The hem is a bit higher than I realized, and with the flirtiness of the lace overlay, I think heels would have been too much.</p> <p>I also realized that I should have worn a much shorter cardigan. Because of the higher almost princess waistline and the bubble effect of the skirt, it looks shapeless and odd from the back. Lesson learned! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423204 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 17:20:26 +0000 trekkiegirl 1423204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much! I like to have a touch of vintage or punk in every outfit, so when I can do both I'm super happy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423187 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 16:38:26 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1423187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This outfit is lovely on you, and your hair is so gorgeous. I like the way the shoes dress down the look, and they have a subtle echo to your necklace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423186 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 16:38:07 +0000 deb 1423186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423182 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 16:29:45 +0000 Angie 1423182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Astrid said, tr3KK. Hope that makes sense.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423175 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 15:55:18 +0000 Astrid 1423175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That the color of the cardigan is low contrast to your dress. So a dark blue or grey cardigan... Or another medium dark neutral or color.&nbsp; </p> <p>I personally purged all but one black cropped cardigan, because I much prefer to throw my BF cardigan on even with my skirts and dresses. I prefer the relaxed look and it also looks more modern to me. </p> <p>And I love the dress on you, btw. I also like the hair!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423172 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 15:49:48 +0000 trekkiegirl 1423172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do you mean by low contrast? I love that outfit of yours!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423170 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 15:44:29 +0000 Angie 1423170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A&nbsp;lighter weight longer cardi is a good idea with the dress. The combination is more current. Low contrast would probably look more chic, although that's not essential.&nbsp;</p> <p>I wear light footwear with dark hose a lot. This was my 2014 holiday outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423168 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 15:41:11 +0000 trekkiegirl 1423168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie!! Someone mentioned yesterday, when I was debating how to style this, that you had written a similar dress. That post have me a bit more confidence to wear the dark tights with lighter shoes!</p> <p>Hmm, never considered a long cardigan. The dress has some volume in the skirt, almost a bubble effect, so I would imagine a cardi would need to be lighter weight? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423155 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 15:24:33 +0000 Angie 1423155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are creative with your hair. Cute Retro frock. Would be nice with a long and roomy fashionable cardigan. Nice to see flats with your dress too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ink-blue-lace-overlay-dress-with-a-twist#post-1423142 Mon, 12 Jan 2015 15:02:10 +0000 trekkiegirl 1423142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wearing the dress with navy tights, pink cardigan, and I chose my cognac Oxford flats to dress the dress down a bit. </p> <p>I added a big pink flower at the high waistline. My hair is pulled up into 2 side twists, and makeup is a shimmery nude eye with winged eyeliner and bright pink lipstick. I'm wearing large pearl earrings, lots of rings (that's every day) and a leather necklace that my husband and I both have, it was our 3rd anniversary gift to each other. I actually wear that almost every day too, but it's usually hidden under something. </p>
