Didn't feel I could justify it in my non imaginary lifestyle </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-742471 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 10:18:22 +0000 Deborah 742471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fair enough too Anne. But you did buy it didn't you? I can't remember </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-742445 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 07:37:49 +0000 anne 742445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to take so long getting back to you - I am away from home and computer access isn't so easy.</p> <p>Thanks for all the insights!<br /> I have moved on from this dress - more options on another thread!</p> <p>Deborah - My Mum reckoned that blue faux wrap one would be too warm (from the highneck) to go with being sleeveless</p> <p>Claire - metallic cardi could be a good idea.Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-740023 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 15:17:35 +0000 Anonymous 740023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks beautiful on you! I love the color with your skintone (it's reading a little coral on my monitor, but there is good color in your cheeks so it flatters). The ruffles add some nice dimension to the top. I like the idea of a metallic trench for a cover up, or maybe a fine gauge cardi with some lurex thread? You'd be able to get good use out of either after the wedding too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739961 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 14:34:59 +0000 LizL 739961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely colour on you, and the shape is nice, but what kind of material is that? Is it satin , because it looks a bit shiny. I would say be prepared for wrinkles if it is, I wore a dress similar to that to a wedding, and looked like a wadded up ball of tissue paper by the end! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739860 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 12:26:43 +0000 Queen Mum 739860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the shape and the color of this dress, but I'm not crazy about the ruffle around the neckline. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739804 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 08:40:08 +0000 fashionista 739804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok if you are not wearing it with boots and leggings (giving a much casual vibe), this would be perfect for the casual wedding. And yes the fit and frills are just the right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739774 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 07:42:06 +0000 Deborah 739774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anne this is a very pretty dress on you. I am wondering about that gorgeous blue Ezibuy dress with the faux wrap. Did you buy it? That is a stunning color and so elegant and modern? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739742 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 05:17:37 +0000 Kiwichik 739742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love you in red </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739715 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 04:14:53 +0000 goldenpig 739715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! You would look great in a dress like that! Hope you find something you love!</p> <p>And congrats to your brother! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739713 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 04:12:15 +0000 anne 739713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Natalie - you know what I am really wanting though - a dress like your No #1 cobalt one! I think it looks wonderful!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739707 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 04:06:36 +0000 goldenpig 739707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute--you look great in red! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739676 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 03:16:18 +0000 anne 739676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Caro and Angie. I am going shopping again this afternoon so should have more pics to show you all soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739664 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 03:02:43 +0000 Angie 739664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So far, this is a very sweet frock! But to be sure, I'd need to see it sans the boots and leggings (although I also try on dresses this way in stores :)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739650 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 02:52:00 +0000 Caro in Oz 739650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the colour on you - can't say for sure about the fit from the picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wedding-dress-try-out#post-739645 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 02:46:38 +0000 anne 739645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I posted recently that my brother is getting married in about 6 weeks in a casual backyard setting in late spring.<br /> I went looking around with mum yesterday and helped her get over her initial reluctance and she is a little further on the way to knowing what she wants.</p> <p>I only tried on a few things and this was the only one that looked any good. It is a bit too pricey for me but I guess I just wanted feedback as to whether something in this style might be worth looking at. Angie said I should go for fit and flare but I am not convinced I should restrict myself to that.</p> <p>I have decided I want short (but not too short), a party look fabric but not to OTT - something that wouldn't look out of place at a normal party. I am also keen to get some sort of coverup. Mum is keen on a white bolero for herself (I am keen to hear from Aussies who might have seen one) but I was thinking of a metallic trench or jacket for me.</p> <p>PS Obviously I wouldn't wear this with boots and leggings! </p>
