I'll keep the damn dress :)! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-516001 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 15:56:09 +0000 Angie 516001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look matronly as Madonna:)</p> <p>This is beautiful. I prefer the longer length of the dress. Retro and fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515921 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 14:31:09 +0000 cinnamon fern 515921@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire, that is useful info about the fabric, I guess this is not a summer dress!</p> <p>Rae is right about the boots - they are a little too tall - not sure what to do, because they are nice and snug through the calves.</p> <p>It's nice to hear all your comments about the dress! I look at the pictures and I just see a woman whose butt sticks out way too much </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515806 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 05:06:50 +0000 Karina 515806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, it's really flattering on you, so I wonder why you're not comfortable with it. I mean, seriously, who would not want to have that side view that is yours????<br /> I like the boots, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515799 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 04:53:31 +0000 Travelgal Nicole 515799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress and not at all frumpy. THe boots are cute with it and I agree adding a denim jacket would be fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515745 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 03:12:43 +0000 Anonymous 515745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you kidding me? You look fantastic! Rae is an expert on boot fit, so what whe says. The dress looks great on you, but I had a couple made of that fabric last summer, and once the humidity kicked in I could not STAND to wear them. I'm from Virginia too, so I know how bad it gets there, lol! This year I'm going to look for woven dresses in cotton/silk/tencel/viscose/rayon. Cool and breezy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515495 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 20:26:54 +0000 rae 515495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sometimes it takes a bunch of compliments to help us realize that something is still "off." If the dress isn't you, then onto better things! </p> <p>How do the boots feel in the shaft? They look super fab and perfectly fitted in 4, but then in 2-3 I can't tell if they might be slightly too tall and have a gap up top... That might just be a weird effect of the backlighting, though. If the shaft is snug, I definitely vote to keep - beautiful color with your hair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515490 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 20:13:24 +0000 texstyle 515490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is great but if you don't feel right in it, you're right to return. I think I can actually see from your photos that you feel a bit uncomfortable wearing it - and I know that feeling. Maybe you can find something else with a navy, white polka dot pattern that feels better to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515480 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 20:03:05 +0000 cinnamon fern 515480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The boots are also part of the keep/return! What do you think?</p> <p>I'm going to send the dress back, I think - it is figure flattering but I'm not sure it's me. However, I must give Ralph Lauren his due for making me look like I'm in better shape right now than I actually am </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515410 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 18:48:08 +0000 Scarlet 515410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress looks great. I can't tell that it has shoulder pads at least from these pictures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515408 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 18:47:35 +0000 rae 515408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress! Are the boots also part of the k/r, or do you own those? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515389 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 18:11:08 +0000 Kappy 515389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another passenger on the "Love" Boat here! Looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515384 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 18:06:57 +0000 rachylou 515384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit, not at all matronly. But grown up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515374 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 18:00:02 +0000 Transcona Shannon 515374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooohhhhhhh...I really like this dress. Polka dots are totally classic and the fit on this dress is very figure flattering. Love it with the boots. A little denim jacket would be great over this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515370 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 17:53:09 +0000 Jem 515370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great! You can't tell that it has them. Can you remove them if they bug you? The dress looks fab in the picture! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515360 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 17:40:59 +0000 Vicki 515360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've got a great body and the dress looks really nice on you! I like its body-hugging effect and agree that a denim jacket would also be another added touch. Your thoughts on wearing it with sandals, in warmer weather, is also good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515348 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 17:24:55 +0000 jayne 515348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This dress is great on You. and not frumpy at all! or too young. Perfect fun look if you want to wear it with a colorful scarf or cardigan. Lady like with pearls. Or casual with a thin blouse under? enjoy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515334 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 17:10:11 +0000 rute 515334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>classic or matronly? No way!<br /> You look lovely! You can add a denin jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515321 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 16:50:22 +0000 cinnamon fern 515321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fabric is polyester and spandex - not sure how that holds up.</p> <p>I was thinking I'd wear the dress with boots and a sweater or jacket now, and sandals in summer. Although now that I think of it, a black polyester dress might be unwearable in summer in hot sticky VA. I am not sure I own anything made of polyester. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515315 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 16:39:02 +0000 catgirl 515315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not matronly worn this way! You look great in this dress to my eye. What is the fabric? Is this how you'd wear it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dress-and-boots#post-515313 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 16:37:38 +0000 cinnamon fern 515313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress has shoulder pads - not sure whether those are a good idea for me. And is it classic, or matronly? I'm turning 40 soon. </p>
