I would try bright navy or silver gray tights and shoes with it.&nbsp;</p> <p>My second choice is the Kourtni.&nbsp;</p> <p>I was crazy about the JCrew dress until I saw how low it's cut in front. Why do designers so often do that with cute wrap style dresses?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744554 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 18:17:11 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1744554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the red Kourtni dress (I posted WIW earlier this month with it <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-wiw-1">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....hday-wiw-1</a>) and I really like it. Well suited to a rectangle shape, as is probably the other DVF one you posted.</p> <p>I will say I have been admiring Tibi's color palette this year. Orange does not really suit me but I think it does you, with the dress you posted. They also have this marmalade satin dress and skirt that are so beautiful. &lt;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.tibi.com/shop/amoret-satin-bias-dress">http://www.tibi.com/shop/amoret-satin-bias-dress</a>&gt; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744540 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 17:56:35 +0000 Janet 1744540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #2 for you, and #1 is a close second.&nbsp;</p> <p>What about something like these with the orange dress:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/pretty-polly-metallic-sheer-tights/4114821?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;fashioncolor=BLACK">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/pr.....sonalizeds</a> </p> </p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/via-spiga-shimmer-tights/4393976?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;fashioncolor=BLACK%20W%2F%20GOLD">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/vi.....rt&#038;fa</a></p> <p></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/lemon-seychelle-tweed-tights/4406492?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;fashioncolor=PEPPERCORN">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/le.....rt&#038;am</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744534 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 17:51:02 +0000 bj1111 1744534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/oroblu-hosiery-shapewear">oroblu at nordies</a>&nbsp;--lots of pattern choices. &nbsp;also like nude, burgundy, or navy. </p> <p>or chocolate or cognac knee high boots, in which case, the color of hose/tights is less relevant</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744532 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 17:47:28 +0000 AviaMariah 1744532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chocolate brown tights? &nbsp;Or maybe something with a subtle pattern. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744524 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 17:40:40 +0000 Sal 1744524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also love the orange - and the leopard. I would think nude- over winter one of my friends wore soft grey leggings with sparkle, in a stocking fabrication.

Which shoes/boots were you thinking of wearing for the dinner? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744486 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 15:52:48 +0000 catgirl 1744486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Aubrey and the DVF!

Happy birthday dress shopping.&nbsp;</p> <p>How about a nude for you hose with it (perhaps even fishnet)? Could also do a sheer navy or gray tone, but I like that dress standing as much on its own as climate allows.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744449 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:19:22 +0000 viva 1744449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone -- and thank you <b>Tanya</b> for that picture! The JCrew dress would definitely not work for me. You are so right!</p> <p>So, lots of love for the orange Tibi, which I can get for 15% off from the Tibi site. If I do go that route, <b>what color tights can I wear to avoid a halloween effect??? (The dress also comes in navy, which is safer, but I love the orange.)</b></p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744447 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:17:31 +0000 Angie 1744447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744445 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:13:13 +0000 Anonymous 1744445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I especially like 1 and 2, which could also be worn as tunics.

I think it is also versatile. Can't tell about length til you try it on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744440 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:05:47 +0000 texstyle 1744440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really prefer #1 or #2 for the shape and color I think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744438 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:01:45 +0000 Tanya 1744438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All gorgeous, and I vote for #1 or #2.  Btw, I tried the J Crew cherry dress in #5, which is stunning and I love it, but it suits a very hourglas-sy figure and it is cut quite low, which if I remember correctly I do not think are your preferences. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744437 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 14:00:55 +0000 Gail 1744437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 or 2 . 1 is my first choice .</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744433 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:49:27 +0000 Colette 1744433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love dress shopping! My favorites are 1, 2, 4. But the detail and color on 2 makes it my favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744430 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:44:15 +0000 viva 1744430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sara - I really appreciate your explanation. I'm actually a hot color person myself, primarily, so am more drawn to the orange and pinks. But I do like the turquoise stripe, in particular, of 4. I'm just a little worried about the wide gathered band at the waist/hip. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744428 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:41:14 +0000 Sara L. 1744428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer #1, 2, and 4.&nbsp; I don't particularly like the print in #3 but prints are very subjective.&nbsp; I really like the shape and design of #2 but not the color so much, but again colors are subjective and if you love orange, than go for it.&nbsp; I much prefer the cool colors of #4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744427 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:41:05 +0000 anne 1744427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 or 2 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744424 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:37:41 +0000 RobinF 1744424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Me too! 1 and 2 are my favorites although I do like the floaty-ness of the others. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744423 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:26:34 +0000 chewyspaghetti 1744423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the leopard! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/birthday-dinner-dress#post-1744420 Wed, 26 Oct 2016 13:18:57 +0000 viva 1744420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Finally heading out for a belated birthday dinner in a couple of weeks with some friends, and I may get a new dress for the outing.
