The smaller size came yesterday and I'll try it on right away. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1797424 Wed, 12 Apr 2017 20:09:17 +0000 geekgrrldc 1797424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this dress! You can do so much with it - dress it up or down. I would also suggest the smaller size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1796232 Sat, 08 Apr 2017 16:31:19 +0000 JAileen 1796232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Firecracker, thank you! I'll be curious to see how the smaller size fits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1796222 Sat, 08 Apr 2017 15:20:14 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1796222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this style on you, and think you should keep it (in whichever size fits best)! Great styling with the summer bootie/sandals! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1796011 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 23:27:11 +0000 JAileen 1796011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Staysfit, I agree, it could be very versatile. I'll have to see how the other size works out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1795965 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 21:11:33 +0000 Staysfit 1795965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I think this has great potential to be a wardrobe workhorse! I really like this dress on you. I will need to see the comparison of the smaller size because if I hadn't seen the model pics, I would never have thought to try smaller. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1795894 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 17:15:23 +0000 JAileen 1795894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thirkellgirl, you can brag if you want! I'm happy with my "chestal area" since I sleep on my stomach.</p> <p>You're right though, the smaller size will probably look a little better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1795879 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 16:54:11 +0000 Thirkellgirl 1795879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it in general but I think the smaller size will be better. I have a bigger chestal area than you do so I fill out the tops of those types of dresses more, not that I'm bragging. I love blue dresses, and I love swing dresses, and I wish I could afford that one right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1795848 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 14:43:57 +0000 JAileen 1795848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bijou, thanks for sharing your experience. I do feel huge in it. I ordered a smaller size, and maybe with a closer fit on my shoulders, I'll feel better. I want a throw on and go dress for multiple occasions - dinner out, church, theater, lunch with friends. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1795818 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 14:01:32 +0000 Bijou 1795818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a beautiful dress, but I can understand your concern regarding whether it is JFE or not. I have a number of swing items (dresses, coats and jumpers) and often feel as though I am twice the size because of the volume - but I do think that in motion, they are much more flattering than when standing still. I love the colour and fit, so I vote keep but only if you feel good in it. If you have any reservations then return because you will probably find that you reach for something else in preference if you are unsure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1795801 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 13:40:38 +0000 JAileen 1795801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge, Robin, thank you very much! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1795788 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 13:08:39 +0000 RobinF 1795788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it and love those booties! &nbsp;Very flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress/page/2#post-1795714 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 08:03:56 +0000 Inge 1795714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love it too, JAileen. Perfect fit, fantastic silhouette and a beautiful colour. Awesome with your sandals too.<br />Good that you ordered the size down too, just to compare. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795686 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 05:14:39 +0000 JAileen 1795686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In truth I look twice as wide as the model.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795685 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 05:11:15 +0000 rachylou 1795685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks just like the pic(!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795669 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 04:23:05 +0000 JAileen 1795669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julie, thanks! Charcoal grey? One of my favorite colors to wear! </p> <p>Joy, thanks! I'll compare when the smaller one gets here. In the picture I thought it looked like I was wearing a maternity dress! I think it needs to fit a little closer around my shoulders. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795663 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 04:05:52 +0000 Anonymous 1795663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! The dress hangs close to the body so does not look too full.. Definitely try sizing down from your usual size to compare. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795660 Fri, 07 Apr 2017 03:56:39 +0000 Julie 1795660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! I have a dress just like this in charcoal grey and i wear it a lot. It's so comfy. I also agree with all you smart ladies about the size, and about wearing it with a long necklace or scarf. Or both! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795547 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 22:21:12 +0000 JAileen 1795547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Traci, that's a good idea! Thanks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795543 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 22:06:22 +0000 Traci 1795543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This type of dress makes for a fantastic layering piece too. &nbsp;A fitted blazer, scarf and booties would be very smart with this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795491 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 19:03:07 +0000 JAileen 1795491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vivian, thanks! In the wind I'm afraid it would be like Marilyn Monroe in The Seven Year Itch!! I should buy some extra cute underwear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795488 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 18:59:01 +0000 viva 1795488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of sizing down, but I really love this silhouette and I like it with those shoes too (just the right amount of heft and skin). It's got great movement. Would be fab on a breezy spring day, and the color is gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795483 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 18:53:32 +0000 JAileen 1795483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenn, thanks! I think you and abc have a good idea. When I get the other size, I'll try it with a long necklace. I actually packed up the dress to return before I posted these pictures, that's how unsure I was. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795460 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 17:34:43 +0000 Jenn 1795460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks good, but try the size down and compare. Also, I want to echo what <b>abc</b> said. A long necklace or scarf might help you feel more comfortable with the silhouette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795437 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 16:43:49 +0000 JAileen 1795437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Xtabay, thank you! I ordered the smaller size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795432 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 16:05:51 +0000 Anonymous 1795432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous color, and I think it will be perfect for you once you go down a size.&nbsp; (I always have to size down in EF.)&nbsp; It's a very versatile dress, and I'm betting you'll wear it a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795423 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 15:39:44 +0000 JAileen 1795423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Karen, thanks!

I think the size down will make it perfect. This one looks to big. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-swing-dress#post-1795417 Thu, 06 Apr 2017 15:26:48 +0000 JAileen 1795417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, thanks!

Pretty colour </p>
