I want your outfit :)</p> <p>This is the one to get in a PETITE. Has a little stretch for comfort too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2024141 Fri, 03 May 2019 12:22:20 +0000 RobinF 2024141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these! The dress is beautiful and perfect for a wedding. I like the skirt the second way you styled it with the white top (picturing a shorter denim jacket). With the tucked vs. untucked, my vote is tucked. I think the waistband of the skirt looks so elegant showing and your waist is tiny, might as well show it off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2024129 Fri, 03 May 2019 11:42:48 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 2024129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YOU TOTALLY KILLED IT WITH THIS CAPSULE!!!</p> <p>Your DH has a great eye. I’m glad he encouraged you to get the skirt, and I’m glad you got the top. </p> <p>Tuck vs. untucked...I think they both look great, but I love tucked on you. It highlights your tiny waist. It doesn’t look widening to me.</p> <p>And can we talk about how amazing that black dress is on you? Like it was custom-made for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2024077 Fri, 03 May 2019 03:15:13 +0000 anne 2024077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely items. I think the skirt is better untucked as the white waistband has a widening effect. Or with another top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023980 Thu, 02 May 2019 19:10:52 +0000 Bonnie 2023980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Cat: What a nice compliment. Thank you.</p> <p>fifthandfinest: Thank you. I picked the dress, I hope it works as an aunt of the groom dress.</p> <p>Brooklyn: Thank you. After a bit of a search I finally found a dress that works and DH found a skirt he likes for me.</p> <p>Liesbeth: Thank you. I've ordered three from Nordstroms and one from Banana Republic so hopefully one of them works.</p> <p>lyn67: Thank you. DH likes the black top but I think it will be useful to have a casual version with a white top and denim jacket for casual wear.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023867 Thu, 02 May 2019 13:53:47 +0000 lyn67 2023867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, beautiful party items!!! The floaty eliptical sleeves and the tulle outer layer on the skirt left me speechless! DH(and you, too-of course) are a pro!:-) I would buy a short white denim jacket asap for the skirt, but may work for the dress, too! Oh and only see now in the comments it has a top, too!!! Gorgeous!</p> <p>ETA If the top is too tight, I love the skirt with the white top better for dressy, but for a more casual look love the look of a black top too!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023792 Thu, 02 May 2019 07:25:17 +0000 Liesbeth 2023792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marvelous dress, and such a fun skirt.<br />Seconding the denim jacket: either blue or white/cream. It may be a good time to shop for a short one: I'm seeing lots of extra cropped versions in store, so maybe those will work for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023780 Thu, 02 May 2019 04:52:43 +0000 Brooklyn 2023780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is spectacular on you Bonnie.

It will be a challenge to find a short jacket fro my short waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023642 Wed, 01 May 2019 15:37:47 +0000 Bonnie 2023642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>shevia &amp; rachylou: Thank you.&nbsp;</p> <p>Angie: I'm definitely going to try your suggestion of tee, denim jacket, and sneaks for the skirt. I need to look for a short denim jacket since my old one got lost in the recent move.</p> <p>JAileen: Thank you. That's a good observation. I knew the black sweater didn't look right but didn't know why.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023632 Wed, 01 May 2019 15:11:00 +0000 JAileen 2023632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the dress on you. It’s perfect. I also like the skirt with the matching top. Can you find a sweater that is lighter in color? It seems like the overlay lightens the colors, and the black seems too dark to me. I love the shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023621 Wed, 01 May 2019 14:28:17 +0000 Angie 2023621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab shoes, <b>bonnie. </b>You can wear the skirt and top to a wedding too.&nbsp;</p> <p>Style the skirt with a tee, denim jacket and sneaks!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023573 Wed, 01 May 2019 08:30:32 +0000 rachylou 2023573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow!

I'm planning to wear the dress to the wedding in August and the skirt outfit is just for fun. Brilliant idea to throw a denim jacket over it. The shoes are Fly London and super comfortable. The wedding is taking place in a county venue so I think they may be a good choice.</p> <p>Marilyn: Thank you. I did find these outfits in the store but you can order them online, too. They were having great sales when I went shopping. I never really bought anything at WHBM either until this month. Like Angie says, "leave no stone unturned."</p> <p>suntiger: The matching top makes a great outfit. I returned it though, because it felt tight on the chest. A shrug is a good idea.</p> <p>Barbara Diane: Thank you.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023520 Wed, 01 May 2019 00:04:05 +0000 Barbara Diane 2023520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023518 Wed, 01 May 2019 00:01:56 +0000 Anonymous 2023518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it with the matching top the most too!

I did order the sleeveless top and really liked the look but I knew I would get cold and didn't want to fuss with a wrap and wearing the black topper with the dress doesn't work.</p> <p>Cardiff girl: Thank you and great advice. Maybe a ballet style cardigan would work - I hadn't thought of that.&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023495 Tue, 30 Apr 2019 22:09:02 +0000 Cardiff girl 2023495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice buys!The dress is lovely on you and the skirt is very pretty.l would like to see the skirt styled with a short ballet style cardigan in a pale colour or a cropped cardi in a pale colour that complemented the skirt.l think that the waistline needs to be shown on these full midi skirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023485 Tue, 30 Apr 2019 21:36:39 +0000 Mainelady 2023485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>100% fab and lovely! The dress is gorgeous on you and I can see why your husband really liked the skirt. It is beautiful! I like the cardi tucked best. I was going to suggest a sleeveless tucked shirt. You mentioned that you get cold. Would a shawl work? I think the skirt with a slim fit sleeveless top would be a stunning silhouette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023480 Tue, 30 Apr 2019 21:23:25 +0000 Bonnie 2023480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>suntiger: Thanks. The sweater is very nice and I'm planning to wear it with jeans, too.</p> <p>nemosmom: I really like the skirt, too. It has a matching top but it's sleeveless and my arms get cold easily so I passed on it.</p> <p>Lesly: Thank you. I'm leaning towards untucking, too, for the very reasons you mention.</p> <p>Sterling: Thank you. I tried 3 dresses from Boden and 3 dresses from Nordstroms before I finally decided I'd better go to a BM store. All of the dresses I ordered were midi which made me look dumpy. I think midi length looks better on a willowy figure which I definitely don't have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023479 Tue, 30 Apr 2019 21:18:15 +0000 Jenn 2023479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are wonderful on you!

Despite often tucking myself, I like that sweater untucked. It's a good length and it makes the look very easy-breezy (but so fun and unexpected for a formal occasion!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/april-shopping-challenge-party-capsule#post-2023466 Tue, 30 Apr 2019 20:34:21 +0000 nemosmom 2023466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a super-cute skirt!!!
