The striped top is OK, not fabulous. I didn't like the dress until I saw the pic with the patent belt. So now I say KEEP. : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-173794 Tue, 22 Jun 2010 00:25:54 +0000 yublocka 173794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari I had to chime in (late I know) just to say how amazing you look in this dress.

It was an instant winner for me. The paisley top is my pick out of the other two. </p> <p>Nice shoes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172743 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 17:50:13 +0000 Dani 172743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, seems like you're all sorted but I vote the first top and the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172715 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 16:30:13 +0000 Tanya 172715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them all and vote to keep them all. That dress is killer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172701 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 16:04:46 +0000 florida 172701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them all, and I love the shoes! I've seen that striped MK top in the store. Now that I've seen it on someone, maybe I'll try it on if I see it on my next trip to Macy's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172699 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 16:01:31 +0000 Angie 172699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, here is my 2 cents:</p> <p>You look sensational in 50's body hugging dress styles - like Joanie! Hope you watch Madmen. When you swapped out the belt and added the spunk of the Fidjis - perfection was born. The feminine drape of the dress with the harder edge of the shoes and the belt are as happy as clams together. On top of it all - the dress is kelly green - your signature colour :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172656 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 14:27:14 +0000 Patience 172656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm also one who likes the dress best. It's dreamy with the shoes. The tops are fantastic too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172653 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 14:21:15 +0000 marianna 172653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, I actually LOVE the dress on you. The colors are so different for you but look very very good with your red hair. It's a really unique dress and looks so fun with the yellow shoes. I'm definitely on team keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172649 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 14:13:09 +0000 Queen Mum 172649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ah, I do like the dress better with the belt. I had only looked at the first picture. I would like to see a more head on shot of the dress though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172604 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 07:12:39 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 172604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a big fan of paisley so I vote keep on top one and also keep on top 2 because it really shows off your little waist. But if you have to choose I vote for the paisley. </p> <p>I didn't like the dress until I got to the photos with the belts and then I really loved it, it is such an interesting pattern, I could see it working for lots of different occasions.</p> <p>Your new place looks very pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172598 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 07:03:39 +0000 Kari 172598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for chiming in, Thunalata. I'm not sure how often the striped top would come out, which is one of the issues I'm trying to consider. This weekend I'll wear it around the house with clothes I'd probably wear it with (jeans/walking shorts or denim skirts) and see if my feelings change. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172597 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 07:01:19 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 172597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look great in all of these and first reaction was keep all! Wasn't wild about the dress initially, but when Angie said 'Killer' I went back and this time looked at the later pics with your own belt (I'd only looked at the earlier ones) and yes suddenly that's really exciting. First top is a real wow and I love your jacket. Striped top I thought looked good but again reading Angie's 'uncertain' I went back and looked again. Still think it looks fun - how often would you pull it out of the closet? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172592 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 06:50:42 +0000 Kari 172592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How interesting that the opinions are so divided! I'm glad that for the most part the feedback is good, though. Here are my thoughts:</p> <p>The paisley top I loved immediately. I adore the draped and the ruched sleeves. It's also fun to have something slightly less fitted since it's a somewhat loose shirt. The hem is a bit banded, but as you can see from the pictures, it's not really sacrificing the waistline - my hips and bust just don't allow my waist to hide in this top. :)</p> <p>The dress was something that I wasn't sure about when I first got it, but I like it much better with the patent belt. The color and pattern are definitely different for me. I do like the shape, and the length is actually just slightly above the knee, so would be good for work. (It looks longer because my tripod was angled down from head level since my patio is pretty small.)<br /> Angie, can you elaborate a bit more about what makes it killer for me specifically? I'm curious given that some commenters didn't like it, and some liked it a lot. I like it, but want to make sure that it's absolutely a keeper since the sale price is kind of high for me. </p> <p>The striped top is fun, and you can tell by the pictures that wearing it put me in a fun and wacky mood, but looking at the pictures now I wonder whether the neckline (minus the off-center V) is too high and makes my chest look huge. I liked it on, but maybe I should trust the cameras more than the mirrors. Is anyone else seeing the same thing?</p> <p>The bottom line is that I can afford to keep all 3 pieces, but I don't want to introduce items into my wardrobe that could become orphans later - I'm aiming for fabulous-to-killer additions only.</p> <p>Taylor, yes, this is the patio at my new place. (The post-flood apartment repairs are *finally* done and the place looks great again! Woohoo!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172551 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 02:14:47 +0000 Anonymous 172551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, I hope that you can keep all three pieces. Each is wonderful on you and different from the rest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172549 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 01:57:40 +0000 agrace 172549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like everything too but I agree with Angie, that if one thing had to go it would be the striped top. It seems stripes are everywhere so if you returned that one you could always find a replacement. The other two are very unique and very flattering on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172546 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 01:31:41 +0000 marianna 172546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like everything. They are all keepers IMO! Love the poses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172541 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 01:03:44 +0000 Angie 172541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm on team dress! I like the frock best- hands down. KILLER with the Fidji shoes and swapped out belt. I vote keep with another capital K :0)</p> <p>The paisley top is gorgeous! I vote another keep. </p> <p>I like the striped top too, but not as much as the paisley top. If anything had to go - it would be the striped top. But I do like the striped top! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172536 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 00:44:48 +0000 Claudia 172536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Disclaimer: I own the dress (in grey) and love wearing it - BUT really tried not to let that influence my judgment here.</p> <p>Don't care for the paisley top on you.</p> <p>Love the striped top on you.</p> <p>Love the dress on you. I think it fits great and looks flattering to your figure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172535 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 00:41:40 +0000 taylor 172535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking FAB... outside your new place?</p> <p>Love both tops and I actually like the dress too:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172529 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 00:29:05 +0000 Lisa 172529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Paisley top-KEEP! Looks great on you!</p> <p>Striped top-KEEP! I agree with Jenny, also looks great and those last poses, too funny!</p> <p>Dress-I am also on the fence, it's OK, but not a WOW piece to me. Maybe it's the length, the print, I feel like it's swallowing you up, I vote return.</p> <p>BTW, those yellow shoes looked great with every outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172528 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 00:28:32 +0000 Queen Mum 172528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the 2 tops on you, but I'm not loving the dress. It seems like it's too high cut or something. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172525 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 00:25:24 +0000 JennyK (NC) 172525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Paisley cascade top - yay yay yay! Looks really wonderful on you!</p> <p>Striped top - Another winner! You had me dying with the sailor lookout poses!</p> <p>Dress - ya know, I don't dislike this on you exactly. But I don't like it as much as the top/pant combos. I'm not sure why. The cut is flattering, but I'm not as crazy about the green/black pattern and I think I would like it a little better if it were just a teeny tiny bit shorter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/michael-kors-topsdress-from-the-ylf-store-should-i-keep-it#post-172522 Sat, 19 Jun 2010 00:16:49 +0000 Kari 172522@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, I'm back with round 2 of "stuff I'm not sure whether I should keep."
