Swap out the ribbon for a proper belt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513942 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 01:31:21 +0000 Ginny 513942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think with your creative styling ability this would have no probs looking grown up. this is a great dress, nice cut, i agree with the tips already suggested. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513914 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 00:49:44 +0000 lyn* 513914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There is one similar to this at F21 actually... it was very static-ky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513909 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 00:43:38 +0000 goldenpig 513909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love Taylor's suggestion of black leather moto jacket. Hot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513891 Wed, 18 Jan 2012 00:00:13 +0000 Mochi 513891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it a lot also. Rita, you could style it in all sorts of ways to mitigate the potential sugar-coma sweetness of it. I could see someone like Diane Keaton back in the day doing some interesting take on this dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513887 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 23:54:24 +0000 amyreh 513887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this dress, so glad to see polka dots everywhere! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513886 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 23:49:39 +0000 Victoria 513886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think its sophisticated and don't look "junior" at all. Add high heels and you have nice dress that could go pretty much anywhere! I shop at junior departments a lot because their sizing fits me better so nothing wrong with that. I found some nice trendy pieces before at Nordstroms </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513850 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 23:17:02 +0000 taylor 513850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! I love that dress, just think how grown up it would look with a black moto, sleeves scrunched!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513848 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 23:16:40 +0000 christy 513848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally think you could pull it off with the proper styling! I'd say it's worth giving it a shot at least. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513845 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 23:16:14 +0000 Mellllls 513845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i like the dress but the model is just soo young. i wonder if the dress is cut for an adult (hips, bust)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513841 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 23:12:39 +0000 rachylou 513841@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just stand like a grown woman! It's a good dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513829 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 22:58:28 +0000 CocoLion 513829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others that if you replace the belt, it won't look too twee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513823 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 22:52:05 +0000 rae 513823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Long and simple enough that it does not look too young to me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513799 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 22:15:11 +0000 Ginkgo 513799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What's kid stuff are the model's Mary Jane shoes and her pigeon-toed stance, and the ribbon belt. With the right accessories and belt this dress could be great for summer. Go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513781 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:43:45 +0000 goldenpig 513781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You would so rock this style Rita! I would covet it myself if I didn't already have a black Kate Spade version with white polka dots! I bet it would fit you well especially since you're petite. How would it look with the black obi belt instead of the ribbon? That might counter the cutesiness of the polka dots.</p> <p>I unapologetically shop in junior's every so often. I got my cute rust orange and navy peacoats in the junior's section at Nordstrom! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513771 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:35:11 +0000 nicoleb 513771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it. I think sometimes it's hard to see past the model they put it on. Maybe take off the bow belt if you're worried about young-ness since polka dots are already a playful factor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513768 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:32:54 +0000 Girl X 513768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! I think it only looks 'junior' because of the model. I think it would look normal on a proper adult. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513757 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:21:55 +0000 Transcona Shannon 513757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it can pass as a classic lady's dress Rita - especially with how you will turn up the style notch with it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513756 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:21:33 +0000 RoseandJoan 513756@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also think replacing the ribbon for a leather belt could downplay the twee factor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513754 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:17:53 +0000 Jjsloane 513754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd have to see it on you, but from this shot if you imagine her in a womanly pose (arms out and toes not pointed in) it wouldn't surprise me to see it in the non-juniours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513753 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:16:46 +0000 chewyspaghetti 513753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could only see this on Dakota Fanning it it was hemmed up to where her junk just about hung out of the trunk (if ya know what I mean). It doesn't look young to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513752 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:16:29 +0000 morethanbeige 513752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm kind of digging it... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513743 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:09:16 +0000 modgrl 513743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, they definitely have the "cutesy" factor turned up on this model. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513742 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:08:42 +0000 Mo 513742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hard to tell from a photo. Sometimes its the seams and finishes that can make a dress look disposable (think Forever 21!). But if you are asking about style alone I think this looks fairly classic.<br /> I get some juniors stuff due to fit issues, also. Mostly jackets since ladies sizes invariably have low armpits and I can't always find things in petites. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513741 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:07:37 +0000 annagybe 513741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's not junior looking but very twee. It kinda reminds me of something Marc Jacons would put Dakota Fanning in for one of his ads. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/straying-into-the-juniors-section#post-513736 Tue, 17 Jan 2012 21:04:39 +0000 modgrl 513736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know it's a no-no but sometimes the clothes fit me better.</p> <p>Does this dress scream Kid Stuff to you? </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/deeray-pleated-polka-dot-chiffon-dress-juniors/3234526?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=1140" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/de.....tback=1140</a> </p>
