The monkey skirt was too tight in a size 6 (WAY TOO TIGHT!) so I'd recommend sizing up, especially if you're curvy. Hope that helps!amy kelindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01518780485099674457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3778711128619908261.post-39417832450907870062010-03-26T01:57:06.052-05:002010-03-26T01:57:06.052-05:00Love the turtle dress on you. so cute!

Maybe it's a matter of sizing up then? I don't know where it would be appropriate to wear the skirt either. It's super cute for sure, but for that price, I want more versatility!<br /><br />Pamela - You're welcome! I also love the idea of being able to wear a normal tank under the dress. I think it also has those snap buttons underneath the straps to keep bra straps in place, if I'm not mistaken.<br /><br />Tara B - Thanks! Turtle dress will be mine when it goes on sale, haha! I'll definitely bust out the heels more often if I get it! And don't give up hope on the Simian Tableau skirt yet! Tien said it worked on her, so maybe if you size up, it'll fit!<br /><br />e - Thanks! The top is definitely girly (I mean, pink? Floaty layers? All super girly, haha!) but it can be "toned down" with a structured blazer. And the monkey print would be so cute as a scarf, haha!amy kelindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01518780485099674457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3778711128619908261.post-63963168990653835792010-03-08T22:32:19.012-06:002010-03-08T22:32:19.012-06:00The dress is great on you--that color is amazing. ...The dress is great on you--that color is amazing.

You look adorable in it!!! Thanks for the scoop on the Simian Tableau skirt, what a disappointment- I have a pretty prominent butt, so I guess this is gonna be a no-go for me :( Too bad, the print looks so amazing in your pics!Tara B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14678793599079636954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3778711128619908261.post-26614935926826788022010-03-08T14:21:04.041-06:002010-03-08T14:21:04.041-06:00I love the dress and tank!!!

If it's deeply discounted, it might find it's way into my closet.<br /><br />Even though you say it's too tight, I think it looks good and accentuates your curves well.Tienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12751589705234621798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3778711128619908261.post-53816529788834675442010-03-08T13:12:31.806-06:002010-03-08T13:12:31.806-06:00Rosemary - Ah yes, the curse of the junk in the tr...Rosemary - Ah yes, the curse of the junk in the trunk. Sometimes it's a blessing, and sometimes not. If you do give it a shot, try sizing up - that may help!

As for the Circle Adornments tank, the material isn't sheer. The tiers themselves are suuuuper sheer, but it's tacked on top of a good jersey material so you don't have to worry about it being see-through. The top ivory part is see-through only at the topmost bit, but it's not any more revealing than a scoopneck top. I hope that helps!<br /><br />goldenmeans - Yay, I'm glad you're giving the Arribada dress a second look! I didn't realize it was a turtle print when I saw it online, either, so seeing it in the store was a pleasant surprise! I didn't realize that Leifsdottir had a habit of running small, especially since the honeyed peplum skirt fit me just fine. Weird! And while the Simian Tableau skirt is kooky, I bet there are ladies (like you!) who will look super fabulous in it!amy kelindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01518780485099674457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3778711128619908261.post-18688241912172728762010-03-08T13:11:18.482-06:002010-03-08T13:11:18.482-06:00Hello cuteness!

I am a sucker for anything animal-printed, and this dress is too precious. Adding to wishlist! :)<br /><br />I kind of like the print of the Simian Tableau Skirt against my better judgement! And yes, all Leifsdottir skirts run small on me too, it's unfortunate!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3778711128619908261.post-89724966580614139382010-03-08T13:03:45.067-06:002010-03-08T13:03:45.067-06:00I think the Arribada dress looks great on you, Amy...I think the Arribada dress looks great on you, Amy. Some kick-butt heels, a new belt and I think you would be ready for a night on the town!<br /><br />Thanks for reviewing the Circle Adornments tank, I was thinking of ordering it online as I haven't had to chance to make it to a store lately. Is the material sheer at all? I was concerned about the top ivory part being see-through. It looks great on you too!Lisa - respect the shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17271991199812031360noreply@blogger.com
