsolutly Thumbs UP..she looks adorable-beautiful with this dress!
ReplyDeletelove long dresses! being so tall, it's hard to find some that are long enough, but when you do, it's great! so flattering and elongating!
ReplyDeleteLove the olive color. I think I'd belt it or pair it with a longer, buttoned cardigan. If you're not a stick it's pretty hard to pull off the "no shape" shape.
ReplyDeleteThere is something magical about how billowy the dress is. So just add someone following me around with a low-powered wind machine and I'm sold!
ReplyDeleteI just saw this over on Ref 29 and I am in love with it. If it was just a little cheaper, I would buy it...
ReplyDelete...Megan
I love long dresses. I wear it during summer often day and night. So dreamy..
ReplyDeleteI love long dresses. I have to say, I'm not crazy about the high neck on this dress though. The boots are adorable, as well as the little blazer
ReplyDeleteLove it! I don't think it's out of the question for 30-somethings at all! I have a similar dress. It just depends on how you wear it and accessorize it. Plus if you have funky style, you can wear ANYTHING and make it look great! Aren't we learning something from all the killer style blogs out there? Style isn't a recipe....it's an expression! Let you be you in whatever you want to wear! xo
ReplyDeleteI love it. Long dresses always make me feel chic and put together. I'm pregnant now and have looked at that French Connection dress a few times online : ) So pretty.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! It's funny that I read this today, because today I'm wearing my first maxi dress in my 85 Dress Challenge (I'll be posting it up later this afternoon, if you're interested).

So funny that you would post this, as I have plans to run over to the fabric store on my lunch break to buy a jersey knit to makea long dress tonight!! Yesterday, I just wanted this dress that I could imagine in my mind, and tonight, I'm going home after work to make it :)
ReplyDeleteUp.
ReplyDeleteHmm... that's a tough one. I'd worry that without the wind, the stick-like figure, and the impish downcast look, the dress might just look like a nightgown. I wouldn’t want people to confuse me with the 90-year-old woman upstairs, now would I?
ReplyDeleteThe blazer is spot on though so it’s not all for naught :)
love this dress!! and i live in maxi dresses in the summer - they are so easy especially with a little one!
ReplyDeletethumbs up for flowy and ethereal.
ReplyDeletethumbs up if you look like a ballerina.
ReplyDeletei feel silly in long dresses. that one looks pretty though. i had to laugh at the above comment about if you look like a ballerina :)
ReplyDeleteI think long dresses are so lovely and elegant! In the summertime I live in them, they feel so flowy and graceful... Plus they are very forgiving!
ReplyDeletelove long dresses, they just scream ease.
ReplyDeleteI've got a long dress (I'm 5'2") and I love love LOVE it. It's free flowing and flatters my body quite well. Who knew!
ReplyDeleteWardrobe staple. Pregnant/nursing or not. So comfy, elegant and wonderful.
ReplyDeleteA total go.
nice dress! i am seeing a lot of long dresses lately. the only time i wore a long dress was when i was pregnant, but i might reconsider strutting this new trend around town now with my two year old tot.
ReplyDeletethumbs down. that dress is probably only flattering on women that are 6 feet tall and 110 pounds...with no hips. i would look ridiculous in it.
ReplyDeletethumbs up to the dress AND to the shoes. : ) Lovely. I think I would feel serene all day in a dress like that.
ReplyDeleteI think it's lovely...for the right figure. The wearer should be tall and thin (seems like you are, so go for it!) But for me (early 40s, post-pregnancy bulge) not so much. And I'm not sure about the short jacket either. Seems too ...something. Trendy? Twenty-something? I don't know.
ReplyDeleteThumbs up! I love long dresses, especially ones like this, with that flowy romantic feel.
ReplyDeleteI am loving the long lengths! and I am loving your blog! I am new to the blog world, and so excited to be a part! I will have to pull some long dresses out!
ReplyDeleteWould love your help with my Blog Header! It is a Giveaway too!

up up genial!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOf course thumbs up! I'm dreaming to wear it!
ReplyDeletebig thumbs up! (I'm 5'11" and couldn't be happier about the maxi trend; a lot of those adorable "dresses" that have been coming out of late are completely inappropriate on my frame.) But after over indulging on the shoe front (and contemplating one...more...pair! for spring!), I'm going to have to make my own maxi skirts/dresses.
ReplyDeleteI love those boots!
ReplyDeleteI love long dresses and so glad they are back in style! This one is gorgeous also.
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, big fat thumbs up from me too. I also covet a long floaty number - and I'm searching for the perfect one - but deep down I know they just don't suit me...(insert sigh)...
ReplyDeletethumbs up for long dresses :)
ReplyDeletehttp://pinklemonincrystal.blogspot.com
It is a thumbs up. Definitely.
ReplyDeleteThis post inspired me to finally wear my long skirt from AA today. :)
ReplyDeleteLove this dress, long dresses are my secret weapon in masking unshaven legs during the spring. Sh!

ReplyDeletexo

ReplyDeleteLove love love, thumbs so up they're stuck in my ceiling... ouch.... :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I could pull it off, but I LOVE it. Definitely a thumbs up.
ReplyDeleteI've been on the hunt for over a year! I'm 5'10 and every one I try on is too short on me!
ReplyDeleteI'm totally in love with this outfit
ReplyDeletei LOVE this dress....i just saw it on refinery 29. must have it.
