Glad you wore it!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-132003 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 00:49:40 +0000 Kristine 132003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can understand how you feel, but I don't think this dress is too short. And trust me, I'm a giant prude and very sensitive to skirt length. I sometimes feel strange in fishnets too, but microfishnets are subtle. You look classy and ladylike. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131973 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 23:17:29 +0000 Queen Mum 131973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>no, I added black hose underneath the fishnets. I'll get up the nerve next time I don't know why it's such a hang up for me.<br /> well, actually I do.... years ago a comment was made about a dress I had on that was on the short side. It wasn't actually a bad comment, but inappropriately made by a member of the opposite sex. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131968 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 23:11:07 +0000 Beth 131968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Then you are good to go! I hope you wore it just as in the picture:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131967 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 23:10:16 +0000 Queen Mum 131967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beth- over half the church is in denim so I wasn't worried about that at all. Once the weather warms up we'll see shorts in church- especially the men. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131955 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 22:58:44 +0000 Beth 131955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely, positively love this look:)</p> <p>That said, while I'd go with the fishnets for church, I'd leave the denim at home. Of course, it depends very much on your church:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131952 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 22:55:01 +0000 Queen Mum 131952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ooh, split review- I love it!<br /> you know, it would have been fine as it was, but I was glad to have added the sheer tights layer underneath as this dress doesn't pull over my knees when I sit. I would have been tugging all morning. I think I also would have been fine with it if the boots were a bit taller, but I just felt a bit self conscious about my knees and pretty much my whole calf showing in the fishnets. I decided I'd err on the side of modesty rather than pushing the line in the name of trying to look fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131945 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 22:40:25 +0000 carissa 131945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely! You'd fit right in at our church. I love the big print, looks great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131944 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 22:36:56 +0000 Tricia 131944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it. We're not church-goers but I guess it all depends on how conservative your church is - regular hose or leggings/flats would look fine too.</p> <p>(Fellow English major here - I had the knee-jerk Alfred J. Prufrock reaction, too! Love that poem.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131936 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 22:01:24 +0000 Kristine 131936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great!! I think it would be fine for church, but only you know what your church is like. You look sophisticated and modern, not cheap in the least! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131933 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 21:49:59 +0000 LoP 131933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know about the church-appropriateness, but this is a killer look on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131911 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 19:43:23 +0000 Susan 131911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My family goes to a pretty relaxed church, and this type of outfit would totally work there. I actually think black and brown can work really well together (neutrals are neutrals and they can be mixed up. Brown and grey work beautifully together, so why not brown and black?) I am curious to see what the black plus fishnets, plus brown boots will look like.<br /> Sorry that you didn't wear this to church, but why not wear this outfit to go the grocery store, for a parent teacher conference, for a casual get together, for any reason! Why need a "special" reason to look lovely? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131909 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 19:28:06 +0000 Maya 131909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not a church-goer so I'll defer that to those who are more knowledgeable. I just wanted to say I love, love, love this outfit! One of my favorites on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131900 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 18:31:25 +0000 Michelle 131900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shana, we must be fellow literary nerds, because my kneejerk reaction was "to eat a peach." :)<br /> Sorry Kim, just had to interject. I'm sure you looked both polished and appropriate in whatever outfit you chose to wear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131896 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 18:01:23 +0000 shana 131896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>disturb the universe??? Sorry, my knee jerk T.S. Eliot reaction to the title of your post.</p> <p>I have a hard time mixing black and brown and seeing Angie do this has opened up a whole world of possibilities. I think I'm having a harder time with such a dressy looking dress and that particular denim jacket (so not a dressier dark denim one). Less so with the boots or the fishnets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131893 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 17:43:46 +0000 Louise 131893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've always been a bit iffy with mixing black and brown i always feel it doesn't work (i'm in the minority with that opinion and i am trying to see the good in black and brown) However i do think yours works perhaps it's because they are fishnet tights not solid black? x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131891 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 17:35:36 +0000 Queen Mum 131891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>okay, so I tried some other options- one of which was my black boots which were fine, but I am just so intrigued by the idea of my brown boots with this. Something I would have never ever ever done before I found YLF.</p> <p>So, I compromised and added somewhat sheer black hose under the fishnets. It's not nearly as good of a bridge between the black band and the brown boots, but I decided I was pushing the alluring factor just a bit too far.</p> <p>:-( I'm really sad because I was really stoked about my outfit.</p> <p>Angie- I'm curious what you think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-dare#post-131884 Sun, 07 Mar 2010 16:58:55 +0000 marianna 131884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't really advise on church wear as I've never been but this is a FAB MOTG outfit!
