If you feel your legs are short, I think you have successfully tricked my eye, because the proportions of this outfit are fantastic. I love the print and colors of the dress and how they play with the pattern and color of the shoes and bag. And your background is stunning, too. Happy anniversary! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city/page/2#post-1947214 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 03:30:55 +0000 Jaime 1947214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous picture and outfit.

I am though, very used to long flights. It's a way of life, and I've been doing it since I was a baby - (altijd in het buitenland gewoond). Still HALF the flying time to South Africa from Seattle when we see Greg's family. Those flights are <i>hectic.&nbsp;<br /></i><br />I schooled in the British system in Hong Kong so my accent is English despite having parents with thick Dutch accents. I am though completely fluent in Dutch. It's a mother tongue. Learned it before English. Never spoke to my parents in anything but Dutch.&nbsp;</p> <p>I hope to meet you one day too :)</p> <p>The gentle fit &amp; flare should also have a bit of length. That will help you feel streamlined on the leg.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946880 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 20:59:08 +0000 Katerina 1946880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So nice to see you Adriana! What a beautiful dress! I also like Marimekko. I love it with the sandals and the fabulous bag, you look wonderful in this outfit. Happy anniversary! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946854 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 19:22:12 +0000 Adriana 1946854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cardiff girl thank you.</p> <p>Anchie: that bag gave me new colors. I always wore a lot of black. But that is changed. With lots of gray in my hair and now with some fun bags.<br /> I am now the owner of purple and pink shoes (bought last week) and some pink tops. It don't want an exact match.</p> <p>Angie: again such a long flight. I noticed of course that you visit Velp a lot. I hope we can meet one day.<br /> Gentle fit and flare, will look for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946840 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:33:46 +0000 Angie 1946840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, <b>Adriana</b>. How fabulous! I will be in Velp on Wednesday to visit with Papa for a week. I do that 3 to 4 times a year now. He doesn’t travel to us anymore. 86 years old. </p> <p>I think a gentle fit &amp; flare can work in a midi length. Make you feel more streamlined. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946836 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 18:16:17 +0000 anchie 1946836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress, and would like to steal your bag - this colors will work with my wardrobe too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946823 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 17:21:45 +0000 Adriana 1946823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz: thanks and also for posting many outfits. I learned a lot from you too.<br /> Fun that you worked with Finnish brands. It can be a bit shapeless sometimes but I love the look. There have been times in my life I didn't have the confidence to wear that colorfull stuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946819 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 17:15:48 +0000 Cardiff girl 1946819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab outfit,good on you for posting it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946818 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 17:14:27 +0000 Adriana 1946818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie yes.

My dress style till now is straight, a-line or sack dress.</p> <p>Like the season thank you.</p> <p>Knitting gene: you got that right. I also found it hard to change my profilepic from flower to face. Ha ha. </p> <p>Lyn67: I love patterns. The building behind me is hotel New York. </p> <p>Jenn: it did work out fine, although these shoes are 6 years old. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946816 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 16:59:15 +0000 Suz 1946816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific! I love the pattern on the dress and the fun bag. And a very happy anniversary! </p> <p>Marimekko is a favourite of mine. I used to work for a boutique where we sold Marimekko and Vuokko and a few other Finnish designs. Fabulous clothes!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946809 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 16:45:56 +0000 Like the Season 1946809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that dress!

I’m so glad you posted - very cute outfit. You look fab. I, too, have mostly dark shoes and have had to work on bringing in lighter ones to minimize contrast with my very pale, very short (but lovable!) legs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946797 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 16:07:07 +0000 lyn67 1946797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, what an interesting pattern on the dress, the greens match the tower clock above there!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946791 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 15:11:48 +0000 Angie 1946791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good grief. Are you Dutch? You live in Nederland </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946790 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 15:10:38 +0000 Angie 1946790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awwww, <b>Adriana.</b> How sweet are you. (((HUGS))). Thanks for the support.&nbsp;</p> <p>Don't give up on fit &amp; flares yet - keep on trying. I'm not curvy and wear them well. So does <b>Suz</b> and so do very straight clients.&nbsp; </p> <p>Happy Anniversary!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946788 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 15:07:03 +0000 Jenn 1946788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit! I love the look of lighter strappy shoes with that sort of dress...and the brown brings out the brown tones in the dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946783 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 14:35:59 +0000 Adriana 1946783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, you are the best teacher. I follow your website since 2014. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946782 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 14:33:10 +0000 Adriana 1946782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Becky. I have proportionally short legs, and want to learn how to trick the eye a bit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946767 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 14:11:40 +0000 Angie 1946767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FABULOUS. Fun pattern mix, and good job shopping your closet for orphans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-wiw-summer-in-the-city#post-1946762 Fri, 10 Aug 2018 14:06:03 +0000 Becky 1946762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress. I can see why you might gravitate toward darker shoes, as they would bookend your hair well. These are a nice choice for warmer weather/a lighter look. </p>
