I think ill take the sheath and leave the sweater. I don't love it enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045073 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:32:14 +0000 K. Period. 1045073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Liz, I'm an IT, so sensitive to the disproportion. &nbsp;I wonder if the picture you just posted isn't just distorted because of where you took it. &nbsp;Sure, you have strong shoulders. They aren't off in the first picture. I think especially if you'd wear lighter colored leggings under the sweater dress or lighter tall boots, no one would look at you and think your shoulders were too wide. &nbsp;With that said, accents on the shoulders can be tricky. &nbsp;(But I'm an IT who doesn't really care that much that I'm an IT. I like my strong shoulders most of the time. Maybe my opinion is skewed.)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> <p>ETA: They both look very nice to me. &nbsp;I'd buy them for work in a heartbeat. Dresses make it so much easier to get out the door in the morning.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045070 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:29:22 +0000 Liz A. 1045070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks K. No need to choose. I would like to wear them to work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045068 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:27:33 +0000 Liz A. 1045068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also pictured fab new shoe purchase from dsw. Do my shoulders look huge? IT tendencies here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045066 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:25:03 +0000 K. Period. 1045066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They both look lovely to me. &nbsp;Do you have to choose? Could you buy both? Do they work for what you need dresses for? The panel dress is gorgeous. Sweater dresses are so easy to wear with boots for the winter. Both seem like good options if there isn't any particular need driving the purchase. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045063 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:20:04 +0000 Suz 1045063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It might be an easy fix in the bodice. Especially if there is stretch. Or sometimes just pulling the shoulder seam up will do it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045059 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:18:47 +0000 Liz A. 1045059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sort of in love with #1. It's a bit loose in the bodice but a size down is too tight for work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045053 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:16:32 +0000 ClaraT 1045053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fit on both looks good. I especially like the sheath dress (the leather panels are really on trend I think), but the other may be a good every day one. The thing about a black sweater dress is that if it were me, I'd be likely to wear it when it is cold, which means black boots, which means a lot of black. But styling isn't my strong suit so there may be better options.<br />I vote buy&nbsp;both (depending on your wardrobe needs, of course). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045049 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:14:38 +0000 Liz A. 1045049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both pass the sit test! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045046 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:14:05 +0000 Anonymous 1045046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I like 1 better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045045 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:13:10 +0000 Suz 1045045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the neckline of #1 on you if you are going to be wearing your hair back or up. Both look potentially good. Did you try a sit test?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-dressing-room#post-1045043 Fri, 04 Oct 2013 21:11:22 +0000 Liz A. 1045043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Should I buy either dress?</p> <p>Grey with black faux leather panel sheath </p> <p>Sweater dress</p> <p>Please excuse dressing room hair. Thanks! </p>
