I'm cutting the tags and tempted to wear it to work tomorrow. The sky might fall; that's two dresses in two days for me!</p> <p><strong>@Deborah</strong>: oooh, thanks for the ideas! I'm not loving the dress-as-top look as-is, but I'll definitely try again with your suggestion!</p> <p><strong>@Sylvie</strong>: It's those IT hips :P</p> <p><strong>@MNsara &amp; @christy</strong>: That's hilarious! I think you might be the first person I've heard of using the TrueFit feature! I love the denim jacket idea, too, not the least because I've got my eye on a cropped denim jacket when my budget resets at the end of September :)</p> <p><strong>@Aida</strong>: No, I don't watch Arrested Development (but plenty of friends tell me it's my sort of humor). You made me literally laugh out loud, though, which is unfortunate because then I had to explain myself to co-workers ... :P. I love the layer-under idea, too; been wanting an excuse to try a <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2011/12/15/casual-jeans-and-t-shirt-but-still-buttoned-up/">white collared shirt under a patterned black top for a while</a>! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706651 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 22:25:33 +0000 Angie 706651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a yay vote too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706648 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 22:18:16 +0000 Aida 706648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks lovely on you, and if the material is semi-substantial you could get a lot of wear with our "seasons" (also air quotes side bar: did you watch Arrested Development? If so, any time I see quotes when people are writing I picture <a href="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_liwqtnnMsa1qiygqwo1_400.gif">Lucille with her 8am martini doing air quotes</a>. If you haven't watch it, you should.)</p> <p>Anyway! I think this looks best as a dress, too. You could wear with fun flats or boots until the weather cools down. Then you could wear with tights, layer a long sleeve shirt underneath, wear with a jacket (blazer, moto, cardigan, denim), etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706407 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 17:35:31 +0000 MsMary 706407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it!! How smart to tuck it into a skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706351 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 16:13:20 +0000 catgirl 706351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's great! Love that you can tuck it too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706229 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 14:32:45 +0000 JR 706229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up! Very flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706182 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 13:29:48 +0000 christy 706182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this dress and think it looks great on you! I vote keep. I'm with Sara that I like it best worn as a dress and would layer over it rather than trying to wear it tucked in as a shirt, but that's just me. I can see this working fabulously with a cropped denim jacket and black leggings also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706176 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 13:16:52 +0000 Janet 706176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adorable!

Lovely print, great fit and versatile. I like Deborah's ideas for #4 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706049 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 05:15:35 +0000 Jyoti 706049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It fits great on you and perfectly skims your body! I vote keep for sure! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706034 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 04:45:20 +0000 MNsara 706034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Adorable dress on you! I much prefer it as a dress than the other variations, but it's not just your dress, I always veer that way.</p> <p>Anyway, it's a keep from me! </p> <p>I'd layer toppers over it, like sweaters, cropped denim, cropped blazers. What about a shirt under it (like a jumper)?</p> <p>ETA: ha ha, I went to stalk your dress and add it to my cart, but based on the remaining Petite sizes, I see: True FitTM Size for sara: Not Recommended </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706030 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 04:37:37 +0000 jayne 706030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>it fits great, is super cute and i love how versatile you make it! Keep for sure </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706008 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 04:01:54 +0000 Sylvie 706008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! I think it looks great on you. I'm especially impressed that you can fit it over a pair of jeans, which really helps the versatility. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-706006 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 03:59:20 +0000 Deborah 706006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is gorgeous on you. I love the way the pattern changes. I find it very flattering. Re the last picture with dress as top, it is sitting just a little too blousey at thew waistline for me. How about tuck a bit more and add a slim belt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-eliza-j-polka-dot-jersey-shift-dress#post-705998 Wed, 29 Aug 2012 03:46:30 +0000 Charmian 705998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>"Inspired" by some recent weight gain (those are air-quotes, ladies and gents), I bought another <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/eliza-j-polka-dot-cap-sleeve-jersey-shift-dress/3278970">Eliza J shift</a>. Fortunately, it's 60% off so when (ahem) I lose that weight I won't feel bad about spending big bucks on an ill-fitting dress.</p> <p>I think it's a keeper, but I want to run it past the YLF gurus to ensure I'm not being blinded by sale goggles. Please vote: YAY = keep, NAY = return.</p> <p>I love the print, and I think it draws the eye away from the boatneck (and my IT shoulders). Dressing it up: <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-fun-coincidence-with-my-clutch">my clutch</a> (omg dot overload) and retro black heels. Dressing it down: with jeans, as a tunic. Bonus picture of the dress as a top for <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1215-new-midi-and-husbands-belt">my midi</a>; not loving this last look. </p>
