Tanya, you will look beautiful in it. I was thinking of a safety pin, but Antje brings up a good point on remembering one. Antje, what do you button it into? I do have a hook and eye, maybe that eill work. I wore it with a black cami in the picture. I wonder if a turquoise would work too.</p> <p>Marianne, why don't wrap dresses work for you? I thought they were universal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-46303 Mon, 26 Jan 2009 04:32:05 +0000 Antje 46303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll post pics this week for sure. I love the colors of the dress; Tanya, I think they'd be great for you, too. And you can't beat the price... I'll need a cami under the dress, too. And then I thought I might sew a little button into the skirt so I can fasten it and don't always have to remember having a safety pin handy. The dress is long enough on me that I can wear it as a dress rather than over skinnies; I was thinking of it mostly as a spring dress without pants. I run warm, so I wear bare legs relatively early in the year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-46296 Mon, 26 Jan 2009 04:18:45 +0000 Tanya 46296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianne, I have that dress but in different patterns from previous seasons and yes, I do need a safety pin on the skirt otherwise it will open too much, especially if it is breezy. I also wear a cami underneath too.</p> <p>I am seriously thinking about getting this one too - I saw it in person and liked how it fit me, but I was undecided since I already have quite a few wrap dresses. Then, none in these colors... Eva &#38; Antje, we may become triplets :)</p> <p>I am really looking forward to the photos Antje. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-46292 Mon, 26 Jan 2009 04:12:44 +0000 marianne 46292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also saw the dress in person yesterday. I didn't try it on because wraps don't work on me, but it's absolutely beautiful! Unfortunately I didn't see anything in a similar fabric. I also wondered about how to wear it - it almost seems like you need a base layer like a slip, but a safety pin might work. It probably works great over skinnies. I am looking forward to your pictures, Antje! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-46274 Mon, 26 Jan 2009 03:43:17 +0000 Antje 46274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eva, thanks again for your great pics and the inspiration. I just had to go to H&#38;M myself this weekend and check out that wrap dress, and lo and behold, I found it and loved it and bought it, too! I hope you don't mind the copy-catting. I also bought another dress and two little cardis, and am happy as a clam with my new purchases. I'll post pics sometime this week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-46164 Sun, 25 Jan 2009 13:41:49 +0000 Eva 46164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hm, good catch, Maya. I did some organizing. Here it is again.</p> <p><a href="http://s281.photobucket.com/albums/kk223/E-RPics/Jan%202009%20HM/" rel="nofollow">http://s281.photobucket.com/al.....2009%20HM/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-46156 Sun, 25 Jan 2009 06:44:45 +0000 Maya 46156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Boobalah, I can't see the pictures either. I thought it was just me so I didn't say anything. Eva, it says the images were moved or deleted. Did you move them to another album? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-46155 Sun, 25 Jan 2009 06:28:45 +0000 Eva 46155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianne, it is a very lightweight jersey. It is a true wrap so it will open up in the wind. I am thinking I will need to safety pin it.</p> <p>Boobalah, not sure why you can't see the pictures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-46103 Sat, 24 Jan 2009 23:13:28 +0000 boobalah 46103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wonder why I can't see the pictures.

Reminds me that I have to stop by H&#38;M soon... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45990 Sat, 24 Jan 2009 15:23:51 +0000 Ana 45990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great finds, Eva! I really wish there was an H&#38;M near me now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45886 Fri, 23 Jan 2009 23:00:05 +0000 marianne 45886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great purchases, and the dress is absolutely stunning. Is it jersey? How lightweight is it? I love the color and pattern, and even though I can't wear wraps, maybe they have something similar in a different cut. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45868 Fri, 23 Jan 2009 21:25:47 +0000 Antje 45868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eva, I love all of your purchases, you look super! I especially dig that dress - and am planning a quick trip to H&#38;M myself now, I'd wear that in a second. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45810 Fri, 23 Jan 2009 17:34:56 +0000 Violet 45810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely purchases! I love the floral prints. I haven't been to H&#38;M in a long time, but I'll have to pop in there sometime to see what they have. Thanks for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45707 Fri, 23 Jan 2009 05:02:11 +0000 Anonymous 45707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear the florals beautifully Eva. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45645 Fri, 23 Jan 2009 00:58:08 +0000 Ariadne 45645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great finds! I especially love that wrap dress. I'd never guess any of these things were from H&#38;M. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45625 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 23:02:00 +0000 Angie 45625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that scarf is going to look good with all your white and black tops. Turquoise and purple as well. Tanya, it’s your thing too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45559 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 16:30:46 +0000 Tanya 45559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are gorgeous purchases Eva, and they look so pretty on you!</p> <p>Funny thing is, I was in H&#38;M 10 says ago, sort of in a hurry so I couldn't try things on, but I made a mental note to try the exact sweater and exact dress that you bought ( and some third skirt)! So we might end up being twins </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45557 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 16:23:40 +0000 Eva 45557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you everyone! </p> <p>Nicole, My friend is a pretty pear like me and didn't think she could wear one well. She probably tried on 6 in various styles and sizes. She had to go a larger size than she wanted (H&#38;M has that European sizing!). She looked much better in the longer vest versus the shorter (I call it juniors because I don't know what else to call it) vest. I think the shorter one showed too much shirt in the back, whereas the longer one seem to flow down her slim waist to her hips. I didn't think it looked masculine at all.</p> <p>Angie, I love the floral scarf, but I will need to think of different ways to wear it as part of an outfit. Right now I have the classic black turtleneck top... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45553 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:58:54 +0000 Anonymous 45553@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! Love that wrap dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45550 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:40:48 +0000 ChristineB 45550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! I love everything. I'm actually going to be near an H&#38;M next month, and I've always wanted a wrap dress. Maybe I'll have to check it out. I love the florals - they can be used to brighten up a dreary winter day, but will still look great in spring/summer, especially the scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45549 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:38:05 +0000 Angie 45549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Delish!

My computer is having issues lately. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45532 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 14:39:33 +0000 Ellen 45532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't you love those unexpected finds?! All your purchases are beautiful, but the wrap dress is outstanding. It fits you perfectly! I have been craving an H&#38;M wrap dress, but the last few I've tried on were not available in my size. I will be checking again when I'm near an H&#38;M in 3 weeks! I hope this one is still available.</p> <p>Nice choices! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45519 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 12:15:15 +0000 Nicole 45519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in both pieces. I wish there was an H&#38;M near me. :(</p> <p>So, why did you friend think she couldn't rock a vest? I am curious because I feel the same way--I love the look of vests, but I admit I've never even tried on one because I just assume they'll look masculine on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45518 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 08:44:23 +0000 Lee Hovey 45518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG love the dress! I have been searching for a wrap dress but haven't been able to find one that is the right color/pattern. I will have to hot up H&#38;M on my way home from NH this weekend.</p> <p>All the purchases look great, I also love the floral cardi! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45516 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 07:36:40 +0000 Amanda 45516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the floral patterns -- and you look great in both the top and the dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/it-as-suppose-to-be-dinner-and-window-shopping#post-45514 Thu, 22 Jan 2009 06:47:09 +0000 Eva 45514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>...but before we even picked a restaurant, my girlfriend said wasn’t sure if vests would work for her so we stepped into H&#38;M to prove that she would look great in a vest. Then one thing lead to another and we both had a huge armful of clothes to try on. Here are my purchases:</p> <p>A gray and black floral cardigan. <a href="http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk223/E-RPics/Graysweatercropped.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i281.photobucket.com/al.....ropped.jpg</a></p> <p>A turquoise wrap dress (that is a true wrap so I will need to watch out on windy days) <a href="http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk223/E-RPics/IMG_0339.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i281.photobucket.com/al.....G_0339.jpg</a></p> <p>A lovely floral print scarf <a href="http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk223/E-RPics/IMG_0345.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i281.photobucket.com/al.....G_0345.jpg</a></p> <p>And yes, we found a great vest for my friend and finally had dinner. </p>
