The pops of colour are lovely. You look wonderful in this? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-915096 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 10:50:30 +0000 Anonymous 915096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What a lovely dress and what great colours! The dashes of yellow, a fuschia jacket and turquoise necklace make for an unusual combo, but it absolutely works. I'm going to take notes! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-915066 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 09:06:24 +0000 RoseandJoan 915066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is a gorgeous look, I love the different sizes of the stripes and how the pattern is broken up with flashes of yellow. A great find. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-915064 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 08:45:20 +0000 lyn67 915064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanx y'all, it seems the purple jacket/and the faux Bayley's stripe dress&nbsp;will get a ton of use around my office:-).&nbsp;<br /><br />Shannon&amp;Sveta:&nbsp;My simpathy for your not colaborating wheather. It's full spring here, finally: we expect&nbsp;even 25°C this weekend and&nbsp;am&nbsp;bare legs from last week on all the time...:-)<br /><br />Suz: Yes, as I&nbsp;do not really have luck in the pants department, I tried to make my chance in other dpt's. I only have&nbsp;3 spring pants at the moment(white ankle length jeans, navy chinos with a slounchy like fit, and a skinny khaki)&nbsp;so not a big fun with them. In fact,&nbsp;I&nbsp; really cannot put together&nbsp;a pants outfit and achieve&nbsp;&nbsp;enough of a polish&nbsp;for my liking and as you other ladies&nbsp;can do with so ease...(perhaps white jeans,&nbsp;achive that for me sometimes, only)&nbsp;but will try to make&nbsp;more posts in the future&nbsp;&nbsp;with pants, too.<br /><br />Nancy: I too wanted, but&nbsp;I cannot do obi, or another belt, as the dress has it's own&nbsp; 2 ties, starting wide&nbsp;on front sides, tieying on each other on front&nbsp;and then getting slimmer on sides and back-and tieying again on back (or front, if wanted)- I don't know if&nbsp;my poor description &nbsp;makes sense but in fact, all together&nbsp;looks quite&nbsp; like of a self fabric&nbsp;obi&nbsp;belt.<br /><br />JulieJohn, and all: Thank you for the kind words. You made my day:-) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914776 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 23:24:39 +0000 teri 914776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ i love it, color combo is perfect https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914662 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 21:06:32 +0000 Anonymous 914662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a pretty dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914646 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 20:36:13 +0000 Ornella 914646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ha, if you ever come across B44 let me know. I want it too.<br /><br />In the meantime - what a great find, it has integrity of its own. Great way to style it,&nbsp;I love all the pops of color and I also love seing your eyes.<br /><br />Way to go, the spring is here, no more excuse not to play with colors... https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914560 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 19:18:59 +0000 Transcona Shannon 914560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What a gorgeous dress on you Lyn. And I love the purple jacket too. I can see you getting a lot of use out of these two pieces.<br /><br />I'm incredibly jealous of your cherry blossoms. I can only dream of blossoms https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914460 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 17:27:13 +0000 nancylee 914460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This is a lovely dress on you, Lyn. &nbsp;I like how you've styled it with the jacket. &nbsp;You could even try it with a leather or obi-style belt for a little contrast at the waist.<br /><br />Beautiful flowers! &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914456 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 17:23:19 +0000 Sara L. 914456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think the dress looks great on you.&nbsp; I also think all the colors look good together and with the dress.&nbsp; I'm sort of color averse too, so I can understand how you might feel somewhat overwhelmed.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914438 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 17:08:11 +0000 Suz 914438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ooh! Look how the beads reflect your lovely eyes! So pretty. And I love that purple on you. What a useful jacket. Will also look great with jeans.&nbsp;<br /><br />As for the dress, that is a total winner on you! Love it with the pumps and bag. It has a sort of casual elegance. You have been very lucky in the dress department lately.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914399 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 16:25:21 +0000 Sheila 914399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that color combo on you and while there may be too much going on for you, I think you were successful with this outfit. It looks very nice without the jacket as well, but definitely not the same "pow" of color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914398 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 16:23:32 +0000 Sveta 914398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Great dress! And no, even with a purple jacket and yellow bag it was not too much IMO because dress itseld reads pretty neutral.<br />I like how the beads echo the color of your beautiful eyes!<br />Cherry blossoms...how beautiful! Looks like we are pretty far from them yet, had some dusting of snow and frost this weekend... https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914396 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 16:22:27 +0000 JulieJohn 914396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Lyn, you look excellent! I like it both with and without the jacket, and your shoes really make the stripe color come out. What a beautiful and versatile dress. Plus, I love your write ups, you are honest and fun-loving.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914394 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 16:18:57 +0000 rae 914394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Gorgeous! And honestly, it does have that B44 aesthetic. Love! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914392 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 16:16:54 +0000 Jan 914392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look amazing in that dress! I love my jersey dresses for travelling. No ironing, just wash them in the hotel sink and hang it up. The purple jacket makes it pop! Keep doing colour! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914385 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 16:12:05 +0000 Liz A. 914385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I prefer it without the jacket.&nbsp; Super fab find! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914325 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 15:15:52 +0000 Debbie 914325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow indeed. You look stunning! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/not-the-bayleys-but-wow#post-914262 Mon, 22 Apr 2013 14:10:23 +0000 lyn67 914262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ ... a springy stripe dress!:-) <br /> I so wanted one of those Bayley's dresses&nbsp; some of you sport here on YLF but that never rise it's head by us. This is a jersey dress, found on the weekend, and&nbsp; is a&nbsp;win for me as has 7/8 sleeves, and think can wear to work.&nbsp;<br /> I was a little hesitant:&nbsp;are the stripes&nbsp; running enough of flatering for me? &nbsp;but then decided flatery has not always to be my first priority! <br />Team wear now, so I wore it today to the office. <br />I also&nbsp;styled it a bit too colourful and &nbsp;maximal for the neutral and minimal&nbsp;me, and took a risk with the new purple collarless, chanelesque, cotton jacket, yellow bag and 1" balett flats. Also some statement mint beads there. Thus, once in the office the purple jacket went off, bag on my side, so think the beads were more bearable with it so.<br />What do you say, shall I step back or do more colourfull outfits? <br />Thanx for your time, feedbacks always appreciated. <br />PS. Bonus pictie with cherry blossoms from our garden:-), but I have to run now:-(.
