Thanks, though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1873294 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 06:19:43 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1873294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe I just think of it as conventional because it was my school colors. Then again, I can think of lots of professional sports teams that have those colors as well. Either way, you’d look stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1873288 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 05:44:37 +0000 Zaeobi 1873288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@FashIntern really? Yellow &amp; blue is more conventional? I thought pink &amp; orange would be more conventional with yellow since they're closer on the colour wheel (&amp; traditionally more 'warm' colours, though I wouldn't wear them too warm toned here). I guess it's all relative, lol!</p> <p>@Emily K I guess bateau would just be the French way of saying it, lol! Yes, I like the way it's a very classic, fitted style but slightly updated with the neckline &amp; sleeve length. The train might be tricky though - guess my fairy godmother will have to order some Disney animals to pick up the hem for me as I walk, lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1873286 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 05:38:54 +0000 Emily K 1873286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think "boatneck" gives a good description of the neckline on Emma's dress. &nbsp;Or, maybe "batteau". &nbsp;It's a pretty dress and would be stunning in a range of bright colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1873285 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 05:35:17 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1873285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To my mind, the yellow and blue is a more conventional pairing than the pink and orange, so I like the latter group of pictures. Hope you’re enjoying your “new” hair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1873284 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 05:25:07 +0000 Zaeobi 1873284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Joy thanks but I was referring to the neckline on Emma Watson's dress [photo #1 not #2]. Maybe I wasn't clear enough, lol sorry - edited for clarity </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1872993 Sat, 30 Dec 2017 06:04:58 +0000 Anonymous 1872993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful and bold. I'd call the neckline assymetrical , but definitely not boatneck, Jewel or slash. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1872979 Sat, 30 Dec 2017 04:44:28 +0000 Zaeobi 1872979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks - bold colours will always be a part of me, lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1872931 Sat, 30 Dec 2017 01:01:42 +0000 Katerina 1872931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely dresses! Perfect accessories, this will be so beautiful no matter which you choose. Yellow dress with 6-9 would be my favorite. Fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1872830 Fri, 29 Dec 2017 19:57:33 +0000 rachylou 1872830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love! Yes to bold contrasting accessories! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashionably-late-to-the-ylf-ball-2#post-1872788 Fri, 29 Dec 2017 17:57:49 +0000 Zaeobi 1872788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>[[Photos #1 &amp; #2 // The dress]]<br /> My dress for the YLF Ball doesn't technically exist yet, lol - I'd love to wear a yellow version of the fitted, boatneck, Oscar de la Renta gown that Emma Watson wore in 2014. So [photo #1]'s style but in [photo #2]'s colour, if that makes sense? </p> <p>[[Photos #3-#6 // Look #1]]<br /> If I'm feeling bold, I'd like to group the yellow with contrasting, colourful accessories in cobalt blue &amp; deep pink, with turquoise &amp; stark white/ silver as the bridging neutral. </p> <p>[[Photos #8-#12 // Look #2]]<br /> If I'm feeling a little less out there (but still can't give colour up completely, lol), I'd pair the dress with orange &amp; deep pink instead. Maybe more suitable for an evening affair, anyway? </p> <p>[[Photo #13]]<br /> What do you think? Does that give you all a better idea of what I'd wear if I had no constraints? (Of course, my fairy godmother would make me able to walk in heels, and to give my short natural curls that 'perfectly coiffed without being crunchy', 1950s romantic look that I'm currently still trying (but failing) to emulate, haha!) </p> <p>[[PS: - ]]<br /> Also, is 'boatneck' the correct term for the neckline in photo #1? Or is it a jewel/ slash neckline? Thanks! </p>
