Really need to see a picture Marlene, because these types of dresses have the tendency to cling in ways we'd prefer them not to. So let’s see it on once its cooled down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-a-sweater-dress#post-83203 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 04:50:09 +0000 Anonymous 83203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am 5'6" and it hits just above my knee. I think its at the length where I would feel comfortable wearing it with hose/boots. When I get a picture of it on my actual body, we can see if it would be too short. I am definitely not the height of a leggy model!</p> <p>I got the black version since I think it would be more wearable with the other stuff in my closet. I'm not a "green" person. </p> <p>Skinny jeans...that would work very nice! The skirt is slightly A-line so it wouldn't be as clingy on my backside. Backside clingy-ness has been a problem I have had with tunics etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-a-sweater-dress#post-83141 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 00:00:08 +0000 chewyspaghetti 83141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If it's short enough, you could pair it with skinny jeans- a turtleneck under and a blazer on top for cold weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-a-sweater-dress#post-83127 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 22:58:08 +0000 Kari 83127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marlene, I looked up the dress on Esprit's website and it's very cute. Which color did you get? I'd imagine that camis would work well underneath it, or a 3/4 length top if you are colder in the fall. I hope you'll show us how it looks on you!</p> <p>I noticed that the green-printed ress looks much shorter on the model than the black/white dress (maybe one model is taller than the other?) When you're wearing it, is the dress a length that you'd be comfortable wearing with hose/boots underneath as opposed to leggings, which are usually thicker? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-a-sweater-dress#post-83060 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 16:59:17 +0000 Anonymous 83060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just bought a sweater dress from Esprit.com <a href="http://www.espritshop.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.espritshop.com/</a> called the attractive dress with stylish zig zag pattern (ha!)</p> <p>I have wanted a zigzag pattern dress forever but now I am doubting myself...is it too young-ish for a 45 yo gal like me?</p> <p>It arrived yesterday and it is seriously too hot to try on so no pic of me modeling it. I did for a mere moment to check fit and...it fits! Nice fit on the top, cute 3/4 sleeves and it hits about an inch above my knees. The fabric is really nice. Its very low in the front so requires some sort of layer. </p> <p>It is clearly too warm to wear the dress NOW but when it cools down, I am thinking leggings and ballet flats. When full fall weather hits, black knee boots and maybe layer a long-sleeve tee under it? After this, I am stumped...how else can I style it? I'm very casual so I'm looking for casual ideas. </p>
