    Just an FYI – I bought the Coach Tour dress a year and a half or so ago and loved it at first, but then I realized a few things: (1) it must be worn with tights/leggings as it is short (which kind of makes it a non-summer dress even though you’d think it’d be a great summer dress) and (2) after a couple of washes it definitely isn’t as cute as it looses its shape and fades. Just thought you’d be interested in that!

      Yes, I’m very interested in that! I love wearing leggings with dresses so it still might be a good purchase. I’m so excited for warmer temps though to wear cute dresses in the summer. I’m probably going to buy at least one when I get my tax refund, I just haven’t decided which one yet cause I like a lot of them.

      Can I ask how tall you are or if you have a long waist? Also, how did you wash it? I just love that dress and was thinking of getting it, too! So, knowing these things would be great! Thanks!

    Oh I need to check out modcloth more often, these are so cute and I never ever think to look there! Gosh I miss zumba. Must make it a priority this week to break out a dvd and get dancing!

      I recommend it! They have so many cute dresses and accessories and are always creating new looks and doing cool collaborations with bloggers and stylists and stuff. I like checking back and have a running list of dresses to buy.

    Both of the polka dot dresses are adorable – I love the halter one!!!
    Actually I like all the dresses – you need them for sure! (sorry – easy for me to say!)

    • Mary says

      February 22, 2014 at 2:46 pm

      Haha!! I wish my budget would allow all of them but alas I’ll have to pick just one to buy for now. Maybe one day they will make it all to my closet. :)

    The Like, Oh My Dot dress is amazing! I would totally wear that dress everywhere!

    I have both the soda fountain dress in grape and the hepcat dress in black, they are fantastic! :D

      February 22, 2014 at 2:47 pm

      Oh cool! I always like hearing from people that actually have the dresses I want. I know I can order and try on and return if needed if I don’t like it (haven’t done that yet!!) but it’s nice to know other people love them.

    Hi Mary!

    Wow! You did 5 types of exercise in just a week. I am so sure that with these exercises, you can really use the dresses that you love. I would say that zumba is one of the best exercises I have tried.

    Those dresses are so you!
