I might take you up on that, though I'm hesitant about the 3/4 sleeves. Other than that it would be perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305898 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 07:27:57 +0000 Sally 305898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress but maybe you should try a smaller size. I have a similar shirt dress and the sales assistant persuaded me to buy a more fitting size. I"m pleased I did because it seems to be more flattering to have the snugger fit.<br /> The jacket does look too big but if you are really keen to keep it, you may be able to style it with the sleeves scrunched and open with something fitted underneath it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305889 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 06:31:05 +0000 qfbrenda 305889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ended up at Old Navy tonight to take advantage of their jeans sale and found the dress in a small on the sales rack! It fits better than the medium so that solves that problem. :)</p> <p>I came home with a belt that fits as well. :P</p> <p>Thanks for the input. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305817 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 03:06:09 +0000 cobaltblue 305817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cute dress, especially belted, but I agree that you haven't found the right jacket yet. When you do, let me know, because I'm looking too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305790 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:37:29 +0000 Reneeb 305790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress belted but the jacket is too big. Loft has a white denim jacket in petite. They are having a 1 day sale 30% off March 12th. If you need a code I have one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305764 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:18:55 +0000 nicoleb 305764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress, especially how you styled it in picture #2. I think the jacket does look too big though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305757 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 02:15:29 +0000 modgrl 305757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like how you styled the dress in look 2. Can you try to wear the belt a little bit higher, like at your natural waist? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305670 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 00:19:42 +0000 medusa 305670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I quite like the dress, especially belted. It's a great color for you!</p> <p>The jacket looks too big to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305657 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 23:41:56 +0000 FoolOfATook 305657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to disagree slightly with everyone here (eep!) and say I think the jacket fits you through the body, it's just the sleeves are too long. Could you roll them and see how it looks? I like the dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305647 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 23:31:54 +0000 tracy 305647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress belted in #2. The demin jacket is too big, definitely a return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305587 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 21:33:02 +0000 qfbrenda 305587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, this is a petite. I think the small petite would probably be too small, which is fine since it isn't available anymore anyway. I really want a white denim jacket but it's not going to be this one. LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305580 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 21:28:01 +0000 kellygirl 305580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the dress is sweet. It looks great belted. The jacket is definitely too big. Did you order the jacket in petite? FWIW, the small petite is quite a bit smaller and more cropped than the medium petite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305568 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 21:17:48 +0000 Queen Mum 305568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress, and it seems to me to fit you nicely.<br /> But yes, the jacket is too big. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305533 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 20:56:47 +0000 qfbrenda 305533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could try a size down on the dress, though it was mail order so it would involve sending the medium back... unless there's a better way to do it. My measurements just went into the "small" range in the last couple of weeks, so the idea of actually fitting in a small is very new to me. LOL I think I bought a medium because I thought I would never fit in a small.</p> <p>And yes, I need a belt that actually fits me. LOL That's on my "to get soon" list. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305530 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 20:53:29 +0000 CocoLion 305530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote return the jacket, it is too big. I'm on the fence with the dress. I like the length on you very much, as well as the pattern. Could you push the belt up a little higher? It looks a little like it's on your low waist. The belt is also too big on you. The looped look is OK, but a belt which is actually made for your size would look more streamlined.</p> <p>So I guess I vote keep on the dress, as it seems my hesitation is all about the belt and belting technique not so much the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305519 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 20:41:55 +0000 catgirl 305519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote too big on the jacket (bittersweet, I know!), and I may think the dress is too big also. Could you go down a size to compare? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-dress-and-jacket#post-305506 Mon, 28 Feb 2011 20:30:25 +0000 qfbrenda 305506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1/2) dress</p> <p>3) I don't love the picture, but I'm adding it for size reference... so you know what I look like without the jacket LOL</p> <p>4/5) Old Navy jacket... I'm thinking it's too big? </p>
