Sharon: How do I look?
Eli: Very Good. I must say, I'm amazed!
Sharon: I am a very stylish girl. :)
I found this dress last weekend during our impromptu thrifting adventure. It seems to have been a "sample dress" by a sample maker named Martha. The tag says it was made on 12/08/09 for a Summer 2010 line. I wonder if I'll ever run into Martha. Maybe she'll recognize the dress she made.
And the best thing about this dress, besides the fact that I scored it for a mere $5, is that it's really two dresses in one. I can sport it either forward and backward. I like it better backwards.
Which way do you like it?
{dress - Thrift, 1st pair of shoes - Dollhouse, 2nd pair - Jeffrey Campbell}
(forward) (backward)
...and for answering that simple question, ONE lucky winner will win this set of four Audrey Hepburn glass coasters. Every Stylish Girl needs to have a set of stylish coasters to place her drink on.

The first style is more elegant but the 2nd style is good for casual nights out!

Sharon! That dress is amazing! I love all the treasures you can find while thrifting lol :) I love the dress forward...It looks GREAT in you!!
besos and have a great weekend!

I also like it both ways! I think they serve different purposes. Frontwards is more elegant and sophisticated and backwards is more casual. I can imagine the frontwards with some colorful pumps for a night out. And backwards with a jean jacket and some flats for a weekend shopping day! jajaja, well that was a longer comment than I should have written. Well anyway, both ways look great!

That dress is kind of awesome, and I like it both ways, but think it looks a little best worn forward with the ruching detail.

It looks nice both ways, but I prefer forward a tad more :)
*please don't include this entry as I'm not joining your giveaway*
Wow, what a great find! I think it looks amazing both ways, but the backwards way is really cute.
Thanks for your sweet comment about the Project, and to answer your question, I do plan on doing a huge collage in the next couple of days :)
I really like the dress forward. Love those coasters!! And you know I'm a follower :)

I like it 'backwards' the v looks amazing!! And loove those shoes you have on with it!!!
I feel like the 'forwards' way would be better in the day time and the 'backwards' way would be better in the evening!!!

First of all, I love the dress. You look great! I personally like it both ways. If I had to choose, I'd say forward because I like the detail and the high neck.
Lovely giveaway! Audrey Hepburn is such an icon. I'm a follower of your blog, of course :) xo
First of all, thanks for the sweet comment! :)
Second of all, WHAT A FIND!!! 5$ and two in one, and it totally looks like a designer dress... I have to say I prefer it worn backwards, but I may be a bit biased because I am drooling over your gladiator Jeff Campbell heels as I type. And may I just say what gorgeous hair you have!!! I cut mine super short last year and it's slowly growing back... you make me want to have long hair again!!!!
PS: YOU LIVE IN HAWAII!!!!!!!!!!! That is the coolest thing ever. Seriously. My grandpa studied at Uni of Hawaii when he was young and he said he just loved it there.

Personally I like both ways a lot, it just depends on where you're going. Worn backwards, it's a more casual look, and it's beautiful. But I also really like it forwards for a more dressy look and a nice night out. Great catch for $5!
oh man... $5!?? that's 2.50 per side. :) i like the dress backward with the dollhouse shoes!
Wow, you look FANTASTIC! I love the dress backwards.

the dress is presh both ways... but to pick one i'd go with forward. i love that neckline. gorgeous!
Deep V, definitely! Also, those shoes rock! Gorgeous, what a find!
Also, I'm a new follower! Cheers!
You are so creative for thinking of wearing the dress backward! Love it!
Great dress Sharon! Wow! $5 bucks? What a score!
It's funny because I'd normally choose the backward version, but I think the forward version really suits you well!

I like it backwards. Looks so chic and ladylike you could say it looks "audreyesque"!
And here I am a follower now. Not just for the extra entry (though I am obsessed with Audrey!) but hey, your blog is fantastic!!!
Also, I may blog about this. I will let you know if I do. Because I am obsessed with Audrey so I may. But at the same time, that would probably mean more people would enter, and then I would be less likely to win. And I am greedy, so I may not. ;-)

WOW! I need to go thrifting with you! You always find the best stuff! That's SOO neat that the dress can be worn two ways... I wish everything could be like that, LOL! Hmmm.. maybe I should make clothes that can always be worn forward and backwards and sell them on etsy, tee hee! Ok I digressed... I love both ways but I think I like backwards more!
both ways look adorable but if i had to choose i would probably go with forward. you definitely scored big time girl! 5 bucks? i don't think i've come across a find like that yet!
yes, i did enjoy my sunday. it's now over and tomorrow is the start of a new week. hope your sunday is going loveLee!

Hi! I came across your blog from another's when I saw your comment and that you signed off with Love and Aloha :o) I always sign off with Blessings & Aloha!
It is so neat to find another from Hawaii...actually, all my hubby's family are from Hawaii...he is 4th generation born Portuguese from the Big Island. I am catching up on some blog reading, but will be back again :o)
Blessings & Aloha!
(what a great purchase! I do like it forward, but you look great with it both ways.)
hi friend!
i like it both ways, but since you want one answer, i would have to say forward!!
jozpascual(at)hotmail.com
follower OF COURSE!
Tough call. I say you look equally cute in both pics :^)
I think it looks fantastic both ways! I know, I know, I'm no help. But if I had to choose, I'd personally wear it backward - only because I think it'd look fab with a statement necklace!
And I should be ashamed of myself - I thought I was already a follower, but I wasn't! I fixed that though! :-)
Hmmm... it's cool both ways but i think i prefer it forward.
Thanks for visiting my blog!

loving them both x
Ooh! I love that dress and what a steal! I like it both ways, but backwards looks more comfy and casual, and forwards looks a little dressier!

The V neck is the best look. Definitely. I love it. It elongates your neck and lengthens your body, which makes you look slim and sleek and svelte the way you truly are! It's also sexier.

Aloha love! If I HAD to choose I would say forward, but really it looks great both ways...great find!
I hope I'm not too late to enter this fabulous giveaway! I need Audrey in my life! :D

2. On you, I like the dress worn forward. It exudes sex appeal even though the front part is covered. Subtle sexiness is the best :) Also, I think it looks like a goddess dress when it's worn forward. or is it just me?? :p
3. Of course I'm a follower :)
4. Uh oh, I think I'm too late to do this :(

I like the dress worn backwards. The v-neck really elongates your neck and makes you look taller.
Fabulous giveaway, my love! You know I'm a follower!! :)
OK, I haven't blogged about it, yet, but I will be this afternoon after work.
ohhh fab dress sweetie! i like it backwards x

Love it backward. Makes you look longer and taller; as all v-necks to :)

Love it the second way. So edgy and sexy. Love those caged sandals!
I prefer it backwards! Please enter me i love audrey!

I like it better backwards, mostly because it shows more neck area. One of my favourite qualities in clothes.
