Dress is fab, but too casual for the peplum jacket (and their necklines are competing both too high), but love the dark espadrilles to it. nr 7 is just PERFECT!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden/page/2#post-1927397 Sun, 10 Jun 2018 23:07:21 +0000 Jjsloane 1927397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice! Just what a summer dress should be. I like all versions, but #7 is my personal favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden/page/2#post-1927391 Sun, 10 Jun 2018 22:42:58 +0000 Beth Ann 1927391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like it with the long cardi, for sure! The shoe pairings are great -- I do prefer the white to the dark sneaker, if you go for a sneaker option. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1927160 Sat, 09 Jun 2018 20:45:46 +0000 unfrumped 1927160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chiming in— super dress on you. Agrees, shirt navy or king white topper. White slides are fab but it’s versatile with the sneakers too. A keeper! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1927130 Sat, 09 Jun 2018 16:31:58 +0000 Anonymous 1927130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in it, and as others have already said, the white cardi &nbsp;is a great pairing . Nice find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1927121 Sat, 09 Jun 2018 15:38:40 +0000 Molly Mac 1927121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I own this dress and love it. I have worn it at least twice a week since buying it. I have worn it with my navy Euro sandals for casual days and with a flat strappy nude patent leather sandal for a dressier look. To wash it, I put it in a lingerie bag and throw it in the washing machine on delicate. I lay it flat to dry so it doesn't stretch. No fading, shrinking, or pilling so far. It looks great on you. For a topper I have been wearing my faded shrunken Levi's jean jacket. I would add finds but have not successfully figured out how to do that and have not quite worked up the courage to post WIW. Hope this is helpful. And I did go down a size in this dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1927043 Sat, 09 Jun 2018 06:05:04 +0000 Toban 1927043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely dress on you.

I think all of these styling options work well. I predict a workhorse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926983 Sat, 09 Jun 2018 00:55:59 +0000 Windchime 1926983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress totally suits you!

I like it best with the long white cardi, if a topper is necessary. All the footwear works well to my eye with the silver/white sandals being my fave. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926944 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 21:55:39 +0000 kkards 1926944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s interesting to see how different we can be... I saw suz’s comment on preferring the light footwear... I actually had the opposite thought, preferring the dark- I really like #1 with the dark sneakers.<br /> And I’m loving your hair </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926892 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 17:39:22 +0000 rachylou 1926892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it and I like your hair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926868 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 15:20:36 +0000 Dianna 1926868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a fantastic summer&nbsp;dress, I prefer numbers 4 and 7, but 7 is my overall favorite.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926867 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 15:19:04 +0000 Elizabeth P 1926867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div><b>Marilyn</b>, if you remember, I'd love to know how you make out once you wash yours.&nbsp; I'll try to remember to let you know, too.&nbsp; It might be August before it's warm enough here to wear it though....&nbsp; :(&nbsp; I had the navy in my basket for a long time... but I already have a plain navy dress so wisdom prevailed, for once.&nbsp; It's lovely.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Suz</b>, yes, sort of.&nbsp; I tend to run between sizes for tops in BR, and took the larger of the two in this.&nbsp; Both fit, but I thought this one was slightly better fit across the shoulders, plus I wanted to err on the side of looser for the summer.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Bijou</b>, I do have a denim jacket but it's a bit long for dresses.&nbsp; I agree one would look great with this, and I think I may see if I can find a "dress appropriate" length one.&nbsp; I've often wished I had one, just haven't done anything about it!&nbsp; <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks <b>LP.</b><br /></div></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926862 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 14:59:03 +0000 Bijou 1926862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous dress on you - I like the white cardigan best too. Do you have a denim jacket? I could see a blue or white denim jacket working well with this dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926860 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 14:54:28 +0000 Suz 1926860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw this dress in store and loved it at first sight. Did you get your regular size? (She asked, greedily...)</p> <p>It looks fantastic on you. I like 3 and 7 best. Prefer with light sneakers to dark but lucky you can wear either (or your citron). I think the peplum's the wrong proportion for it, though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926853 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 14:31:17 +0000 LaPed 1926853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice!! I shouldn't even look at stripy dresses, I have too many as it is. My fav is #7, with the longer topper and the white sandals. Casual and elegant. The peplum seems to be competing a bit with the twist in the dress; I think the longer and shorter toppers both look more intentional.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926852 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 14:31:09 +0000 Marilyn 1926852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Love this, Elizabeth.&nbsp; I'm not crazy about the peplum jacket but the long white sweater is a fantastic look.</div><div><br /></div><div>I bought this dress in the solid navy. I was happy to find a t-shirt dress in a more substantial fabric.&nbsp; I haven't washed mine yet but plan to cross my fingers and do a cold hand wash cycle.<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926844 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 14:12:16 +0000 Elizabeth P 1926844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie, Cardiff girl and jlpp! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926838 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 14:06:43 +0000 Angie 1926838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW.</p> <p>KILLER FAB.&nbsp;</p> <p>LOVE.</p> <p>#3 and #7 are my faves.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926832 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 14:02:10 +0000 Anonymous 1926832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it in #1 &amp; #7 the most.<br /> Love the peplum jacket on you too, just with a different outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926824 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 13:56:12 +0000 Cardiff girl 1926824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely dress suits you beautifully,not keen on it with the jacket though,the jacket looks too formal to go with the casual vibe of the dress.Everything else is great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926822 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 13:55:16 +0000 Elizabeth P 1926822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Thanks ladies!</div><div><br /></div><div>I agree 100% that the peplum is too long.&nbsp; Funny, IRL when I put it on, all I could see was the detail of the peplum at exactly the same spot as the detail of the dress, and it seemed a bit too much going on.&nbsp; I didn't really look at the photo before I posted, but now that I do, I totally see that the length is off.&nbsp; <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Oh, the power of the photo!</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926816 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 13:46:17 +0000 Mirjana 1926816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely dress, I prefer with long white cardigan #7. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926812 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 13:35:44 +0000 kellygirl 1926812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress! I like it best sans topper but the ones you showed look good. The only one I don't think works is the peplum. Looks like a fab summer dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926811 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 13:35:31 +0000 SarahD8 1926811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic dress on you! Relaxed (it looks great with the sneakers) but with a little of your characteristic edge.</p> <p>I love it with both cardis, but I agree with the other comments that the length of the peplum jacket isn’t quite right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926809 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 13:35:03 +0000 Becky 1926809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the stripes! I think the denim peplum in #6 is too long for the dress. I prefer the long cardigan in #7 to the other toppers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-new-dress-not-boden#post-1926805 Fri, 08 Jun 2018 13:29:20 +0000 Kathie 1926805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress on you!! Hope the dry clean situation works out. I think the peplum jacket is just a tad too long to wear with the dress. My favorite is the longer white cardi. </p>
