My favorite is unbelted with the silver shoes, but the belted works surprisingly well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks/page/2#post-1711257 Wed, 10 Aug 2016 12:02:55 +0000 Tanya 1711257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an incredible, stylish dress!&nbsp; I too vote for unbelted and light shoes, it lets the dress shine in all of its fabness. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks/page/2#post-1711239 Wed, 10 Aug 2016 11:34:51 +0000 bella 1711239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This might just be the best dress ever!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks/page/2#post-1711214 Wed, 10 Aug 2016 09:54:00 +0000 Summer 1711214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An absolute work of art!&nbsp; I can just imagine how cool and airy this dress will be on a hot day.<br />I am also going with unbelted, and pewter flats - stunning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks/page/2#post-1711188 Wed, 10 Aug 2016 04:28:40 +0000 Sal 1711188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this Sharan, and like everyone else I like 6 the best. &nbsp;I definitely think light footwear is best (light in colour but you could go chunky in style). &nbsp;Heels or flats. &nbsp;I think let the dress shine without the belt </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks/page/2#post-1711183 Wed, 10 Aug 2016 03:51:36 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1711183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha ha, Ann!

You remind me of a fairy in this dress, and I mean that in the best possible way. All you need is a wand </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks/page/2#post-1710708 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 11:07:26 +0000 unfrumped 1710708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wowwow. Gorgeous. You look really good in the lighter colors, too- you picked beautiful fabric with just the right tones for your coloring. .<br /> The lighter colored shoes look better to my eye, though do not have to be super- light. I would play with some of your other light neutral footwear too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks/page/2#post-1710686 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 09:30:06 +0000 Ledonna N. 1710686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh how beautiful.

You look stunning in it, especially with the silver flats. I definately like it best unbelted becuase it showcases the artfulness of the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks/page/2#post-1709348 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 15:50:17 +0000 Colette 1709348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another masterpiece!

I like it both unbelted and belted. It's nice that it's versatile and you can choose how to wear it. So jealous of your sewing skills! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks#post-1709299 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 13:31:06 +0000 Diana 1709299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is incredible! I wish I had a dress just like it. It's great both ways but I prefer the dramatic unbelted version. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks#post-1709296 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 13:24:21 +0000 Beth Ann 1709296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What fun! &nbsp;Love the placement of colors!</p> <p>I also prefer sans belt and with low contrast shoes. &nbsp;I could use a llnen dress with our temperatures this week! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks#post-1709268 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 12:33:37 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1709268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone!<br />Skylurker, the two sides are the same length; there's a tuck in each big roundish piece, and the fabric is hanging a little differently from that tuck on each side, I think. Or it's the way I'm standing. After the photos, I also made a slight change to button placement on the bottom two buttons, to improve the way it hangs in front. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks#post-1709229 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 10:43:06 +0000 rachylou 1709229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Avant! No belt, I agree. This is a dress you have to all the way with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks#post-1709190 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 06:37:15 +0000 skylurker 1709190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also vote unbelted (and more breezy and comfortable this way, no?) and pewter shoes.<br /> Love the colours, and the volume (the volume probably looks even better IRL).<br /> There's one detail that puzzles me, but might be the angle of the pic, I see one side shorter than the other in the front - but I don't see it in the back view. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks#post-1709179 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 05:42:29 +0000 DonnaF 1709179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it!

It's very architectural. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks#post-1709160 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 04:58:09 +0000 Lyn D. 1709160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress, Love the colours!<br />Unbelted with the silver shoes is my preference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/summer-dress-with-birkenstocks#post-1709144 Sat, 06 Aug 2016 04:22:09 +0000 Amy 1709144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that's really fun!
