I bought this dress on super sale because it has several metal bead-things that are coming off on the front, but it'd be very easy to fix. Should I bother, or donate? It's one piece.
If it were mine, I'd cut the top part off and use the bottom part as a skirt, as someone suggested. I like the concept here, but the top part has too much detailing, and it'd be much more flattering if it was a natural waistline rather than empire.
I think Donate. This has several issues besides the beads. Too much detailing, too close together, and the skirt is too short. Overall, it looks too small on you. You have a great figure, but this is really not doing anything for you.
Pull the skirt down 2-3 inches (thought you night need to get it hemmed). Also, the neckline of the top competes with the waistband. A tucked in button down in white or black (rolled sleeves) would make this look fresh.
For some reason, the top and bottom don't look like they go together to me. I don't think the top is flattering on you - it makes your shoulders look broad. I would donate it.
Is this two pieces or one? I don't like where the waist hits you (too high). However, you could potentially cut off the top and use the bottom as a casual skirt.
