I'm sure you can find better dress than this, but if you like this dress so much, maybe you can buy it or... find another one that's similar and way cheaper?

me either - I assume you can look around - maybe find something similar elsewhere - Do you have a reason for buying it?

you're the only one who knows how you feel and it is completely up to you but i will mention i bought a similar dress (same hemline and cut but different neckline) at a yard sale only it was in shades of blue with bits of purple and maybe green in it... and it was only $0.75.... i only wore it 3 times and then i sold it for $0.50...
you really should check out the thrift stores as i've seen some great stuff there.... my SIL bought one of the neatest dresses i've seen there for $10...

Nope, Cache has some really nice stuff but I would not pay $100.00. Wait until it's marked down

But it is GORGEOUS! I might spend $100 on it if I had a really special occasion to wear it...high school reunion, major birthday...something like that.

I once really wanted a suede jacket that I saw in a store window. I saved up for 6 weeks, went back, tried it on and it looked awful on me. I was disappointed and happy at the same time.

I don't spend 100 dollars a year on clothes total much less for one purchase. I admit I am a SAHM and if I was in the business world I might pay more but then again a few standards items a year and mix and match would be my style. for dressy or formal I would keep a couple basics and accessorize.
