I may have to go look at that one in the store. </p> <p>Day Vies - thank you for reminding me about chunky shoes/boots. I will have to take that into account.</p> <p>Diana - that's another look that's pretty cool. I just wish I had the legs to carry off those short dresses. </p> <p>Karie - Would you believe the 80s are considered vintage now? Ugh! And I was a teen then. like the way they styled that dress so am definitely interested. Thanks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-needed---mod-new-years-eve-outing#post-803145 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 19:07:53 +0000 Karie 803145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this one - I think it is the same dress that Diana posted above, just styled differently. </p> <p><a href="http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/rachel-roy-mini-mod-dress?ID=646218&#038;cm_mmc=Google_PLA-_-main-_-21882504424-_-mkwid_21882504424&#038;gclid=CPrAx8vfuLQCFQWe4AodgjQAzg" rel="nofollow">http://www1.bloomingdales.com/.....4AodgjQAzg</a></p> <p>I think of mod differently than vintage - when I think of mod dresses, I think of more of a '60s vibe with geometric patterns and A line shapes, but when I think of vintage, I think of lace and frills, and styles that have more of a 1920's vibe.</p> <p>So I guess I'm not too sure about what look you're after, but if it's a mod - 60's look, I would go with an A line dress, tights and boots or booties. Have at least one of those elements in a fun, bright color and you'll be the fashion hit of the party! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-needed---mod-new-years-eve-outing#post-803105 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 17:08:35 +0000 Diana 803105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://piperlime.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=426913&#038;locale=en_US&#038;kwid=1&#038;sem=false&#038;sdReferer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dmod%2Bdress%2Bboots%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dsafari%26tbo%3Dd%26source%3Dlnms%26tbm%3Disch%26sa%3DX%26ei%3D0C3bUIbZA5HviQKchIHwDw%26ved%3D0CAkQ_AUoAQ%26biw%3D1024%26bih%3D672" rel="nofollow">http://piperlime.gap.com/brows.....6bih%3D672</a><br /> Something lik this? I like how the yellow one is styled with booties for a modern look. For a more mod costume, I'd go with taller boots to get a go go boot vibe, and colored tights.</p> <p>Or something like my mod dress here, which has a slightly psychedelic looking pattern but not a super 60s shape, which is harder to wear IMO.<br /> <a href="http://diana.lookfab.com/post/wiw-052412---dressed-down-mod" rel="nofollow">http://diana.lookfab.com/post/.....d-down-mod</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-needed---mod-new-years-eve-outing#post-803092 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 16:38:12 +0000 Day Vies 803092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say if you have a black dress similar to the J.Crew dress above then you could add super opaque tights and accessories in 1 really bright color -- (fuchsia, lemon yellow, emerald green, white, cobalt -- you get the idea). Finish off with a patent chunky heel (low or high), a structured bag, a skinny belt or a huge statement necklace (not sure how long or short your torso is (if it's long do both). Hope that helps! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-needed---mod-new-years-eve-outing#post-803044 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 15:29:48 +0000 Anonymous 803044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zara had a couple of mod dresses I liked.<br /> What about this one, is that mod???<br /> <a href="http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/us/en/zara-us-W2012-s/317506/984522/MILITARY%20STYLE%20DRESS" rel="nofollow">http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs.....LE%20DRESS</a><br /> or this one:<br /> <a href="http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/us/en/zara-us-W2012-s/317506/907052/JEWEL%20PRINT%20DRESS" rel="nofollow">http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs.....NT%20DRESS</a><br /> and I might get this one:<br /> <a href="http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/us/en/zara-us-W2012-s/317506/955508/LACE%20DRESS" rel="nofollow">http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs.....CE%20DRESS</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-needed---mod-new-years-eve-outing#post-803041 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 15:25:04 +0000 citygirldc 803041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While I love that jcrew dress, I think I may lean a little bit more vintage-y.

Since I wear a lot of casual but modern vintage-y looking outfits, I wanted a more of an evening look.</p> <p>Any suggestions? Any websites you can steer me to? Photos? All opinions are appreciated. </p>
