I love the idea of a lace bomber or a kimono style. I no longer have the Zara Kimono as I gave it to a friend since I wasn't getting much wear of it.<br />I will try the one I linked to and also continue my hunt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271710 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 23:44:17 +0000 nancywalters 1271710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That topper is really cute.&nbsp; I'm tempted to buy one!&nbsp; I'm not sure where you're located and whether the graduation is indoors or outdoors, but either way, it could be very warm and I think you'd be very comfortable with that topper versus a blazer or sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271645 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 22:16:27 +0000 Anonymous 1271645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>there are so many styles that work as toppers for a sheath.&nbsp; My favorites (besides a denim or leather&nbsp;jacket)&nbsp;are kimono style jackets and a lace bomber jacket.&nbsp; if you go with black with the black dress, you might try a different texture from the dress.&nbsp; the lace would do that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271638 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 22:08:56 +0000 Sal 1271638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear a the following over sheath styles</p> <p>Blazer<br /> Sequinned cardigan, probably not the most on trend but still a good option<br /> Black crop jacket</p> <p>I also have a kimono that could work, but not with any of my current sheaths! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271624 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 21:55:55 +0000 Suz 1271624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glory, I like the lacey one (potentially) but it wouldn't be much help against air conditioning, if that is an issue.&nbsp;</p> <p>For casual, I always wear a cropped denim jacket with my sheath dresses. But that won't help for the graduation.&nbsp;</p> <p>For dressier events, I have a kimono jacket (bought on consignment) or I wear a short blazer (when I have such a thing, which is not always.) Sometimes I just wear my longer blazer and try to own the look.&nbsp;</p> <p>Do you still have the kimono from Zara? That might look good over a black sheath! And it covers a multitude of sins -- a nice bonus.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271619 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 21:51:43 +0000 Aida 1271619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For a dressier events&nbsp;I wear a cropped blazer or a silky black cocoon over my sheath, though I don't wear it often; I've been thinking about picking up a cropped sequin bomber or something as well. For more casual events I wear a cropped&nbsp;blazer, cropped moto (denim for summer), or cropped denim jacket. I like the shrug you linked, it looks great for hot weather too.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271239 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 15:05:29 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1271239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes that shrug is perfect! Congrats on the graduation! My DS graduates next Thursday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271235 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 15:00:29 +0000 ClaraT 1271235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear a shrug with my sheath dress. Sally at Already Pretty recently did a round up of 'dress-length ' (shorter length) sweaters that you might find helpful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271232 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 14:56:48 +0000 T 1271232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The lace shrug looks good. I guess even a sleeveless vest would be good. I personally don't like cardigans as much so I would rate them as the last option.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271229 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 14:55:01 +0000 Diana 1271229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like a blazer with a sheath. Go for a less classic one (fun color or print, or cropped, or no buttons) if you want to appear less corporate.<br /> Eta: I like the shrug too provided it hits at a cropped point on you. On me most store bought shrugs are too long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271218 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 14:39:13 +0000 Angie 1271218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the lace shrug. Thumbs up.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271215 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 14:35:08 +0000 Glory 1271215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry for bumping my own post. Wondering whether I should go with a white lace style cardigan or shrug?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/topper-for-sheath-dress#post-1271171 Fri, 06 Jun 2014 14:05:38 +0000 Glory 1271171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have 2 sheath dresses which are I consider my going out capsule for many events. For colder winter months I have 2 leather toppers which work so well. For warmer summer months I do not have a topper at all.<br />One dress is a simple black sheath, the other a print black/white sheath.<br />My sons grad is coming up soon and I do need to have something.<br />Do you wise ladies have any suggestions for me?<br />It doesn't have to be super fancy but I don't want to look like I am trying too hard or frumpy.&nbsp;<br />Do you think this type of shrug might be good? I am in Canada so am limited to what I can order in this neck of the woods.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.thebay.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/en/thebay/leopard-knit-shrug">http://www.thebay.com/webapp/w.....knit-shrug</a></p>
