What does everyone think of this dress?  It's $159 using the code, is it worth it?

Beautiful, yes.  Worth it?  I don't know.  I wouldn't pay a whole lot for cotton (that's what it looks like).  What is the material?

I like the dress, but I'm not sold on $159. It's too plain and I feel like there's similar out there for less.

I agree. But it depends on your budget. If it fits you well and $150 isn't a big deal for you, go for it!

I agree with the others.  While it's a beautiful dress, I wouldn't pay $160 for it.  Also I have a feeling this will end up on sale in the not-so-distant future.  Also, my Nordstrom Rack had a ton of 12th street stuff the last time I was there so it might even end up there eventually.  HTH.

Thanks girls for all the input.  I decided to just go ahead and order the dress and see what it's like IRL and make my decision from there.  I have an engagement party coming up that I think this dress would be prefect for, plus I already have shoes and jewelry to match, so if I do decide to keep the dress it's not like I don't have anywhere to wear it and I wouldn't have to buy anything else to go with it(yes, I'm justifying). 


Collette - It's funny, I loved the Alice & Trixie dress you wore to your wedding shower and when I first saw this dress your dress came to mind.  The cut is sort of similar.


Vanessa - I'm so jealous you have a Nordstrom Rack, I don't.  When I used to live in Baltimore, MD we had one, which I visited frequently, and so many of my favorite shoes are from there.  In fact, about once a week I think about how my shoe collection is "suffering" due to the fact I don't have access to NR.
