The first one had too much unnecessary fabric at the sides. Stunning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681927 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 06:04:50 +0000 Marley 681927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh this looks soooo good on you - perfect for a pool party! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681887 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 03:51:38 +0000 Beth Ann 681887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OOOH, yes!

I like the size 4 best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681825 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 02:21:57 +0000 nancylee 681825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! It's a keeper. I'm so glad I ordered both sizes and was able to choose the right one. Thanks for the great advice, Angie and everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681749 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:08:13 +0000 Angie 681749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The smaller size is much better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681741 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:04:57 +0000 JR 681741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the smaller size better. If you are comfortable in it, go for it. ;o) Because, of course, my opinion is all that matters... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681690 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:27:02 +0000 nancylee 681690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christy and Sara, I can sit comfortably without any significant pulling in the smaller size so I'm ok there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681686 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:22:17 +0000 christy 681686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As long as the fit is still breezy and comfortable (it looks that way, but does it pass the sit test?) I like the 4 better. Wishing the 4 had just a bit more length, but girlfriend you have some great legs and should show them off! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681682 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:18:40 +0000 MNsara 681682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, this smaller size takes it up another couple notches! It was cute and summery and kaftan-like, now it's much more summer tunic dress.</p> <p>In that it's linen, can you sit without any lap tightness problems? If so, I vote smaller </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681676 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:11:48 +0000 nancylee 681676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, I have to thank you for suggesting that the fit might be a little loose. I tried the 4 on again, and now I'm thinking it's a better fit. (see new photos </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681625 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 23:23:02 +0000 Meredith1953 681625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome dress! Very 60's mod and I bet it would look good with white skinnies under it or even boots in the Fall! It is a lovely color on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681620 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 23:16:12 +0000 Angie 681620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to suggest a size down at first, and part of me is still curious to see how that fits! But it's a linen dress, and linen should not be tight, so lets stick with this one :)</p> <p>Gorgeous colour! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681610 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 22:54:27 +0000 nancylee 681610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone! </p> <p>MNsara, good idea to try it with white leggings.</p> <p>Claire...it does feel very 60's mod retro...a different look for me. :)</p> <p>Rae, I am debating on the size a little myself. This is the size 6, but I also ordered a size 4. I tried the 4 on first and thought it felt a little small, but now I'm thinking I should try it on again and post a comparison photo just to be sure.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681599 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 22:32:58 +0000 rae 681599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very fun! At first I thought maybe it was a little lose, but that should be perfect for a pool party. Claire is so right about the 60s vibe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681562 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:46:05 +0000 Anonymous 681562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is crazy good! I'll bet you will be the only one in a dress like this at your party. It looks kinda 60's. I remember watching Apollo 13, and the wives of the astronauts were out by the pool (in Florida) and wearing things like this. Very chic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681556 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:41:58 +0000 Mona 681556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous dress! it shows of your lovely long legs nicely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681555 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:40:28 +0000 Heather 681555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you need to book a Caribbean trip ASAP! Gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681551 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:37:52 +0000 MNsara 681551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's perfect for the pool party and perfect on you! (I tried it in store, but JCrew does *not* cater to us pears Pretty color, flattering shift fit.</p> <p>I hope you keep it and have fun wearing it! </p> <p>I could also see it over cropped leggings for cooler spring weather, but not sure how dramatic black leggings might look with such a fun color . . . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681535 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:15:40 +0000 morethanbeige 681535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's really cute! And the color looks great on you! Perfect for your poolside party. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jcrew-batik-print-tunic-dresswarning-bright-color-ahead#post-681530 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:07:35 +0000 nancylee 681530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm such a neutral girl most of the time I thought I'd shake things up with a bright tunic dress. This just arrived over the weekend, and I'm thinking it's a go. We have a poolside party to attend this coming Sat and I wanted something casual, bright, and fun. </p> <p>What do you think?</p> <p>UPDATE: Wise Rae noticed that the dress might be a little loose, then Angie chimed in and said she wouldn't mind seeing the smaller size out of curiosity. So, I tried on the 4 again and now I'm thinking it really is a better fit than the 6. </p> <p>Photos 1-3 - Size 6<br /> Photos 4-6 - Size 4</p> <p>I'm thinking the smaller size is actually better. It's still loose but just a little closer to the body and more flattering. Opinions? </p>
