GOT ONE- THANKS! Did you ever buy a dress with sleeves to wear to a wedding?

What'd it look like, and where'd you get it please?
(ESPECIALLY if it was recently!)

I have a wedding on Saturday night, and all of my dresses are sleeveless. Besides the fact that it's flipping freezing out, I'm just not very happy with how big and white my arms are.

I guess I'm looking for something with a 3/4 sleeve....maybe a black wrap dress?

Thanks Chat Icon

eta: I have to go TODAY because I'm working 12 hours tomorrow....

Any suggestions? Has anyone seen anything in their travels?

Thanks Chat Icon

I would see nice dresses with sleeves but then I would end up buying sleeveless. All my dresses are sleeveless.

You'll probably have better luck at Walt Whitman. THey have an L&T there too and they always have tons of dresses. Got to Wow Coupons

There are always coupons for L&T there.

I'm going to try Smithaven first, because there's no NY&Co in Whitman, and I have a return there anyway.

Re: Did you ever buy a dress with sleeves to wear to a wedding?

my favorite dress to wear to weddings is one with long sleeves. it's an old jones NY brown and black a-line cocktail type dress. it's not constricting (allowing me to dance no problem) and it's the only thing that really flattering on me! Chat Icon

to "dress is up" a bit i either whip out clunky jewelry or wear a silky scarf Chat Icon

The Kenneth Cole dress is $129 online....so, with the 15% coupon....not that bad. Maybe it'll be on sale at the store (wishful thinking) Chat Icon

I am biased but I am totally in love with all wrap/sweater dresses. Love the style of them.

How about this one from J Crew? It comes in black as well.

I do too.....but one definitely has to have a certain taste in clothing to pull it off. It's a very fun and flirty dress.....I think Shorty could definitely flaunt her stuff in this dress!!
