You were so creative with your scarf posing, too! Loved that. I like the wrap dress on you, as well, because I think that is very figure-flattering. Hope you enjoy whatever you decide to keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-519271 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 14:57:08 +0000 Girl X 519271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eeek! I just reread this thread and noticed a huge typo in my reply that I can no longer edit.<br /> "...but now in a way that will be dated two years from now." That should read WON'T!!! be dated two years from now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-519158 Tue, 24 Jan 2012 07:20:35 +0000 Aida 519158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah I just realized I missed a whole slew of replies! My apologies, and thanks for the feedback ladies! Glad to see the black dress gets more love, tags are off Still need to do a natural light photo of the wrap dress...</p> <p>Andrea, the leather on the boots is Amazing. They are buttery soft and feel super. The part that makes the gape look so wide is the two little flaps on the side; I don't think it's too bad.</p> <p>Morethanbeige, all three scarves are from Target :)</p> <p>Una, well thank you on the trim comment! I need to work off some holiday weight but I happily managed to keep things pretty under control this year. Good thing I have a "salty tooth" and not a "sweet tooth" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-517698 Sun, 22 Jan 2012 18:43:11 +0000 catgirl 517698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could have sworn I commented here already! I love almost everything here, ESPECIALLY that b/w dress - one of my favorite things I've seen on you, seriously. The only thing I'm not adoring is that sweater dress - the color doesn't do you justice, although the fit is cozy. If you added something with color around the neck, maybe it could work?</p> <p>You're looking very trim and fit in general, BTW. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-517663 Sun, 22 Jan 2012 17:29:00 +0000 MsMary 517663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see you're all sorted, and all I have to say is "Wow! Good thing you weren't relying on me because I've have said they were all 10s!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-517563 Sun, 22 Jan 2012 14:30:46 +0000 morethanbeige 517563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida, where are the scarves from? They are beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-516873 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 17:53:33 +0000 morethanbeige 516873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the black dress. Perfect fit and very flattering. I see beautiful hourglass. The sweater dress seems to fit very well (accentuates killer bod), but I think it washes you out compared to other colors. I love the scarves! My fav on you is the coral. Your face just lights up. Can I ask where are the scarves from? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-516868 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 17:47:43 +0000 RandomThoughts (Andrea) 516868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm LOVING the black &amp; grey sweater dress p 10+. I really like the wrap dress and would love to see it in natural light also to see if it makes you come alive. I love the print and fit of it.</p> <p>I'm torn on the scarves. I like the citron but I do think the coral is a titch better on you.</p> <p>The boots are a little gapy but not too bad. How do they feel? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-516862 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 17:41:38 +0000 chewyspaghetti 516862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You must keep that first dress- I also really like the navy dot scarf and the striped sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-516849 Sat, 21 Jan 2012 17:34:00 +0000 Laura 516849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #1 dress - That might be my favorite item you've ever worn! Also love the boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-516014 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 16:16:51 +0000 danza.armonia 516014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the black dress on you. I would pass on the beige sweater dress (though in another color, perhaps red? or cobalt?, it could be spectacular) and skip wrap dress. The red-spectrum and lime-spectrum scarves are wonderful on you. </p> <p>The boots are slightly gapey with bare legs, but to my eye they are also a little slouchy which should make that okay. I think they are super-fabulous boots on a super-stylish lady - KEEP! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-515083 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 06:06:46 +0000 Aida 515083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the feedback Victoria, Christy, and Jem!</p> <p>Angie, ahh makes sense. You weren't the only who sees that, though the color is actually more ivory than white. I think once the snow melts a bit I'll get some outdoor photos with the wrap dress in more realistic colors and repost. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-515028 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 04:39:23 +0000 Jem 515028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the first dress and think it's really flattering on you! I think the wrap dress fits you amazingly, too, but thought the same thing about the color not being the best on you, but then I thought maybe it looked better in real life. (I thought maybe the colors were brightened in the picture?) I also think the orange scarf is my favorite and looks really pretty on your skin and am not a good judge on boots (I'm trying to figure that one out), but think yours look nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-514910 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 02:13:02 +0000 Angie 514910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida, it's all very subjective, but I guess I don't think that the pattern is a 10 against your complexion. It's too white. It's a 9! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-514860 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 01:09:27 +0000 Isabel 514860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too am interested in Angie' stake on the wrap dress. To my eye, it looks great, but I want to learn to be discerning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my/page/2#post-514854 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:58:31 +0000 christy 514854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the black and wrap dresses but not sold on the sweater dress (sorry!). I like all of the scarves, but super glad you are keeping the coral one - that color is fab on you! And you know I'm biased towards the boots! I like 'em both ways, but I might be a bit less of a stickler on the whole tiny bit of gap thing than some others. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-514840 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:42:30 +0000 Victoria 514840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in all the outfits, love the citron scarf on you! You have great figure and I think its shown off quite nice in these dresses:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-514835 Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:38:49 +0000 Aida 514835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>THANK YOU for all the fabulous feedback ladies! I will keep the black dress, the boots (to wear with jeans only), and the coral scarf. Will return the yellow scarf, most likely the taupe sweater dress *sniff*, but am not sure on the wrap dress yet.</p> <p>Angie, could you possibly elaborate on your thoughts re the wrap dress? I was pretty set on keeping it until getting to your post :}</p> <p>Amy, I feel you on the sweater dresses! I have been looking for a chunky cable knit dress like this that fits properly for years now &gt;&lt;</p> <p>Girl X and Lisa, I wear both white and ivory, though I'm sure one one looks better than the other (I can't tell). The wrap dress isn't as starkly white as it looks in the photos, it's actually a slightly creamy off-white but the high contrast in the photos is making it whiter.</p> <p>Kelly, I actually ordered the taupe sweater dress in two sizes and the size up made me look very unshaped hehe. It is certainly cut for someone far straighter than I. My husband rather liked that dress (and also I have zero winter dresses) which is why I'm still debating with myself about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513476 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 16:49:22 +0000 Carole 513476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You make it so easy for us with all your great photos! I really love the black dress on you and as a fellow IT I realize the sensitivities to styles that accentuate this area, but I think you look fantastic in the dress. The second dress isn't a 10, maybe it's the color and the cowl neck. I'm not crazy about the pattern of dress 3, I like the style. Fab scarves and killer boots! I just love the striped sweater in 3, btw. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513460 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 16:36:14 +0000 kellygirl 513460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, fun stuff, Aida! I lurve the black dress on you. It's divine and hip and killer all rolled into one fab dress. I love the idea of the cabled dress but it is not as fab as the black one. I think the cowl is a bit wide and kind of accentuates the shoulders too much. I love the scarves and the boots. Gosh, the boots are awesome and make me want a pair myself! I like the shape of the wrap dress but find the print kind of overwhelming--but that's just conservative me.</p> <p>ETA: I just read through the comments and saw that it is the "not so sweet" print of the white dress that beckoned you. I'm changing my vote to keep. The fit is perfect--I just found the print jarring (to me--ms. low contrast.) My other concern about the sweater dress is the fit from behind. I think I'd like it better if it skimmed a bit more. I find the fit emphasizes your IT--ness because it tapers in so much at the waist.</p> <p>ETAA: The boots are amazing with the jeans. ISWYM about the boot with bare legs but for some reason, it doesn't bother me. I think it's because they are low contrast with your leg? They only look a smidge tall. If these are predominantly dress boots then I would return but if you are looking for a sleeker boot for skinnies, I would keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513453 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 16:29:46 +0000 modgrl 513453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey boot twin! I love the boots with jeans but I am not crazy about them with bare legs. They are definitely more fitted on my wide calves. I love the first dress but not the light colored sweater dress. Scarves are really cool too! Great haul! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513410 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 15:45:16 +0000 Angie 513410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is KILLER. Keep!</p> <p>Return the sweater dress and the wrap dress. They are not 10's. </p> <p>KILLER boots!</p> <p>Keep the red scarf. That's a 10 on your complexion too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513371 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 14:54:23 +0000 Isabel 513371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WIthout reading other comments, I LOVE #1 on you. It really is soooo complimentary to your figure. Keep.</p> <p>I am not lovin' the cowl neck sweater dress, but I don't know why. I think that I don't like the color or heaviness of it on you. I also don't like the scrunching in the back. Return</p> <p>I will just skip right over the wrap dress : FAB ! Keeper</p> <p>The scarves . Full disclosure, I just posted the other day with the navy dot and stripe one...so I LOVE it !!!!! You look great in the orange, too. I am not sure about the citron on you. I find it yellowing your lovely complexion. So I say return the yellow/citron.</p> <p>Boots...KEEP ! But only over jeans or pants or leggings. A bit wide otherwise.</p> <p>Now I am going to read what everyone else said so that I can change my answers ! LOL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513349 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 14:31:28 +0000 Jjsloane 513349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite is the wrap dress on you. I prefer the red scarf to the citron, but both could work. You have a great shape and the black dress is complimentary (but yes the shoulder are emphasized from the back only) Not a fan of the sweater dress for it's color, shape and cowl. It also looks scratchy, but that's just my perception of it obviously. As others have said the boots with pants for sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513348 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 14:31:16 +0000 Lisa 513348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok not looking at other answers yet:</p> <p>1/2-I have this dress and I like it so I'm biased. But even though we are two different shapes (I'm a pear) the fit on you looks quite similar and I do not see any extra exaggeration from the back view, I vote keep.</p> <p>3/4-I like the fit, but not the color it looks like it washes you out and with a cowlneck you can't layer with a scarf for extra color near your face, I vote return.</p> <p>5-Again I like the fit but not the color, the white seems a bit harsh against your skin. Do you look better in ivories?</p> <p>6-I vote tomato scarf it instantly brightens your face.</p> <p>8-Sorry I vote return on the boots. They look like they hit at the bottom of your knee. And they have a bit too much gap on the bare leg. Maybe if they were just a little shorter (perhaps half or an inch shorter?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513346 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 14:29:23 +0000 cinnamon fern 513346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the wrap dress and the black dress. I don't think the taupe sweaterdress fits well enough to keep - not because it's bootylicious, since that would be an advantage in certain contexts, but because there's too much fabric around the waist, especially from the back. It's maybe cut for someone more rectangular than you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513328 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 14:15:47 +0000 Transcona Shannon 513328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida - these are some fab items! I love the black sweater dress. Yes, it kind of emphasizes your shoulders but not in a bad way. The dress overall showcases your killer hourglass shape - so I vote yes on this one. I'm afraid I'm not crazy about the second sweater dress - I don't think the shape of it or the oatmeal colour does your gorgeous self any favours. The wrap print dress is GORGEOUS on you - please keep. I love all the scarves. And the boots looks fantastic with jeans/skinnies. They might be a little bit "gapey" (is that a word?) for bare legs but I'll let the boot experts chime in on this one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-dresses-scarves-and-boots-oh-my#post-513273 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 08:16:33 +0000 Girl X 513273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My 10's: </p> <p>The black/blue panel dress. I actually like the subtle shoulder emphasis, it's a very NOW silhouette, but now in a way that will be dated two years from now.</p> <p>The scarves! All three!</p> <p>The boots with jeans! </p> <p>My not so 10's:<br /> I think I would have liked the sweater dress better had I not just finished seeing you in the awesome black one. I saw the black dress first and that set my gauge for what a 10 is.</p> <p>I think the black/white print on the wrap dress is too stark with your colouring. If the white was cream or even beige or something, I think this would be stunning.</p> <p>☺ </p>
