So I appreciate your choice of clothes! I like how you put the white shirt under the dress.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1366059 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 09:15:26 +0000 Lyn D. 1366059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Clever!

Thanks</p> <p>ATLynn - you are right - Mexican restaurants are quite the flavour of the month down under now with a huge explosion (and yes prior to that they were hardly seen). I haven't been to any myself though as I don't eat out very much. My friends cooking wasn't all that adventurous - nachos and tacos, and dips and chocolate mouse ( missed that last one as we left at 10.30 to not keep my babysitting Mum up too late). She did however make a huge effort to have plenty of gluten free food which I appreciated - and which is easier to do with mexican food.</p> <p>Thanks everyone for the compliments.&nbsp; I did have a good time!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364722 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 14:53:14 +0000 avicennia 1364722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Being Mexican, I can say this authoritatively! You looked very appropriately dressed. The shoes add a nice retro touch ala Frida Khalo in the 30s and I love the necklace! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364709 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 14:18:53 +0000 Anonymous 1364709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Anne--so creative, i'd say you were in the perfect headspace for a theme party, nice work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364701 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 13:58:26 +0000 ATLynn 1364701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great, and I think that's a really clever way to "theme up" for a party. &nbsp;Did your friends experiment with some Mexican dishes? &nbsp;I remember it being a little tricky to find Mexican food when I lived in Melbourne in 2008, but I've heard there are new restaurants opening all the time now. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364667 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 11:09:28 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1364667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress fits you very well and you look fab. &nbsp;Nice idea on the flag colors. &nbsp;Hope you had fun at the party. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364641 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 08:18:29 +0000 Lynne 1364641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your thinking!&nbsp; You look wonderful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364638 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 08:07:09 +0000 rachylou 1364638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very flattering outfit and festive! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364616 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 06:43:35 +0000 Deborah 1364616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Clever thinking re wearing the colours of the flag. &nbsp;I think your outfit looks really good and the jacket is so fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364551 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 03:56:12 +0000 jackiec 1364551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so great! What a wonderful idea! DH hates dressing up for anything - this is a really good way to participate yet not look goofy. And yes, your figure is fantastic!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364539 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 03:44:50 +0000 anne 1364539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Una - that was a very encouraging thing for&nbsp; me to read. I am a bit above my "normal" weight at the&nbsp; moment and I was actually anxiously asking DH the "am I too fat to wear this" question as I was dressing.</p> <p>Columbine the jacket is great isn't it? I bought it for a wedding but I like getting the CPW down and try and wear it every few weeks, specially as it has survived my handwashing instead of&nbsp; having to dryclean. It was too hot to wear most of the party though.</p> <p>And yes I just stuck to my story when a friend looked at me disappointedly and and said I hadn't dressed up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364516 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 02:49:30 +0000 columbine(erin) 1364516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the topper on you. It drapes so nicely. Since you didn't have a costume it was clever to use the colors of the flag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364511 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 02:46:57 +0000 catgirl 1364511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anne, you have the nicest figure and you look adorable.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mexican-party#post-1364503 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 02:33:21 +0000 anne 1364503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went to a Mexican themed party last night, and didn't have the head space to&nbsp; source a proper costume since I had nothing suitable in my wardrobe so I went with "wearing the colours of the Mexican flag".&nbsp; <br />I was a bit out of place among the somberos and ponchos but less so by the second half of the night when people started to shed those layers! </p>
