It all makes sense. I will give it a try with the skinnies and add another white element or two. I love black and white together </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416733 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 21:50:06 +0000 ironkurtin 416733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You might also want to try a wide hipslung belt with the skinnies? Have fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416707 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 20:46:05 +0000 Aida 416707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with the others about the length. The belt placement looks good to me! I think the white would work if you added another element or two in white (like a necklace, watch/bracelet, earrings, scarf, etc.) This would also look really cute with jeans, cognac belt, cognac boots </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416643 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 18:33:11 +0000 Jenava 416643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't mind the color of the belt at all. However I do think you need to have a non-black, muted neutral somewhere else in the outfit to make it more pulled together. I.e. congac or mushroom-colored shoes or boots, an olive green utility jacket or a scarf in muted colors.</p> <p>Agree that this is too short as a dress...possibly because you legs are soooo long! On my short stubs it'd probably look normal. LOL... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416620 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 17:51:20 +0000 Scarlet 416620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am agreeing with the others. Because you are blessed with long legs, the dress looks too short. The belt looks well-placed, but contrasts a lot with the dress/tunic. I bet this would look really cute with skinnies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416602 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 16:52:03 +0000 Anonymous 416602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Astrid said. You may be happier with a belt that has less contrast in color with the tunic..black, pewter, brown, dark red or green. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416584 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 15:55:53 +0000 Vani 416584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What astrid and rute said! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416535 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 14:09:52 +0000 rute 416535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would try the tunic over jeans and with no belt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416506 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 12:54:54 +0000 cobaltblue 416506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute. I would try a darker belt over skinnies. Maybe try a dark purple or wine colored belt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416505 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 12:49:16 +0000 Atlantia 416505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Would love to see pictures of the tunic with your skinny jeans. I think a belt is still a go, but it would be great it you had a metallic or colored belt. Of course, maybe the white would work if you swapped out for some different shoes?<br /> And where is that tunic from? I've been hankering for something similar and been striking out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416504 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 12:15:05 +0000 Alessi 416504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the lovely compliment! I am glad you confirm my instincts about the length. I will try it with my skinny jeans. Do you think a black belt would work or should I just leave it out?</p> <p>Cheers and thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416503 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 12:09:40 +0000 sarah 416503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Exactly what Astrid said! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416495 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 10:49:12 +0000 Astrid 416495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, this looks more like a tunic to me. I would probably wear this one over skinny jeans or leans. You have great legs! I like the placement and the width of the belt, but I'm not personally a fan of the white on all that black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-sure-about-the-belt-and-is-this-just-too-short#post-416488 Mon, 05 Sep 2011 10:13:58 +0000 Alessi 416488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just wondering if I could have an opinion on how well this belt goes with this shirt dress. I have only just started trying to get a feel for wearing belts, I am really not sure. Also the dress itself. To be honest I think it is a bit short to wear as a dress. I put the thick tights on to make it look less scandalous but I am just not sure. </p> <p>I am very grateful for advice!</p> <p>Cheers</p> <p>Alessi </p>
