This one has really been a struggle. Hubs could tell you, I really *wanted* it to work. </p> <p>For the jacket suggestions, I realized that, if it's cool enough to wear a jacket, I have other dresses and shorts that I'd choose first. Thinking about the styling was a great exercise!</p> <p>As for wearing it as-is, Angie hit a home run in saying that it might not be my style - not much UWP about this dress, is there? And while I *still* tried to figure out an appropriate event for a sexy, casual dress... I came up short. Honestly, I'd have more use for a ball gown. :T</p> <p>SO... what do we think of hemming it up at the bottom of the last tier and turning it into a tank to wear with shorts?? It actually looks pretty good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524680 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 15:17:57 +0000 nancylee 524680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #1....and it doesn't seem too short to me, but only you know your comfort level. I say keep for those days in summer when you need something fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524676 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 15:14:29 +0000 MNsara 524676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that #1 might be a keeper - IF you're in the mood for a diff look. You DO have a great shape and youth, and you look fab in this.</p> <p>Try it with some citron? Do you have a short cardi?</p> <p>I don't recall seeing you wearing cropped leggings under anything, and this dress is navy whereas leggings as most always black.</p> <p>Gotta run. . . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524569 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 09:54:29 +0000 Deborah 524569@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 on you but I am not sure it is you. The other 2 items are not good enough for you gorgeous Rae. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524565 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 09:51:15 +0000 Kirti 524565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1! Not loving the green! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524344 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 01:30:38 +0000 Mochi 524344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually like the first one on you very much, but if you're modest you're modest. At the end of the day, you won't wear it if it makes you feel uncomfortable in any way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524330 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 01:12:27 +0000 rosee 524330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 on you -- keep it a while longer to see if you will really wear it. If you don't, then don't keep. It sure looks perty on you, miss. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524261 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 00:00:03 +0000 bella 524261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like #1 on you Rae. Try it with a jean jacket maybe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524209 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 23:31:02 +0000 Angie 524209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You totally pull off this look, Rae! The dress looks fantastic! </p> <p>But I am going to be a spanner too - is this *you*? I question the short, tight and skimpy when it comes to your style persona. </p> <p>But you could be in the mood for it, and if that's the case, my thumbs are up </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524136 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 22:45:09 +0000 rae 524136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire, it's sleeveless:<br /> <a href="http://www.target.com/p/Xhilaration-Juniors-Body-Con-Dress-Assorted-Colors/-/A-13890341" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/Xhilar.....A-13890341</a></p> <p>I'm so bad about posting links - sorry about that!</p> <p>Hm, I was not expecting to have such a positive reaction to the dress. Maybe I'll keep it around longer and see how I feel... I really thought everyone would say short, tight dresses are a no-no! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524070 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 22:00:37 +0000 mirrorlight 524070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 looks great on you, I'd keep it. In fact I may have to check our Target for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524056 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 21:48:39 +0000 Irene 524056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, I understand what you mean. I have a va va voom dres that's too sexy for a casual environment yet it's too casual for a night out. I've never worn it out of my house, not even once. It's a bodycon in a sort of camouflage green denim. I think it's supposed to look cute and relaxed, just not on my body lol People have told me it looks good on me, but maybe it looks too good for daylight. I love the striped dress on you, really, but I'm afraid you might not be wearing it in the end. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524043 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 21:36:04 +0000 Nakidra 524043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have such a great body and have youth on your side so I could see #1 working for you in a casual summer setting. Target has such great stuff lately! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-524015 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 21:16:33 +0000 sarah 524015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #1 on you! Wouldn't it be a great casual dress in the summer in hot weather? Don't you live in LA?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-523996 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 21:00:47 +0000 cciele 523996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, the dress in #1 looks like it was made for you! I think it fits really well, although it is definitely bodycon. I like the color of the green, but I like the fit of the navy/white better.</p> <p>I don't think it's too skimpy for casual going out, but it really would depend on your comfort level. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-523982 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:52:12 +0000 Meredith1953 523982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A cute bolero or shrug with #1? Isn't Herve Ledger the designer who invented the "bandage" dress? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-523964 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:34:46 +0000 Girl X 523964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, your body was built for skimpy! You could wear that dress anywhere. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-523963 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:32:54 +0000 Transcona Shannon 523963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 although it is on the short side - of course with your fantastic legs, why not? I'm not liking #2 at all I'm afraid. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-523959 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:30:21 +0000 lyn* 523959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I likey #1 too :D</p> <p>I no likey #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-523958 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:29:58 +0000 Isis 523958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first one, does it feel too short? If so, could you wear it with leggings?</p> <p>I had to look up herve leger. The target dress is 60X cheaper!</p> <p><a href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/178971" rel="nofollow">http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/178971</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-523951 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:25:20 +0000 Jewell 523951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #1 on you! If you're worried about it being too skimpy or too va va voom, you could always add a cropped jacket or cardi. In fact with a jacket in the right color and a scarf to dress up the neck line, I think it would be perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-523950 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:25:00 +0000 Anonymous 523950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IDK what herve leger is, but I think the first one looks really nice. What do the shoulders look like? Cap sleeves? Sleeveless? I likey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fyi-faux-tiered-striped-dresses-at-target-b44-ish#post-523942 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:20:12 +0000 rae 523942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm definitely not keeping the green one (too herve leger for me), and I'm probably not keeping the navy/white one, but I thought you guys would want to know, since they're only $20. Also in coral white and charcoal/black. The navy and coral versions are cotton/spandex, while the other two are poly/rayon. In the juniors section, and I have Ms on in the pics. </p> <p>Any opinions on #1? I'm leaning toward return 'cuz it seems too skimpy for casual dress and too casual for going out. I do sometimes wear shorter dresses in summer, but something about this is different. </p>
