Go with your flow. Grow into your own flow. YLF that dress is bad meaning good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662330 Mon, 16 May 2016 22:20:06 +0000 JAileen 1662330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kellygirl, thanks!</p> <p>Angie, thanks! I knew what you meant! :)</p> <p>Xtabay, thanks! I guess we have come to that. When the woman retired from her professional job, she gave away everything except jeans and sneakers. She's a wonderful person, volunteering at the food bank, caring for her grandchildren, deacon of the church. It does seem funny that she wears the same thing for all of those actvities, plus memorial services. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662324 Mon, 16 May 2016 22:09:55 +0000 kellygirl 1662324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Terrific choice. The dress is beautiful<br /> On you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662312 Mon, 16 May 2016 21:33:20 +0000 Angie 1662312@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You accessorized the look beautifully, JAileen. A Killer outfit - and I mean that respectfully describing your look for a memorial service.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662311 Mon, 16 May 2016 21:20:05 +0000 Anonymous 1662311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks extra-great with the bear necklace and the blue bag.&nbsp; Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but jeans and sneakers just don't seem apropos for a funeral.&nbsp; Have we really gotten that casual? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662281 Mon, 16 May 2016 20:16:47 +0000 JAileen 1662281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all. I felt appropriate and respectful. I accessorized with a silver bear pendant and blue shoulder bag. Before the service I was talking to several ladies from church that I know. They loved my dress, and afterwards, as I walked to my car, a woman complimented me on my shoes (Steve Madden Nstop). So, YLF has definitely improved my style. However, this town is not very dressy, and I could have worn anything. I sat next to a woman in blue jeans and tennis shoes. </p> <p>BTW, I learned how to lighten my photos from Chris' thread on selfies. So I hope you can see better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662206 Mon, 16 May 2016 17:40:03 +0000 Anonymous 1662206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very appropriate, well chosen.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662175 Mon, 16 May 2016 16:30:17 +0000 Suz 1662175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress looks wonderful on you and I think this is peaceful and appropriate.

I just attended a memorial service last Friday, and people were dressed in pants, skirts, and dresses in all shapes and forms, with mostly subdued colors like gray and black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662160 Mon, 16 May 2016 16:02:55 +0000 Toban 1662160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes. It looks comfortable and suitably subdued. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662157 Mon, 16 May 2016 15:45:11 +0000 Elizabeth P 1662157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think so... I would certainly consider wearing it if I had it!&nbsp; </p> <p>FWIW I wore my Vince lemming dress to a funeral a couple of weeks ago.&nbsp; (I have the navy version) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-memorial-service-would-this-be-appropriate#post-1662154 Mon, 16 May 2016 15:42:36 +0000 JAileen 1662154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to a memorial service this morning. I was not really close to the lady, but she was very nice. She was in our ballroom dance class. I have this EF dress. Would it be appropriate?</p> <p>ETA: see end for my final outfit. </p>
