You glowed in the blue dress. You looked absolutely gorgeous. I liked the berry too. I real enjoy the enthusiasm you bring to every show. You always leave me smiling 😊 ❤
Hard choice!!!! I love them all!!!! My favorite is the burgundy dress. I absolutely LOVE that dress😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍!!!!!!!! The other two are tied.🌹🌹🌹🌹🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄😍😍😍😍🌺🌺🌺🌺😘😘😘😘❤❤❤💖💖💖💖🌈🌈🌈💕💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏😀😀🤗🤗🤗🤗😉😉😉😂😂😂😋😋😋💐💐💐💐🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I really agree with you on the black. I really like it, but it is shorter than I wish. I wore it to that Christmas market and kept feeling to make sure that my shapewear wasn't showing. that Red was the perfect length!
Had the gold sequin jacket in my cart. I decided to be wise and not buy something I would barely wear. BUT YOU DID THIS! 🙄😆 It has been bought. You look great in everything, but love the red sparkle the most. ♥️
Exactly!! The detail in the red dress front and back is incredibly flattering! As for the blue, it’s absolutely gorgeous but I’m not a fan of bows that tie in the back-red all the way.
You look stunning in all three dresses! Yes, the black dress is short but not too much so. If a person was subconscious about it sheer black tights would help. I am in love with that sequin jacket! The best part is how evident it is how fantastic you feel in each piece!
I have a similar blue dress I got back in 2011 from City Chic and I cut it to knee length (I am 5'6") for a function. I still have the dress and it's still amazing
I love the burgundy. It looks very pretty with your skin tone. Burgundy is just one of those colors that looks good on lots of people. I like the cut of the burgundy too. Hides what you want to hide, but still shows off your shape.
Sylvia, I agree, I think that burgundy and navy are very flattering colors. I have a few dresses that are the tulip shape, and they just do exactly what you said... help where I want help and hide what I don't!!
That blue is stunning!!!! The color and the fit, the burgundy is very nice also and probably more versatile for more fancy events because of the length but I still lean toward the blue.
I call that sapphire blue and it is gorgeous on you. The berry is stunning on you and would be perfect for holiday party. I’m not as wild about the black dress neckline is a bit matronly on you. It looks like a dress the 60+ crowd in palm beach would wear. Sparkly jacket over a black dress for New Year’s Eve party. All in all I think the berry dress is my fave on you.❤❤❤
You can tell that black dress is high quality by one feature: the beading goes all the way around the neck! Countless dresses with ornamentation only have it on the front, which immediately loses my interest. They're all gorgeous and that jacket - OMG! Love love love. My favorite videos are the ones where you wear fabulous glam dresses, but they're all great, just like you!
Blue is my favourite colour. That dress looks royal on you Meredith. Wow! I like the one you started out with as well. You have the height to wear those dresses. I don't. Love the Jayla berry dress on you as well. Lovely. Good price.I don't like the sleeves on the black dress or the length. ILOVE the bling but I don't like the high neck line. The sequin jacket would look nice with a black dress or black palozzo pants and a plain (non-printed blouse or top. You could wear a sleeveless top under this jacket; or even a camisole.
Ok. Are you asking for a vote? I vote the mulberry - it's stunning on you - I adore it. Second, the blue. The black is questionable for me because of the neckline - but that gold dress you wore for the introduction is really lovely! Happy shopping. Blazer with jeans - super fun. I dig it. Happy Parties!
Thank you so much, Kelly! I appreciate your vote! I am keeping all 4 pieces because they were all great for different reasons! That gold was a rental from Nuuly, it is by Anthropologie. I wore it twice last month and it was really such an easy dress, but also very festive!
I forgot I had this video waiting for me in the next tab, so when I closed my previous tab it started playing, and I got a sweet hit of serotonin when my immediate gut reaction was to say "OOOH PRETTY!" at you in your gorgeous starting dress. So excited to see the rest!
I remember asking you if you had Evans/City Chic a little while ago and then you started trying them not long afterwards. I got some amazing sale deals when they first took over Evans here in the UK. They sold a lot of stock for £8 each. Tops, dresses etc. I haven't bought much from them since as I have been buying most of my clothes from Monsoon. They fit me great and the quality and designs are very good. Bought a lot of their dresses and tops this year. I am selling most of my City Chic pieces as I have lost quite a bit of weight. Been dieting hard as I was very unhappy at a size 22 UK size. I am now a 20 and still shrinking. Benjamin, my Old English Sheepdog is turning out to be a lovely boy. Full of cuddles and play with no nastiness. Loved the blue maxi dress on you. So elegant. The black dress would look great with black tights and some sling backs. Take care! Meredith. Wendy
Wendy, you were the reason that I initially reached out to them, and now I am an ambassador!! (it sounds pretty fancy, but it means that I can select several pieces a month to showcase!! I'll take paid in clothing all day long!) I really appreciate your recommendation!! Congratulations on your weight loss! I understand wanting a change and am proud of you! I am between an 18 and 20 US, so probably an 22/24 UK, but am down 90 pounds - I had gotten to a size 28 and was just unhappy. I wish that Benjamin and Lulu could meet! He sounds like the sweetest! Lulu is such a lover, but boy is she rambunctious! When someone new comes over, it takes a few very long minutes for her to get control of herself!
@BigonStyle so happy you remember me Meredith. Benjamin would love Lulu. He loves all dogs but one who is as full of fun and mischief as him would be his idea of heaven. You deserve the clothes. You work hard at your content and certainly sell good clothes well. Take care. Wendy
That blue dress, from the picture I wasnt loving it, until it was on you and then I loved it. It really suits you. Sometimes a dress makes a lady look good, but this time, you made the dress look good. I do love bling, I'm a total magpie with shiny things lol Also, I had a name change, I was EnglishVirgo.xx
Thank you for telling me about your name change- I didn’t recognize your new one, I will commit it to memory! My husband always says that he is a magpie for the same reason- I just love that!! I felt the same way about the blue and know what you mean about some dresses surprising you- I love it when that happens!
Oh my girl! They all look great on you! I LOVE the red/berry one! The blue one looks stunning on you! I personally would not love strapless. The black is a little short for me….I’m 63, but I would wear it with black tights. I live in Northern Illinois, so tights or leggings are a must in the winter 🥶 I almost ordered the jacket…but, I have no NEED for a sequin jacket! 😂 Thank you for the day brightened! ❤❤❤
Thank you for the love, sweet friend! I can think of somewhere to wear each of these - I love that you almost bought the sequin jacket- but thought better of it! It doesn’t matter how cute something is, if it isn’t going to work in your life- though it could make grocery shopping more fun 🤣 Funny story, the night I filmed that, I changed my jeans to leggings and went to Jazzercise. It was so cold in the studio, so I put the sequin jacket on for half of the warm up. I finally took it off because the lights were reflecting all over the room and it was too distracting 🤣
I grew up in Winters Tx, home of the Blizzards & that blue is Blizzard blue so I am prejudiced!! But, Meredith, it was definitely my favorite & you looked awesome in it!!
I'm not a bling person but that black I can see myself wearing- if I had a holiday party this year I would seriously consider that one! Love the City Chic stuff!
Hi from Southern California. I really enjoy your enthusiasm and energy...if you were only 7" shorter or I was 7" taller. Your "short" dresses will fall below my knees! And thank you for showing us the outfits when you are sitting. So many clothes look fine when standing but are terrible when you sit down. Keep it up because we apple shaped women need your advice. Happy Holidays
They all look great. My top pick the shimmering blue gown. It's very glamorous and I love the way it flows. The black with the bling neckline is next. It reminds me of the Doris Day and Audrey Hepburn very chic. The tulip wine color dress is nice casual glam. Have a great week.❤
My favorite fashion maven has done it again what fabulous picks, my favorite is the blue wow insta 💕 jewel tones are fabulous for your skin but the gold dress is stunning on you, it’s hard to decide because all are equally beautiful. The bling jacket I love love love. Thanks again you gave me great ideas
Annemarie, you are too sweet!! I am with you on the blue! I told Ross that I want a staycation after the first, go to a really fancy restaurant- somewhere fancy enough for THAT DRESS! ❤️❤️
I love the Blue. The color is amazing and it looks amazingly hot on you. The burgundy is beautiful as well. The black is super fun. I would get some super silky sheer black stockings and a pair of black heels and really strut. I couldn’t pull it off but it is beautiful. Because I’m a paraplegic, my legs don’t stay together enough to be able to be ladylike or even decent, lol to wear a short short dress. But I have actually made an elastic band that I can put around my upper knees that can be hidden to be able to wear a knee length dress and still be a lady. I’m not truly sure what I think of the jacket. It’s pretty and if worn open it’s cute. But when fastened it’s just ok. Maybe if another fastener a little bit lower. But like you always say and now I do as well, it’s what makes YOU feel beautiful. I have taken to reminding myself that. I’m the worse at self esteem issues. In the last few years I have lost well over 100 lbs and if anything it has made me more self critical.
They all look so cute on you and I love the way you mixed fancy and casual to your Grinch party. You can do the same with your formal dresses too. I love to throw on a denim or moto jacket over formal dresses for date nights to make the look more casual. The black dress would look adorable with a denim jacket and some sneakers!
Thank you so much, Lynda! I need to declare a new dress code for every workday for the rest of the year! Formal attire for the rest of 2024! 🤣🤣. Have a lovely week!
The Jayla Berry dress is very slimming on you. The Phoenix Dress is nice but needs to be about 4 to 5 inches longer. Like the jacket but could use a size up.
I know i always complain because you don’t talk about sizes but i remembered you said your channel was about finding clothes that made you feel good about yourself and not about selling clothes so i get it!!
Oh man, I don't think that I realize that I am not talking about sizes! I will do a better job of it! I really want to make sure that if people do order clothes, that they get the right size - because we all know that there is nothing standard for us ladies!!
To begin with.. I just love watching you!!! You are so much fun! I love that good dress you are wearing!!! The cranberry dress is so pretty on you… The blue is gorgeous. The black is pretty. I LOVE the jacket!!!
Thank you so much!! That gold dress was from my Nuuly (rental service) this past month. It is by anthropologie and super festive - I only wore it out once and then to film this video, but it was remarkably comfortable! I really think that all of the city chic pieces were stand outs this time around! I hope that you have a beautiful weekend!!
You have so much fun with your fancy dresses! The jacket is holiday perfect. How wonderful to have so many events with great outfits that you can look and feel beautiful in!
Well, Ellen, I have so many more dresses than events this year! We have something to do every weekend this month, but goodness, do I have a lot of dresses! I am certainly not complaining, and I steadily find good homes for things that I do not have space for. It is funny because 3 years ago, I may get one new dress a year! TH-cam has been such a fun endeavor! I hope that you have a wonderful Christmas season! I cannot believe how close we are getting! I appreciate you so much!
You used to always say the sizes I feel like that and maybe some measurements in the description were old be so helpful! We are similar sizes. I love love the blue dress and the tulip dresses on you! I have a few tops and day dresses from there and the quality is so nice!
You are the second person to say that today! I did not even realize that I was not saying them anymore, so thank you! Everything here was a size 20, and I will get measurements in the descriptions moving forward. Thank you, Michele!
Boliver sounds like an awesome after prom location! Our school had a ‘project prom’ we went to main event and there was a fake casino, a magician, and then the bowling and rides and things. It was pretty neat!
Thank you, Helen! I love the shape of the red!! I really wish that I could grow my hair out longer, but it is cool learning that there are things out there that look natural!
Hi Meredith. That blue dress is fire! The red one is beautiful too but I felt like the proportions were off on the black dress. The jacket is so cute but I feel like it pulls a little bit in the front. Or is that the way it’s made? I’m old, I don’t keep up on styles much any more. 😊 (I turn 61 on Sunday!) Loving your Lulu 🐾🦴! All my best to your beautiful family! ❤
Happy birthday week, Dea!!! I hope that you have a wonderful one!! My dad and brother (who also happen to be my favorite co-workers!) both have birthday today!! Cheers to you, my friend!!
Blue: Always beautiful on blondes; you’re no exception. ❤ Wine: Very sexy and flattering; the color makes an impact. Black: A very unique and festive little black number! Looks good on you, too. I’d have to wear some bloomers under it. 😏
Burgundy is beautiful on you. If you like Australian Brands there's a few more you should look into, such as: Taking Shape Lulu Soul Lula Life Orientique Naudic
@@BigonStyle is good but same as you, it's either too long to too short and it's rarely just beneath the knees (Midi). They need to address that most of their dress isn't quite right in length. I have two City Chic dress that are maxi wrap dress but drag on the floor. They don't realise not all BBW are over 6" tall, which irks me to no end. One of the City Chic of the stores in Cairns, Queensland, Australia, had to close and go somewhere smaller space in another shopping centre. Here's what I got off Google about City Chic's financial woes: City Chic appears to be facing significant financial difficulties, with reports of large sales drops, inventory build-up, and a substantial loss, leading the company to sell off its US-based brand "Avenue" to raise capital and navigate a challenging economic climate; their share prices have also significantly declined. So, I stopped shopping at City Chic and looked elsewhere. Just due to my 5'3" height. I don't want to sew up every dress I get from City Chic that are too long or take out ones that are too short. If I come across some other Australian dress brands, I'll let you know ;-) Btw, I do enjoy your show. However, some sites/brands you shop at are close to Australians lol! But you have opened up others like Cider that do ship internationally. And thank you! ❤
Wow, everything looked nice. My favorite was the burgundy dress. The fit looked perfect, I loved the color, and the bodice (along with your strapless bra) gave great support, something that is often hard to come by if a woman is large on top. Trust me, I know. I also like the off-the-shoulder sleeves, which help give the appearance of having an hourglass shape to most of us who are curvy. The blue dress looked nice, fit well, but I wasn't feeling the fabric or the color. (Well, you asked for comments.) The black dress looked great but a bit short. I understand you're tall and used to that. But I'd like the dress more with some black-tinted hosiery.
I love comments that give me your honest opinion! The blue also comes in black, but the fabric would be just as shiny. It is a stretch material, and I think that stretchy shine can come off as cheap to some people (and that is ok, not the right dress for you!) I need to try the black with tights! I really appreciate you watching and sharing your opinions!! ❤️
@@BigonStyle Well, I base my opinion on whatever I see on my computer screen, which is not necessarily how a garment looks when you see it in person. I remember watching a YT video filmed by someone who appeared on Say Yes to the Dress. In her original SYttD episode, she tried on a particular bridal gown that many TV viewers thought was "the one". She did not choose that gown, however, and she received a fair bit of criticism from viewers who thought she had made a mistake. IIRC, in her follow-up video about her experience going on the show, she mentioned that although that dress looked nice on TV, _in reality_ , up close, the fabric looked cheap and the fit and feel wasn't the best. So there you go. That being said, knowing that I'm seeing these garments on a 2-dimensional screen that doesn't have perfect resolution does not seem to stop me from giving my opinion.🙂🙃
I've been shopping City Chic for years, I love them! However, it would be nice if they'd make more things for petites. I always want to try their pants/jeans but they are all way too long. Even the few short sizes they have are more of a regular length and still too long. City Chic, not everyone is nearly 6 feet tall. Us shorties want to wear your pants too. 🥺
You glowed in the blue dress. You looked absolutely gorgeous. I liked the berry too. I real enjoy the enthusiasm you bring to every show. You always leave me smiling 😊 ❤
That ruby red is STUNNING on you! And the glitter jacket is equally fantastic! My two faves for you!
Hard choice!!!! I love them all!!!! My favorite is the burgundy dress. I absolutely LOVE that dress😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍!!!!!!!! The other two are tied.🌹🌹🌹🌹🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄😍😍😍😍🌺🌺🌺🌺😘😘😘😘❤❤❤💖💖💖💖🌈🌈🌈💕💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏😀😀🤗🤗🤗🤗😉😉😉😂😂😂😋😋😋💐💐💐💐🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
It’s the most flattering. It gives you a perfect hourglass shape ⏳
Me too. My fav is the blazer. After seeing you wear it, I think I'd wear it too.
Love love love the blue dress.
out of all the pieces my fave was the burgundy tulip dress. If the black bling dress hit just at the knee it would look more comfortable to sit in.
I really agree with you on the black. I really like it, but it is shorter than I wish. I wore it to that Christmas market and kept feeling to make sure that my shapewear wasn't showing. that Red was the perfect length!
If you had a sparkly skirt you could layer over the little black dress to make it 3-4 inches longer, that would be a lot more comfortable to me.
Or a velvet skirt that’s 4-5 inches longer?
I also think the gold dress you began the video in is beautifully festive!
Had the gold sequin jacket in my cart. I decided to be wise and not buy something I would barely wear. BUT YOU DID THIS! 🙄😆 It has been bought. You look great in everything, but love the red sparkle the most. ♥️
The blue dress was my absolute favorite on you! ❤
The red dress is much more flattering than the blue one, especially when viewed from the back.
The red is my favorite on Meridith too. The blazer is next because it’s so versatile.
I didn’t notice the back until editing, I think the ruching helped a lot!
Lajuana, my only issue with the red was that I broke out in a sweat trying to zip it on! 🤣🤣 once on, it was very comfortable, though!
I thought just the opposite. The blue gave her a waist, but the red just made her look like a column or a triangle.
Exactly!! The detail in the red dress front and back is incredibly flattering!
As for the blue, it’s absolutely gorgeous but I’m not a fan of bows that tie in the back-red all the way.
You look stunning in all three dresses! Yes, the black dress is short but not too much so. If a person was subconscious about it sheer black tights would help. I am in love with that sequin jacket! The best part is how evident it is how fantastic you feel in each piece!

You make my heart smile. The blue dress is absolutely made for you - GORGEOUS!!!
Thank you so much!! This made my heart smile ❤️❤️❤️
The black dress is not too short, it is lovely! But the blue dress is breath taking!
Thank you! I really like both of them- the blue is just next level! ♥️♥️
Love City chic....so many gorgeous pieces now in Australia's summer ..
All lovely......🎄
I think that it is so neat to look at the Australian site and compare it to the US site!
They all look great! I adore the jacket!!
I like the golden one
Love them all! The sapphire blue is gorgeous! They all look stunning on you! 🎄
Thank you so much, Cheri... I think that is my overall favorite - it was just beautiful!
I forgot I had this video waiting for me in the next tab, so when I closed my previous tab it started playing, and I got a sweet hit of serotonin when my immediate gut reaction was to say "OOOH PRETTY!" at you in your gorgeous starting dress. So excited to see the rest!
I love every piece so much! Great that you've already gotten some use out of some of them :D
All gorgeous! My fav? The blue
Thank you, mine, too!
oh my goodness, that blue!!
Thank you, I love it, too!
the blue dress is my fave, but you look lovely in all of them :)
Love the black dress!
Thank you, Julie- that one is so unique!!
I remember asking you if you had Evans/City Chic a little while ago and then you started trying them not long afterwards. I got some amazing sale deals when they first took over Evans here in the UK. They sold a lot of stock for £8 each. Tops, dresses etc. I haven't bought much from them since as I have been buying most of my clothes from Monsoon. They fit me great and the quality and designs are very good. Bought a lot of their dresses and tops this year. I am selling most of my City Chic pieces as I have lost quite a bit of weight. Been dieting hard as I was very unhappy at a size 22 UK size. I am now a 20 and still shrinking. Benjamin, my Old English Sheepdog is turning out to be a lovely boy. Full of cuddles and play with no nastiness. Loved the blue maxi dress on you. So elegant. The black dress would look great with black tights and some sling backs. Take care! Meredith. Wendy
Wendy, you were the reason that I initially reached out to them, and now I am an ambassador!! (it sounds pretty fancy, but it means that I can select several pieces a month to showcase!! I'll take paid in clothing all day long!) I really appreciate your recommendation!!
Congratulations on your weight loss! I understand wanting a change and am proud of you! I am between an 18 and 20 US, so probably an 22/24 UK, but am down 90 pounds - I had gotten to a size 28 and was just unhappy.
I wish that Benjamin and Lulu could meet! He sounds like the sweetest! Lulu is such a lover, but boy is she rambunctious! When someone new comes over, it takes a few very long minutes for her to get control of herself!
@BigonStyle so happy you remember me Meredith. Benjamin would love Lulu. He loves all dogs but one who is as full of fun and mischief as him would be his idea of heaven. You deserve the clothes. You work hard at your content and certainly sell good clothes well. Take care. Wendy
I liked them all!
How can you choose. They all look great on you and the colours are just perfect.🤩
It's so hard to choose, they all make me feel so confident and festive!
You can’t go wrong with any of them! They all look great on you.
Thank you- I agree, winners all around!
That blue dress!!! 👗 Wow, great look/fit and you really lit up in it
I felt so confident in it! It is just lovely!
The blue dress is beautiful ❤️
Thank you, I totally agree!
The blue! The Blue! The blue! Stunning! PERFECT FIT!
Yes- I thought so too- and $90 is great value for an evening dress.
Yes!
That blue dress, from the picture I wasnt loving it, until it was on you and then I loved it. It really suits you. Sometimes a dress makes a lady look good, but this time, you made the dress look good.
I do love bling, I'm a total magpie with shiny things lol

Karen, I just had to look up where Winters was! I think that I need to call it blizzard blue, now!! That one was my favorite in the bunch, too!
That gold dress is amazing!!!!
thank you - that is an Anthropologie dress that I got in my last Nuuly (rental service)
The blue dress was made for you! You must keep it. The berry dress would be perfect for a holiday party, and the jacket just makes any outfit fun.
Thank you so much! My husband LOVES the blue. He loves the look of the berry, but boy did he hate helping to zip it on! 😂
Loved all the dresses. Blue was gorgeous ❤
It was my favorite too! Thank you, Lynette!
I'm not a bling person but that black I can see myself wearing- if I had a holiday party this year I would seriously consider that one! Love the City Chic stuff!
Hi from Southern California. I really enjoy your enthusiasm and energy...if you were only 7" shorter or I was 7" taller. Your "short" dresses will fall below my knees!
And thank you for showing us the outfits when you are sitting. So many clothes look fine when standing but are terrible when you sit down.
Keep it up because we apple shaped women need your advice. Happy Holidays
Everything looked amazing on you, but the black dress was my absolute fave! You look so fabulous in it!!!
Thank you- I thought that the neck was so cool on that one!!
They all look great. My top pick the shimmering blue gown. It's very glamorous and I love the way it flows. The black with the bling neckline is next. It reminds me of the Doris Day and Audrey Hepburn very chic. The tulip wine color dress is nice casual glam. Have a great week.❤
Thank you so much!! I can totally see what you are saying with the Doris Day and Audrey Hepburn reference!!
Thanks for sharing special occasion dresses. I purchased a little sparkle today at Macy's.
I love to hear that, Sylvia! I hope that you feel beautiful in it!
Beautiful blue dress

Dressing up for Cracker Barrel! I love it 😆🎅🎄
I can’t remember the last time I went to Cracker Barrel, but it felt right in the moment! ❤️🎄
That cobalt blue dress is FABULOUS ❤ both the fit and the color. Love it on you.
Thank you, Veronica! I really love that one! I cannot believe it can be washed! Easy and lovely!

They all look so cute on you and I love the way you mixed fancy and casual to your Grinch party. You can do the same with your formal dresses too. I love to throw on a denim or moto jacket over formal dresses for date nights to make the look more casual. The black dress would look adorable with a denim jacket and some sneakers!
I love the jacket with jeans but you could totally wear it with the blue dress too
Oh, I had not even considered that! I need to try it!
Love the blue dress and the berry tulip dress. The green sequins jacket how fun!
Thank you so much, Lynda! I need to declare a new dress code for every workday for the rest of the year! Formal attire for the rest of 2024! 🤣🤣. Have a lovely week!
@ I like that idea!
Beautiful!!! You look so good! I LOVE the gold dress you wear throughout. It’s STUNNING!
Thank you! I got the gold one from my last Nuuly. It is an Anthropologie dress and so festive!! Have an awesome weekend!
The Jayla Berry dress is very slimming on you. The Phoenix Dress is nice but needs to be about 4 to 5 inches longer. Like the jacket but could use a size up.
The long blue dress is stunning on you!!🥰
Thank you, Ann!!
The sequin jacket would look great with black jeans
Oh, for sure! I need to try that!
Love em all
Thank you, Mary!
OMG! Gorgeous! I love them all for different reasons. FUN FUN FUN
Thank you so much, Tamara!! I am right here with you, friend!
Ohhh - love em- agree the blue one is bestest! 😊
I just love the blue, too!! Thank you, Mary!
I know i always complain because you don’t talk about sizes but i remembered you said your channel was about finding clothes that made you feel good about yourself and not about selling clothes so i get it!!
Oh man, I don't think that I realize that I am not talking about sizes! I will do a better job of it! I really want to make sure that if people do order clothes, that they get the right size - because we all know that there is nothing standard for us ladies!!
The blue is stunning and I love the burgundy on you as well… nope… I would keep all of them!!! Well done Meredith 🎉💕🙏🎶
Susan, I normally have a few that I am sure that I don't need to keep... all or these made it to my closet 😂
The blue was STUNNING! The maroon sparkle also looks fabulous😊
Thank you so much! That blue is definitely my favorite as well- I really think that the burgundy needs a date night!!
The blue dress looked gorgeous on you.
Thank you!
That blue dress is stunning on you
Thank you, Debbie!
All of these items are gorgeous. I need more parties!
Me too, Keri!!! My dress:party ratio is high!
To begin with..
I just love watching you!!!
You are so much fun!
I love that good dress you are wearing!!!
The cranberry dress is so pretty on you…
The blue is gorgeous.
The black is pretty.
I LOVE the jacket!!!
Thank you so much!! That gold dress was from my Nuuly (rental service) this past month. It is by anthropologie and super festive - I only wore it out once and then to film this video, but it was remarkably comfortable! I really think that all of the city chic pieces were stand outs this time around! I hope that you have a beautiful weekend!!
Reckon the berry dress was hard to zip because of the material? Also that blue dress!!! It’s giving high cotton and I’m here for it!!!❤
Oh, for sure! It was a challenge to zip on the hanger. Sometimes those invisible zippers are a difficult with thicker fabrics!
I adore the blue ❤️
You have so much fun with your fancy dresses! The jacket is holiday perfect. How wonderful to have so many events with great outfits that you can look and feel beautiful in!
Well, Ellen, I have so many more dresses than events this year! We have something to do every weekend this month, but goodness, do I have a lot of dresses! I am certainly not complaining, and I steadily find good homes for things that I do not have space for. It is funny because 3 years ago, I may get one new dress a year! TH-cam has been such a fun endeavor!
I hope that you have a wonderful Christmas season! I cannot believe how close we are getting! I appreciate you so much!
Just loving your southern accent- could you please say “aaallll gussied up” in every video?
Love that you are showing us the sit down, thank you so much for that
Absolutley! I have had people ask me for a while and it is time that I get it in there!
That wig looked great. You look gorgeous in that picture!
Thank you so much Deborah!
I liked all of them! I did notice that the bling jacket highlighted the dark undertones of your hair, but maybe it's just me. I'm half awake.
You used to always say the sizes I feel like that and maybe some measurements in the description were old be so helpful! We are similar sizes. I love love the blue dress and the tulip dresses on you! I have a few tops and day dresses from there and the quality is so nice!
You are the second person to say that today! I did not even realize that I was not saying them anymore, so thank you! Everything here was a size 20, and I will get measurements in the descriptions moving forward. Thank you, Michele!
Beautiful as always. Great job !!!!
Thank you, Nelda!!
The blue looks absolutely gorgeous on you 😲
I think it's my new favorite dress! Thank you, Yvonne!!
Went to Boliver after escaping prom. First time I rode the ferry. It was lovely. Prom was….meh. But I can say I went.LoL
Boliver sounds like an awesome after prom location! Our school had a ‘project prom’ we went to main event and there was a fake casino, a magician, and then the bowling and rides and things. It was pretty neat!
@ did you ever go to Magic Island while it was still open? I remember driving on 59 past the building’s huge pharaoh head.
All the dresses are beautiful and look fantastic on you.
Thank you so much! I am so glad you liked them! Have an awesome week, Brenda!!
Looking stunning! Are you a soap opera fan, by chance? I had a small role on one years ago, played a bad boy.
I love that gold dress on you!!!! Sexy and makes you look young and feisty, but still demure enough. It’s a winner xxxx
I love that description!!! Demure and feisty all at once!
All the dresses were beautiful on you. You looked fabulous darling, just fabulous.🎉
Thank you so much, Tracey!!
I loved the red on you but they were all great. The photo of you with long hair really did have you looking like Callie Clarkson
Thank you, Helen! I love the shape of the red!! I really wish that I could grow my hair out longer, but it is cool learning that there are things out there that look natural!
Hi Meredith. That blue dress is fire! The red one is beautiful too but I felt like the proportions were off on the black dress. The jacket is so cute but I feel like it pulls a little bit in the front. Or is that the way it’s made? I’m old, I don’t keep up on styles much any more. 😊 (I turn 61 on Sunday!) Loving your Lulu 🐾🦴! All my best to your beautiful family! ❤
Happy birthday week, Dea!!! I hope that you have a wonderful one!! My dad and brother (who also happen to be my favorite co-workers!) both have birthday today!!
Cheers to you, my friend!!
@ December babies are the best! Happy Birthday to your dad and brother! Thank you for the happy birthday wishes 😊
You’re so charming there isn’t a loser among the four. Great video!
Thank you!! I totally agree on no losers here- I love when that happens!
Love the shiny gold printed dress you have on ... Where did that one come from I want to order it? Always love your videos as I only wear dresses.
Beautiful ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much!
Blue dress is wonderful. What is the fabric/care on the black dress?
Let me look, I think that was hand wash.
Hand wash • Do not bleach • Do not tumble dry• Cool iron • Do not dry clean.
Blue: Always beautiful on blondes; you’re no exception. ❤
Wine: Very sexy and flattering; the color makes an impact.
Black: A very unique and festive little black number! Looks good on you, too. I’d have to wear some bloomers under it. 😏
Going to Cracker Barrel took me out 😂😂
Hahaha!! We only ever go on road trips, but I think formal Cracker Barrel nights could become a thing 🤣
Burgundy is beautiful on you. If you like Australian Brands there's a few more you should look into, such as:
Taking Shape
Lulu Soul
Lula Life
Orientique
Naudic
I really appreciate the recommendations, I am going to look into to them! I really adore City Chic!
@@BigonStyle is good but same as you, it's either too long to too short and it's rarely just beneath the knees (Midi).
They need to address that most of their dress isn't quite right in length. I have two City Chic dress that are maxi wrap dress but drag on the floor. They don't realise not all BBW are over 6" tall, which irks me to no end.
One of the City Chic of the stores in Cairns, Queensland, Australia, had to close and go somewhere smaller space in another shopping centre. Here's what I got off Google about City Chic's financial woes:
City Chic appears to be facing significant financial difficulties, with reports of large sales drops, inventory build-up, and a substantial loss, leading the company to sell off its US-based brand "Avenue" to raise capital and navigate a challenging economic climate; their share prices have also significantly declined.
So, I stopped shopping at City Chic and looked elsewhere. Just due to my 5'3" height. I don't want to sew up every dress I get from City Chic that are too long or take out ones that are too short.
If I come across some other Australian dress brands, I'll let you know ;-)
Btw, I do enjoy your show. However, some sites/brands you shop at are close to Australians lol! But you have opened up others like Cider that do ship internationally. And thank you! ❤
Wow, everything looked nice. My favorite was the burgundy dress. The fit looked perfect, I loved the color, and the bodice (along with your strapless bra) gave great support, something that is often hard to come by if a woman is large on top. Trust me, I know. I also like the off-the-shoulder sleeves, which help give the appearance of having an hourglass shape to most of us who are curvy. The blue dress looked nice, fit well, but I wasn't feeling the fabric or the color. (Well, you asked for comments.) The black dress looked great but a bit short. I understand you're tall and used to that. But I'd like the dress more with some black-tinted hosiery.
I love comments that give me your honest opinion! The blue also comes in black, but the fabric would be just as shiny. It is a stretch material, and I think that stretchy shine can come off as cheap to some people (and that is ok, not the right dress for you!) I need to try the black with tights!
I really appreciate you watching and sharing your opinions!! ❤️
@@BigonStyle Well, I base my opinion on whatever I see on my computer screen, which is not necessarily how a garment looks when you see it in person.
I remember watching a YT video filmed by someone who appeared on Say Yes to the Dress. In her original SYttD episode, she tried on a particular bridal gown that many TV viewers thought was "the one". She did not choose that gown, however, and she received a fair bit of criticism from viewers who thought she had made a mistake. IIRC, in her follow-up video about her experience going on the show, she mentioned that although that dress looked nice on TV, _in reality_ , up close, the fabric looked cheap and the fit and feel wasn't the best. So there you go.
That being said, knowing that I'm seeing these garments on a 2-dimensional screen that doesn't have perfect resolution does not seem to stop me from giving my opinion.🙂🙃
Bah none of these are on the Aus website! they're so cute! I wear a ot of city chic on stage, mostly pimped out even more.
I have noticed a big difference between the two websites - some is by season, but a lot of the dresses should not be summer/winter specific!
I've been shopping City Chic for years, I love them! However, it would be nice if they'd make more things for petites. I always want to try their pants/jeans but they are all way too long. Even the few short sizes they have are more of a regular length and still too long. City Chic, not everyone is nearly 6 feet tall. Us shorties want to wear your pants too. 🥺
