I really honestly like it on you.

It's good over the jeans, but I don't love it as a dress. I guess being so pink and being so gingham is just too much or something in my mind. But you have a fantastic eye for what works on you and I think your own opinion is much more valuable than mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471504 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 14:40:01 +0000 Angie 1471504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE it over the jeans. Killer look.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471489 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 14:27:09 +0000 Suz 1471489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it on you! The stylings are fun, and you absolutely suit this pink. It doesn't read false plain light pink to me, but still gingham. I think your dark hair helps keep it from being over sweet. I love pink and ordered a couple of pink jackets last year, but ended up returning because with blonde hair it was just too cute, you know?&nbsp;</p> <p>If the pulling bothers you, maybe undo one more button. It worked completely done up for sure. And I think it will work with one extra button undone as well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471450 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 13:46:46 +0000 jackiec 1471450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As long as you're good with that much pink, keep. I really like the fit of this one, actually, and the fit sells me on it despite the pink (not that I don't like pink, but it's a lot ;).The colours looks great on you, and I love all of your stylings. You wear it well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471449 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 13:45:19 +0000 Sara L. 1471449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it.&nbsp; I like to wear pink as it generally looks good on me (and you as well) so I like the color.&nbsp; I think it contrasts well with your neutrals.&nbsp; The shape and fit seem very modern to me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471445 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 13:42:01 +0000 Staysfit 1471445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it on you. I say keep. Whenever I see gingham it reminds me of the mother -daughter outfit my mother sewed when I was maybe 6 or 7. A maxi skirt of turquoise gingham with a peasant blouse and a wide matching headband. I was head to toe gingham, and so was she! Enough for the rest of my life!! I can only wear small amounts myself. I appreciate it on everyone else. My solution to gingham is below. I purchased this blouse for S/S. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471440 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 13:39:06 +0000 amiable 1471440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it lots! &nbsp;It's a terrific shape and fits you great -- at least to my eye &nbsp;You look lovely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471437 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 13:37:12 +0000 citygirldc 1471437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with approprio. Although the color looks great on you and seems quite comfy, I'm not sure it does your figure any justice.&nbsp; That's just me though.&nbsp; </p> <p>Love all your shoes. I have similar silver ones and black oxfords.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471436 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 13:36:13 +0000 cjh 1471436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all the silhouettes esp. with the skinnies under;&nbsp;the dress is adorable on you, even though pink doesn't seem as what I've perceived as&nbsp;one of your favored colors. But the distant fade-to-pastel isn't really an issue - small patterns just do that.</p> <p>Even though you look great in your usual grays and navy blues,&nbsp;perhaps for spring and summer you will love to have this choice. </p> <p>The last pair of silver shoes... kind of a disconnect with the gingham for me, but I can see how it might work for some occasions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471333 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 08:57:12 +0000 approprio 1471333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dunno. I'm on the fence about this. It's a nice dress and you've styled it as beautifully as ever, but I don't think that big block of reads-pink-from-a-distance is doing you any favours. It doesn't look like something that will call your name&nbsp;from the wardrobe.</p> <p>I'll be the spanner and say return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471325 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 08:03:46 +0000 Anonymous 1471325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've styled it in so many cool ways that I would not have thought of and I really like what you've done. I think it could be a keeper! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471303 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 05:25:41 +0000 Elizabeth P 1471303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it, and I'm impressed with all the ways you've styled it.

Keep! <br />I love how you're wearing it, alone or with skinnies, and unbelted. Gingham is in, so I'd hang on to it while it's on trend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-pink-gingham-shirtdress#post-1471285 Thu, 09 Apr 2015 03:58:10 +0000 rabbit 1471285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thrifted, from the Gap, all cotton, dark pink and white check. &nbsp; It reminded me a little bit&nbsp;of the dress below <b>Annagybe</b> found at Brooks Brothers.&nbsp; </p> <p>I was into the possibilities looking&nbsp;in the mirror, but not so sure looking at photos. &nbsp;The high-contrast lighting is making it look more wrinkly than in real life and in the mirror it didn't appear to pull -- at least buttoned all the way. (I can button the cuffs tighter too).&nbsp; Also it's doing a false solid pale pink at a distance where up close it reads dark pink &nbsp;and white...hmmm...</p> <p>I'd wear it as is (it has a self-sash, but looks better un-belted), or over skinnies - black and white as well as the pictured navy and gray. &nbsp;Also with black traditional white soled&nbsp;converse probably and silver sandals.</p> <p>Thoughts about styling? &nbsp;Keep or return and&nbsp;keep on looking?&nbsp;</p>
