Orange-ish Red

Two things.

1. Evan Rachel Wood doesn't look good as a blonde. Wrong colouring. I tried this when I was a teenager. She should go back to being a redhead.




2. This dress isn't nearly as flattering as I thought it would be. Bummer, since I bought it online from the States so an exchange is not really worth the hassle.

1. i totally agree, i love her as a redhead (or as her natural brunette!).

2. bummer! that bodice looks like it would be uber flattering on anyone! can you shorten/simple alter it to make it better?

I thought it was fail safe as well, but the wrap comes up higher than the image (unless I fidget with it for ages), making it more of an empire-maternity dress. If I lengthen the wrap pieces and increase the number of times it goes around my waist, I could lower the waist line visually, which is more flattering. The material is fantastic though, it will travel really well.
