Perfect.<br />It is perfect for a concert, perfect for a class, and even great to wear during the day!!!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1613196 Mon, 08 Feb 2016 18:09:26 +0000 NauticalVulpine 1613196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This can be dressed up or played down. I think a scarf and a pair of boots would be just fine for a day dress. I also love the idea of using denim with this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1613105 Mon, 08 Feb 2016 14:52:08 +0000 Ginger 1613105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wore skirts mostly when I was at college, at that was some years ago before skirts and dresses came back into fashion. Sometimes I would get comments, but my friends and classmates quickly got used to the way I dressed. This is a great dress, with a lot of potential for either dressing up for dressing down. Footwear (and legwear) can make a big difference in how casual is can look. Go you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1613046 Mon, 08 Feb 2016 09:34:00 +0000 ALeigh 1613046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know that feeling - it's been only a month since I started wearing skirts and dresses again, and everything I look at seems so fancy! Or girly or sexy. </p> <p>But I do like this one. I think it'd be a great staple for layering with, you could really go anywhere with it depending on what you add. Jewelry+heels = dinnerware. Sleevless vest + booties = datewear . Parka+hat = day wear.</p> <p>I feel like this dress needs to go in my wishlist </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612804 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 20:56:54 +0000 unfrumped 1612804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks versatike and easy yo style different ways!<br /> Ways to dress down are to add warmer neutrals like gray ribbed tights, brown or cognac leather boots in more casual style than a dressy black boot; denim jacket idea is great, or a puffer vest, wooly cardigan, even a plaid shirt! Distressed leather handbag or backpack. All of those items read as not precious, more cozy and sporty. Then you can flip it and wear it with more refined footwear, polished accessories for going out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612728 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 18:45:31 +0000 Anonymous 1612728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like a great casual dress. You could definitely put a denim jacket over it. A casual scarf thrown around your neck too. Another topper choice like an olive cotton parka would dress it down nicely. You could even try leggings under it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612678 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 17:15:40 +0000 Anonymous 1612678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To some people, any dress seems dressy. Please yourself. Denim dresses down everything. Boots or booties or maybe even sneakers. The sleeves look to me to be the most dressy part, but covered with a jacket or cardigan,they won't show. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612624 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 15:39:51 +0000 sammtay 1612624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's quite varied, you have people in sweatpants, jeans, dresses, blouses and blazers.... I myself wear dresses sometimes, I'm just not good at evaluating the type of dress and which occasions is ok to wear it, and this one suddenly just seems too dressy for day wear. <br />Yeah, there are people that wonder why am I wearing a dress "Are you doing something special later?", somehow this garment for most people is associated with dressing up, when I think it's just quite comfortable, way more than a pair of jeans... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612594 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 14:21:44 +0000 Liz 1612594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you on a leggings-and-yoga-pants campus? Or a somewhat more dressed up one? If your campus is really dressed down, you may just need to plan to feel a little awkward wearing a dress until you get used to it.</p> <p>&nbsp; And know you're going to get some comments and be prepared for them: "You're wearing a dress!" "I know, isn't it great!"&nbsp;<br />"You're so dressed up!" "Thanks for noticing!"<br />"Why are you so dressed up?" "I felt like it!"&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612529 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 07:45:03 +0000 rachylou 1612529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a fantastic dress. I think it will be versatile, dress it up or down. Too nice, of course, to paint walls in, but other than that... !! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612421 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 00:32:07 +0000 sammtay 1612421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh cool, I like these responses! I guess I'm still getting used to wearing dresses, and in my head black goes straight into night time...</p> <p>It's actually not jersey, it's heavier, the fabric looks almost like suit fabric, is also what makes me a bit reluctant (I'm not great with fabrics xD ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612420 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 00:27:40 +0000 Anonymous 1612420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a really nice casual day dress to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612418 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 00:26:35 +0000 El Cee 1612418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a very pretty day dress to me. Have you tried wearing it over skinny jeans or leggings? I do this quite often when going for a more casual look. I also like the idea of wearing it with a denim jacket and boots.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612416 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 00:23:07 +0000 MsMaven 1612416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a day dress to me as well. Lace for day has been around at least a couple of years. The dress is covered up and the style seems relaxed and casual to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612415 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 00:18:50 +0000 Tanya 1612415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like casual day dress to me, it is jersey, right? Not a dressy dress by any means.&nbsp; I would definitely wear it for regular non-dressy activities, including going to college.&nbsp; If you wear a little denim jacket over it that would dress it down more and cover the lace, if that detail makes it look dressy to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612414 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 00:18:26 +0000 crazyone 1612414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think it's too dressy--pair with it a slouchy cardigan and some boots and I think you'll be good to go for an ordinary day of college! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help---is-it-too-dressy#post-1612412 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 00:15:02 +0000 sammtay 1612412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi! I bought the dress in the link below and now I don't now how to wear it. Now it just seems too dressy for everything... First it looked like I would be &nbsp;able to wear it even on a normal day to go to college, now I think it's too dressy for even a concert. I'd hate to have it sit in my wardrobe forever, i like the dress, I'm just not sure how/where to dress it.<br />Any guidance would be appreciated: Is it too dressy for a day dress? Where would you wear it?</p> <p>Thank you so much! </p> </p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.zara.com/us/en/sale/woman/dresses/lace-appliqu%C3%A9-dress-c437631p3013507.html">http://www.zara.com/us/en/sale.....13507.html</a></p>
