I just wanted to compliment you on your hair, beautiful beautiful cut and looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-accessory-question-for-dress#post-18471 Sat, 02 Aug 2008 14:21:15 +0000 gwenn 18471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much everyone for the great comments! </p> <p>Angie, the dress is Anne Klein from a department store (don't remember which) from about 4 years ago. I love the idea of boots and tights and will rock that in the fall/winter, but right now it is about 94 degrees here in Virginia, so I will have to wait on that.</p> <p>I have put a few things together and will post the pic tonight!</p> <p>Thanks again!<br /> Gwenn </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-accessory-question-for-dress#post-18385 Sat, 02 Aug 2008 01:44:36 +0000 Kyle 18385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would consider a really oversize pair of hoop earrings to capture the 60s vibe. Could totally see that with a pair of go go boots as Angie mentions. Fishnets could also be quite fun. Love the dress. Love it. Looks great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-accessory-question-for-dress#post-18358 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 21:07:47 +0000 Becky 18358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome, Gwenn!

Very 60's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-accessory-question-for-dress#post-18277 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 17:21:46 +0000 Angie 18277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Gwenn. BEAUTIFUL dress! I want that dress. Where is it from? Love your hair and welcome to the forum. </p> <p> I see the roaring 20’s and the 60’s. Long pearl inspired necklace and cream go go boots. That’s how I’d wear that dress.</p> <p> The gals make great suggestions. Take your pick. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-accessory-question-for-dress#post-18259 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 16:25:34 +0000 Nicole 18259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Gwen, love your hair!</p> <p>That dress looks great on you, but it needs some color. Are you married to those shoes? Changing the shoes to something that pops would be a pretty simple way to bring in some color.</p> <p>I like the idea of a long necklace, maybe silver? That would go with your mod 60's theme. Or how about a scarf knotted close to the neck? Or instead of a necklace, how about a chain belt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-accessory-question-for-dress#post-18240 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 15:21:24 +0000 Ana 18240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness, Dani!

I like your hair a lot. I like the idea of a long pendant necklace, and I can't wait to hear what the others suggest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-accessory-question-for-dress#post-18186 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 13:02:50 +0000 Sihaya 18186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gwenn: firstly thanks for posting. You look lovely in the dress. One idea: how about wearing it with the belt that Ana had on with her navy dress. Look for the posting where she's most recently posted pictures of her for a while week. The flower should evoke the 60's and the color will contrast nicely with your dress. Not sure how it woud look till you try it on but it could be very powerful if it goes well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-accessory-question-for-dress#post-18177 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 11:59:48 +0000 Anonymous 18177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about a long chain necklace with an interesting pendant? I was in college in the late 60's and had a roommate who wore a jade Budda pendant with dresses like this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-post-accessory-question-for-dress#post-18172 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 10:45:30 +0000 gwenn 18172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>This is my first post and question. I have been reading the blog for the last 6 months or so and hope you can help me. </p> <p>I plan on wearing the black dress in this photo and wanted some ideas on accessories to jazz it up. It is difficult to make out the details in the photo, but it is a black, slightly drop waist, 60's style dress. The skirt has 2 very large pleats on each side. I am interested in possibly playing up the 60's vibe, but am open to whatever anyone thinks.</p> <p>Thanks so much!<br /> Gwenn</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/29164372@N04/2721511501/in/set-72157606480537488/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/2.....480537488/</a> </p>
