Can't tell about the jacket with this picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-839599 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 12:33:09 +0000 Debora 839599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, I'm taking notes. I love how you layered the Gap pants under your dress. They are on my shopping list. I think it is all in how you style it with a top like the one in #3. Your outfit looks current and chic. I am such a fan of your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-839587 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 12:00:43 +0000 Deborah 839587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress and your stylings are very clever:). The jacket in #3 is appealing due to the pattern and colours but I just don't see the cut and shape as being as flattering as other pieces in your wardrobe:( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-839497 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 05:54:29 +0000 Kiwichik 839497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress with the skinnies and prefer it in the first shot. I also like it with the snakeskin boots but not sure about the other to you have layered with it. I vote keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-839169 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 22:04:09 +0000 Thistle 839169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the shift dress with the skinnies. Looks so good on you! I am not a big fan of the tie, but then it could just be my asthetics. I remember when girls were wearing ties in my youth!</p> <p>I look forward to more pictures of the jacket. As it is now, I am not sure it is working for you. Seems a bit less modern and streamlined than your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-839126 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 20:58:32 +0000 Inge 839126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You rock the shift dress + skinnies look, Joy. So crisp with the white shirt, and so spunky with the tie (adore it!-) It's a little hard to judge your new jacket from that one photo, but I see you are going to post extra pics, super:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-839004 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 18:43:33 +0000 rachylou 839004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab-u-lous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-839002 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 18:42:30 +0000 Anonymous 839002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, I think it doesn't cling because the dress is a heavy knit. It's not lined. I also have a flat bottom so not much to grab onto.<br /> I'll work on more styling for the Citron top and post pictures.<br /> Charmian and jayne, I think you've identified the problem with the tie. Thanks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-838976 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 18:06:40 +0000 jayne 838976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think photo 1 is best. The tie was huge, or you are tiny! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-838972 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 17:55:28 +0000 Charmian 838972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the layered dress. Angie's done this outfit a <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2010/10/07/layering-the-same-blouse-under-two-different-dresses/">few</a> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2010/10/05/how-to-layer-underneath-dresses/">times</a> too, so you can also cite her as inspiration! I actually prefer the tie-less version of this outfit, mostly because the tie is just too wide for your slim figure!</p> <p>Not loving the jacket at the moment; can you try it over pants/jeans? The competition with your dress's hemline is throwing me off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-838935 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 17:17:56 +0000 catgirl 838935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't believe how fab you look in a layered knit dress. How do you keep everything from bunching and clinging? I feel like knit dresses stick to wovens like mad. Or is the dress lined? </p> <p>Not sure on the jacket - Citron is a pricey brand and has nice easy pieces, but sometimes it looks a little frumpy to me in the store. Could you post some better pictures? Right now I'm leaning return as it doesn't seem sleek and modern enough for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-838910 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 16:54:19 +0000 Anonymous 838910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Diane. I need to try it with pants. I did try it buttoned up with pants, and it looked ok in the mirror but a definite no in photos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-838891 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 16:39:02 +0000 Anonymous 838891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress and how you styled it with the tie. I do like the silky jacket but something is maybe not quite right with proportion. Have you tried it with alternatives underneath? Perhaps a nay from me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sonas-dress-challenge-monday-going-minimal-a-kr#post-838887 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 16:33:21 +0000 Anonymous 838887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today's dress is a thrifted BR black merino wool shift. It's too short even for tights, so I'm wearing it over Gap black Really Skinny pants (my leggings). Layered underneath is my BB white shirt. MeToo black flats with patent cap toe.<br /> 2. For the scarf challenge I added a navy polkadot tie. I'm not very confident about this. What do you think?<br /> 3. I popped on a recent find from the Rack for your K/R opinion. It is Citron brand which I love and 85% off. I also like the silk fabric, colors and print. I have doubts about the size and the length working on me. Love it to pattern mix with snake. I'm leaning toward returning it but would love to know what you think. Yay= keep; Nay= return </p>
