I think a camisole as per Angie's suggestion would be perfect. I could see ballet flats with this or sandals. Its beautiful. Cropped tailored jacket for work and cropped denim jacket for play. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625798 Tue, 22 May 2012 08:23:47 +0000 lyn67 625798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super dress--love the colour block combo so so much, and a lace cami will work IMO, too.-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625784 Tue, 22 May 2012 07:39:40 +0000 harmonica 625784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress! You look absolutely gorgeous. I thought you could always add a cami if you would like to cover up a bit, but they Angie chimed in with the lace cami suggestion which would be absolutely wonderful. Angie is a genious! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625757 Tue, 22 May 2012 05:41:16 +0000 Kate 625757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a great dress, Jewell, and looks lovely on you.

You could wear it with any of the shoe types Angie showed in her fit-and-flare dress post. Love the idea of an orange belt with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625690 Tue, 22 May 2012 02:50:18 +0000 sarah 625690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's very pretty. Why don't you try with a cami and repost? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625678 Tue, 22 May 2012 02:37:55 +0000 Angie 625678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this dress! I vote lace camisole for work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625667 Tue, 22 May 2012 02:27:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 625667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a lovely dress Jewell! I love the fit and flare style and the colours. I agree about popping a cami underneath for work situations but it can be worn without for an evening out. Love the idea of a denim jacket overtop. Different footwear, handbags and jewelry will make this a versatile piece in your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625664 Tue, 22 May 2012 02:23:57 +0000 Jewell 625664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Natalie, the dress is MNG by Mango (available at JCP). It is a very nice summer dress. It's lined without being heavy. And it's funny you should suggest an orange belt. I had that same idea but quickly dismissed it bc I thought the look might be ALGO. Now you've got me considering it again : )</p> <p>modgirl, it's navy- my favorite shade of blue. I have camis in both black and navy, so I'll have to see how it looks.</p> <p>Thanks for the styling ideas, especially the shoe suggestions! I am such a novice in the shoe department, but with help from YLFers I'm learning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625652 Tue, 22 May 2012 02:05:20 +0000 modgrl 625652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So lovely! Is it black or navy? It shouldn't be too tough to find a cami. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625651 Tue, 22 May 2012 02:02:28 +0000 celia 625651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep keep.it is a beautiful dress and Tanya reminded well of Angie's formula. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625640 Tue, 22 May 2012 01:54:33 +0000 Jonesy 625640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks beautiful but I do hear you on the cleavage issue :). I'm not a fan of camisoles, so I don't know how it would work with one, especially since it's such a tailored, crisp dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625635 Tue, 22 May 2012 01:44:34 +0000 goldenpig 625635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this dress on you! What brand is it? It looks very nice, I wouldn't hesitate to wear it to work. You can add a white cami if you're really concerned but it doesn't look too low cut at all. I will be very upset with you if you don't keep it! (or send it to me!). I would wear it with beige, cream or yellow pumps. I like it with the current belt, actually. Or how about orange belt and orange pumps to change it up? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625610 Tue, 22 May 2012 00:54:49 +0000 JennyAnne 625610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's great on you! it'll be fun to try with different belts. As for shoes, I'd go with a substantial heeled taupe/saddle sandal, I think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625590 Tue, 22 May 2012 00:23:24 +0000 Anonymous 625590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great dress! I'm in love with navy at the moment. If it fits well and is comfortable, I'd say it's a keeper. You got a great deal on it and it looks like the style of dress that could take you almost anywhere! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625587 Tue, 22 May 2012 00:21:51 +0000 Sara L. 625587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute dress! I like the combination of navy and yellow and the dress seems to fit you really well. The neckline looks fine to me but I can see how it might be a problem at work (I never like feeling like everyone can look down my shirt if I lean over a table during a meeting). A camisole underneath or a jacket on top could solve that problem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625581 Tue, 22 May 2012 00:09:51 +0000 Victoria 625581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think its a great dress on you and I don't think its too low cut. Add a blazer and pair of heels, great work outfit. put on some dressy sandals and jewelry and its appropriate for night out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625578 Tue, 22 May 2012 00:06:48 +0000 Jewell 625578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the reminder about Angie's recent post on fit and flare dress ensembles! I think I commented that I'd like to try her ideas once I found the right dress. </p> <p>The dress is navy with yellow and white color blocking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625575 Tue, 22 May 2012 00:02:25 +0000 Tanya 625575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the dress on you and the neckline does not bother me at all. I would add denim jacket and some cute sandals, or blazer like in Angie's recent post on ensemble with fit&amp;flare dress. Is it navy or black? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-color-blocked-dress#post-625571 Mon, 21 May 2012 23:57:56 +0000 Jewell 625571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some of you may remember this dress from my wish list at the beginning of the season. I thought it would be a fun way to try the color blocking trend. When I went to try it on in stores it was still full price ($75) and the only options were XS (too small) and M (too big). A week ago I saw that the dress was on sale for $38 online and the S was in stock, so I thought I’d give it a shot. It arrived today and here are some pics of me trying it on. I have concerns about the neckline, but I could make it work-appropriate by layering it over a tee or camisole. I would definitely switch the belt out for a different one, but I have no idea what shoes I might wear. Thoughts? Is it a keeper? If so, any styling suggestions? </p>
