You can wear something else to get to the venue and change shoes there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296308 Wed, 14 Dec 2022 14:40:22 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2296308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks April. I should’ve been more clear:<br /> No footwear at my parents house on Christmas when they will wear jeans &amp; I’ll wear new Esprit viscose skirt &amp; purple velour top.<br /> Cream dress, red skirt, green jacket outfit will now be worn to their 60th wedding anniversary at an Inn with a dressier dress code, and shoes will be required. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296296 Wed, 14 Dec 2022 13:38:36 +0000 April 2296296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I say whichever top you choose, definitely coordinate the color with the shoes.</p> <p>To people who find your footwear inappropriate when you're in a skirt and they are in jeans, I say "Mind your own business."&nbsp; But I know families can be thorny; you're wise to pave a path of least criticism. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296227 Tue, 13 Dec 2022 23:41:47 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2296227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I’ll go with the red ones. I think my parents would find the stompy white ones offensive/inappropriate.</p> <p>Thanks Rachylou! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296224 Tue, 13 Dec 2022 23:27:17 +0000 Angie 2296224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Stag</b>, try your red and white boots with outfit #4. See which you like more.</p> <p><b>Zaeobi,</b> never too many pearls.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296219 Tue, 13 Dec 2022 23:06:26 +0000 rachylou 2296219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>4, no question in my mind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296164 Tue, 13 Dec 2022 14:02:27 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2296164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zaoebi, indeed! </p> <p>There’s been a change in venue for this outfit. My parents’ house is warm, so I’ll wear the viscose skirt and purple velour top for Christmas Day. The red and cream outfit will be for their 60th wedding anniversary dinner a couple days later. I’ll add the new green jacket in case the restaurant is chilly, but what shoes? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296150 Tue, 13 Dec 2022 12:11:03 +0000 Zaeobi 2296150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chuckling @ Angie's response - there's no such thing as 'too many' pearls, is there? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296146 Tue, 13 Dec 2022 11:41:25 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2296146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That color combo…</p> <p>Angie, I’m sure you looked awesome. Here’s another version, from one of those brands I keep meaning to get. </p> <p>Cee, mike drop for closet play? Wow.</p> <p>Thank Sal. </p> <p>JP, don’t know how many more christmases we get, so we plan to enjoy it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296110 Tue, 13 Dec 2022 02:00:02 +0000 Sally 2296110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for pics 3 and 4.

Is it comfortable enough to wear a short dress under the skirt? I always feel bunchy if I try to layer bottom layers, but maybe that’s just me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296073 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 19:02:50 +0000 Anonymous 2296073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for the lace dress and skirt outfit! So pretty </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296069 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 18:29:53 +0000 Angie 2296069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Stag</b>, I do, and have worn the combination I've shown recently with the fluffy cream jumper and a pile of pearls! I will do the blouse version when it's warmer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296065 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 18:03:17 +0000 Kate 2296065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely #4.

Your vote brings it to an even tie.</p> <p>Woah, Donna F slid in there while I was typing and now the dress pulls ahead. I have never, ever worn the dress on its own. I’ll have to try it on in a bit to see if it’s as short as I’m thinking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296060 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 17:51:58 +0000 DonnaF 2296060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress “top”. Will you have other occasions to wear it just as a dress? I am all about wanting to pack light. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296058 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 17:49:59 +0000 Angie 2296058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a spanner!</p> <p>I much prefer the cream top and dress with the new cherry skirt if you wear light hosiery and footwear! I vote #4.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296015 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 13:39:21 +0000 Dee 2296015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like the black lace top combo as well, but I would likely wear it untucked if it’s not too long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296004 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 13:19:47 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2296004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s a run off between the dress and the black top!<br /> We will be with my family in Ohio. The weather outside will be chilly, but the house will be around 70.<br /> Thanks, everybody, for jumping right in with comments. I’m not panicking quite yet, but really appreciate the clear thinking help </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2296000 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 13:10:13 +0000 Sisi 2296000@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p># 4. The lace pattern vaguely reminds me of snowflakes ... Oh, wait, you live in Florida right? No snowflakes there I guess. Anyway,&nbsp; it's my favourite.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2295997 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 13:01:52 +0000 Anonymous 2295997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for the black top! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2295995 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 13:00:14 +0000 Zaeobi 2295995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #4 - feels a bit more dressed up than #3 without going all out (since you said your family will be on the more casual side). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2295990 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 12:10:20 +0000 Star (Lise) 2295990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3 or 4 for Christmas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/christmas-is-coming#post-2295988 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 12:02:52 +0000 bella 2295988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the black top.
