But terrific as is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805950 Sun, 07 May 2017 02:20:43 +0000 Anonymous 1805950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow!

I have other options of darker shoes that could be considered, including silver/pewter metallics. Because there is black in the print of the dress, that may be another option with a black topper or bag </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805902 Sun, 07 May 2017 00:18:34 +0000 Carla 1805902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For the event,M the way you styled it sounds (and looks) right. I really like it with the darker EF flats, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805893 Sat, 06 May 2017 23:27:38 +0000 Anonymous 1805893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Smittie and Lisa. I can try the pendant on a shorter chain. Smittie, I like your symphony idea. Lisa, there is a bit of elastic at the waist. I will look more carefully at it, but it is not just a belt tied over a loose dress </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805868 Sat, 06 May 2017 21:40:55 +0000 Anonymous 1805868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it with the pearls - the longer pendant is coming a little too close to the string tie belt. Can you wear it without the belt? &nbsp;The dress is prettiest with the bow front sling-backs, to my eye. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805866 Sat, 06 May 2017 21:39:25 +0000 Anonymous 1805866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is great! I prefer it with the pendant.<br /> I like both shoes.<br /> The length is perfect!<br /> I would team the pearl necklace with a vibrant top.<br /> For the symphony, I think it would look nice with a long jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805860 Sat, 06 May 2017 21:13:12 +0000 Anonymous 1805860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wore the version in #1 and it worked out well except that most women wore hats or fascinators. There was a fashion show but everything ( even jeans had lots of bling. Have you ever seen rhinestones on the cuffs of denim capries? Lots of cold shoulder tops with bling on top of bling.<br /> Thank you all for for your help. I need to continue to work with ways to wear this dress. It may get another outing for the symphony soon.<br /> Minimalist, I wish I were 5'7", but I am 5'3" after losing an inch in the past couple of years. Still most petite sizes do not fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805847 Sat, 06 May 2017 20:01:08 +0000 Anonymous 1805847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The outfit is a little more ladylike than your usual posts and I'm really impressed because while you always look great this looks like you but also perfectly tea party. You look lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805845 Sat, 06 May 2017 19:45:19 +0000 The Cat 1805845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a lovely lady! My favourite pic is the first one. So beautiful and elegant. The outfit looks harmonious with your own colours and lines. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805837 Sat, 06 May 2017 18:42:08 +0000 anchie 1805837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it a lot. Very elegant. I prefer white shoes, but regarding necklace don't have preference - like them both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805830 Sat, 06 May 2017 18:24:36 +0000 Janet 1805830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it on you! Especially with the pendant. I think the length is perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805827 Sat, 06 May 2017 18:16:25 +0000 minimalist 1805827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All options seem to work well, just to very different effects! Pearls w sling backs (sleek) vs pendant with ankle straps (relaxed). </p> <p>Seems fine flattery-wise. I'd never thought of you as "someone without a waist." I'd also imagined you as about 5'7" until recently reading a post in which you referred to yourself as somewhat shorter than that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805824 Sat, 06 May 2017 17:59:05 +0000 rachylou 1805824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just lovely for a tea! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805822 Sat, 06 May 2017 17:49:26 +0000 K.M. 1805822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the way you styled it in the first photo. Elegant and classic! It also goes well with the darker shoes for a more casual look. This combination of colors and tones is beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805820 Sat, 06 May 2017 17:30:40 +0000 Mirjana 1805820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent outfit Joy, I love it so much, beautiful dress with that also beautiful shoes, cardi, bag all are fantastic on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805817 Sat, 06 May 2017 17:17:22 +0000 Anonymous 1805817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your quick help, Shedev and Jenn.<br /> Jenn, I was surprised also at how flattering that EF bone color is. It must do well as they repeat it. I like it mixed with optic white, ivory, or pearl grey. I wish they would come out with some great bone flats that are not sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805810 Sat, 06 May 2017 17:00:23 +0000 Jenn 1805810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it, Joy. I like it better with the pendant, but the pearls are dressier, for when that's what you're going for. I think it'll be great over pants, but it's not too short to wear alone, at all.</p> <p>I ordered an EF shell in bone to try, and was surprised by how flattering of a color it was. I didn't really expect the shade to work on me at all, but it did (though I'm not keeping it for other reasons). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805802 Sat, 06 May 2017 16:35:46 +0000 shedev 1805802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks good. I like it with the shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tie-front-dress#post-1805800 Sat, 06 May 2017 16:28:13 +0000 Anonymous 1805800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have much in the way of tie front tops but do have a couple of tie front dresses. This one is silk and bought because the colors went well with my EF bone. I intended to wear it as a tunic over bone skinny pants but need a dress for a tea today and wanted to give it an outing. The tie is very narrow and string-like.<br /> The topper is an EF button-down dress. I do not have ideal footwear for this outfit. In the first photos are white/bone patent kitten sling back heels (1/2). the photo (3) shows my EF ankle strap flats. Which ones? I need a pale grey dressy flat.<br /> Also, which necklace? Pearls or pendant or something else? With the topper I felt I needed a filler.<br /> I welcome your thoughts and suggestions. Maybe this dress is too short and should only be a tunic? Bad style for someone without a waist? </p>
