I went to Saks this morning with my Mom and found this dress! It was originally $290 and I got it for $100. I have jewelry, shoes, and shawl to go with it already so I'm all set. What do you think?

Do you like the shawl to the side like this?

Or centered like this.....

Very pretty dress. Love the color!

I say centered.

I love the dress it fits you perfect... but... I... HATE the shawl IMO, it looks like a knit and it dresses down the look.

Thanks for all the compliments ladies!!! I found a scarf that I have that matches.......I'll take pics of that and see if we like it better than the shawl. I'm just the kind of girl who's always cold so with the party in two weeks, I'll be an icicle without anything.....until I'm dancing at least

I totally appreciate the honesty......I just don't know how to stay warm......

To be honest, I'm not a big fan of the shawl it reminds me of something Granny would wear. I'm sorry! I think the dress is gorgeous by itself, if its cold I would just wear one of those pashmina shawl/wrap you can get in the city for like $5. JMO

that dress looks hot on you.....actually, you make the dress look hot not loving the shawl, but I do like it better centered

The dress is definitely more flattering without the shawl b/c you are nice and slim. But I would probably be cold b/c I always am so I would personally wear the shawl in the center.

I agree, I love those pashmina wraps - you can either get a cashmere one or maybe even one with a pattern that ties in the color of the dress
