I feel like you need something that hits loosely at the hips for this, and many of these feel too long. May just be me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370444 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 14:16:48 +0000 texstyle 1370444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is my favorite - I think I like how the vest style balances all the floral. I also like #3 - again I think the balance of styles is why, but both of these are also very figure flattering where the others are good too, they sort of hide you more. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370411 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 13:29:30 +0000 Sara L. 1370411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them all except #2 which seems too long and messes up the proportions.&nbsp; The others all look good and would give lots of options depending on your mood. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370390 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 12:25:44 +0000 Robidi 1370390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress! &nbsp;And the toppers are fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370381 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 12:02:42 +0000 Anonymous 1370381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this dress on you!!!! &nbsp;I love all of the pictures, except number 6. &nbsp;The sweater color did not speak to me and seemed wrong. &nbsp;There is no good reason why it shouldn't have worked. &nbsp;Perhaps I just love black toppers more? &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370371 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 11:28:12 +0000 unfrumped 1370371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the vest is great-- and the sleeker toppers, not too long. They all can work but some proportions will look best. Fantastic dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370293 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 04:04:11 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1370293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all great, in my book. You are on a roll! I'm not crazy about the color of 5, as you point out, but I do like the shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370264 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 03:21:18 +0000 Zibbets 1370264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These all seem to work. I like #4 best and #3 least.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370261 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 03:16:28 +0000 jackiec 1370261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you can really work this dress with everything. I'm just getting a little thrown off by the shoes. Want to see the booties again.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370231 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 02:49:36 +0000 Jaime 1370231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is my favorite. The jackets are great too but need the black boots you would wear with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370226 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 02:45:49 +0000 shiny 1370226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm surprised at how much I like 5 &amp; 6 on you. Softer colors, not what I usually associate with your more high contrast&nbsp;style. Not sure why you say #5 is not a good color on you? I wish I could pull that color off -- it's soft yet sophisticated neutral, IMO. But the green (both 6 &amp; 3) is a gorgeous color on you.</p> <p>Of the other three (black) I prefer 4 but I like them all just as well, for different occasions and moods.</p> <p>I guess the black is more expected (matchy?), so I suppose I am having a slightly&nbsp;stronger preference for the non-black options. Matchy is in now though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370212 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 02:27:27 +0000 Dixie 1370212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think #1 vest is a great way to layer the dress without hiding its shape. #4 jacket also creates a great line. I don't like how the others toppers add more volume to it and hide both your shape and the dress. But that's my opinion! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370209 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 02:25:02 +0000 thimblelina 1370209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it with the black blazer #4. Simpler seems better with all that floral. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370180 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 01:45:27 +0000 catgirl 1370180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is body con - would not wear it alone or with something under. It's almost like a layering shirt in dress form. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370177 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 01:41:41 +0000 merwoman 1370177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous dress! All the black toppers and green sweater look great with it.<br />Is it body con? I saw an ad (BR?) suggesting to wear a BD shirt under a dress. Would depend on the fabric.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370167 Mon, 06 Oct 2014 01:23:36 +0000 Elly 1370167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it with the blazer and killer booties! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370086 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 22:40:42 +0000 catgirl 1370086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lynne, you are right - these need to be pictured with boots and booties! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370083 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 22:36:10 +0000 Lynne 1370083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them all, Una, and I can see that they'll all read differently depending on your footwear.&nbsp; Great find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370068 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 22:20:43 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1370068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it with the shorter jacket (and the moto from yesterday) best. That dress was a great find for you. Maybe you can wear it to your (high school? college?) reunion, too. I'd probably go with the pants for Boston, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370043 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 21:51:20 +0000 Anonymous 1370043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful dress! The only one I don't care for is the color of 5, but you knew that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-some-looks-with-the-f21-dress#post-1370038 Sun, 05 Oct 2014 21:42:35 +0000 catgirl 1370038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a lot of toppers and not so many things to wear under them.&nbsp; The topper over dress has been a great winter formula.&nbsp; With that in mind, here are some attempts with the F21 floral dress.</p> <p>1.&nbsp; Caslon drapey vest</p> <p>2. Drapey jacket</p> <p>3.&nbsp; Green cashmere hoodie</p> <p>4.&nbsp; Theory jacket</p> <p>5.&nbsp; Fleece-lined sweatshirt cardi (thrifted) - not a good color, but I like the shape</p> <p>6. Green drapey sweater from Target</p> <p>I have LOTS of other long cardis, blazers, sweaters and a vest that would work over this dress.&nbsp; And all of these looks could go to work.&nbsp; </p> <p>Honest feedback... thanks!</p>
