Electronics department here I come.<br /><br />Wasn't sure what a maxi-dress was until Sarah and Venus clarified with their descriptions. Just what I need at 5'1" NOT. I tried one on back in my early 20's, that was enough for me.<br /><br />I hate shopping for bras because I never know what size I'm going to need. My weight bounces up and down enough that I never seem to have a bra that fits even though I think I've gotten quite good at getting the right size at the time of purchase. A few months back I purchased two new bras, they fit great...at the time. I've lost weight since. I'll just wait it out, winter will come and the darn things will fit again. That is, they'll fit nicely as long as I don't gain ALL the weight back.</p> I have found retail therapy to be quite enjoyable when it does NOT include clothing. Electronics department here I come.

Wasn’t sure what a maxi-dress was until Sarah and Venus clarified with their descriptions. Just what I need at 5’1″ NOT. I tried one on back in my early 20′s, that was enough for me.

I wore one to a wedding last Friday night and was told repeatedly how flattering it was. I think it depends on the dress. </p> I have to disagree about the maxi dress being universally unflattering.

Seems like there's been a shift or something, and I like it. Keep up the great posts!</p> I must say, these last few posts were really quite good, and witty, and readable and fun.

Psst - the babydoll was always the proper choice for girls with slimmer arms and legs and more 'robust' torso. </p> so true abuot the maxi dress but why can’t we bring back the long bias cut skirt? so comfy, casual for office. flattering to all but those who like the maki dress for it’s suppossed (sack like) camoflage of lumpy middle section.
