REALLY awesome fun dress on you Anne! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928301 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 17:42:17 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1928301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks amazing on you, Anne! I love it! It's great styled the way you are showing it in the photo of the one you bought. Good choice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928230 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 13:47:11 +0000 Angie 1928230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER STUNNING. </p> <p>LOVE, and you bought the right size,<b> Anne</b>. The smaller size is too snug. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928209 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 13:22:12 +0000 Bijou 1928209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great dress on you and the size you bought looks perfect. So fun to pick up a wildcard in the sales. I can see this being a great dress for most of the year, as it will look great with open toed booties in summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928181 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 10:52:00 +0000 Kathie 1928181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad you got this! And what a difference the sizing makes! All three fit, in some way, but the middle/eyes closed one is clearly perfect on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928137 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 07:00:16 +0000 Gigi 1928137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun! I think it's great that you're listening to your emotions and trying something outside the box.</p> <p>I like the size that you got. It's still nicely shaped but not tight, which I think works with the vibe you're trying to go for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928103 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 03:40:07 +0000 Beth Ann 1928103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it, Anne!&nbsp; It's is a bold style, but still a familiar plaid.&nbsp; That makes is seem as an unexpected take on a iconic look.&nbsp; I think the fit should be fluid. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928101 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 03:25:33 +0000 anne 1928101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Lyn, BJ, Rachylou, Becky, Jenni and Lucy. </p> <p>Jenni, I  can imagine! I was an uni in the early 90's but the nearest I got to grunge was wearing a black top and tights under my summer dresses. When I was first married though (late 90s), we did listen to lots of Nirvana as DH only had about 4 CD's (that and U2)</p> <p>I did try on a size smaller again in the shop, which I'll put up for comparison. It didn't give me much ease around the thighs or shoulders. (typical for me!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928099 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 03:24:23 +0000 Lucy 1928099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look SUPER cute! Way to go on a wild card.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928098 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 03:18:10 +0000 Jenni NZ 1928098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anne I totally missed out on grunge. First baby born in 1991 and head barely up by the end of that decade. It has an updated slight punk look to me. Not your usual but have fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1928089 Wed, 13 Jun 2018 02:16:47 +0000 rachylou 1928089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey! Where is my post saying how much I love this? Swear I made one. Oh well! This is so cool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927935 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 15:35:49 +0000 Katerina 1927935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927932 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 15:31:11 +0000 3style 1927932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sizing down made the twist in the middle sit on your waist rather than your hips, and it makes a world of difference. Awesome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927910 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 14:30:13 +0000 Becky 1927910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think sizing down was the right choice. It is still fluid but doesn't overwhelm. I like it with the black tights (?) and boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927887 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 13:37:53 +0000 anne 1927887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok folks. I bought this one. Its a size smaller than yesterday's but I think retains fluidity. Please excuse closed eyes and fuzziness. dd took heaps of photos and my eyes were closed in every one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927872 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 12:51:30 +0000 lyn67 1927872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very different fab. dress, nr 1 is perfect fit, don't you dare take in-as that will take off the edgy!:-( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927721 Tue, 12 Jun 2018 00:02:29 +0000 anne 1927721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have the advantage here of having met me, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927712 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 23:46:32 +0000 bj1111 1927712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s a lot of dress but I think you can pull it off!</p> <p>I like it with pants or leggings underneath. Very cool and trendy and sophisticated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927707 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 23:42:21 +0000 anne 1927707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy - good question&nbsp; - I think I would be able to layer under for warmth. I do wish the sleeves were longer though - I find 3/4 sleeves difficult for layering.&nbsp; I wonder if a black long sleeve tee worn under would be ok. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927695 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 23:07:06 +0000 anne 1927695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I haven't actually bought it. That'll be the first hurdle. I unexpectedly went shopping yesterday lunchtime instead of going to the gym and I didn't have any vouchers with me.<br /> But Angie's approval is a strong inducement!<br /> Tobin and Sal I hear you on overwhelming! And I have doubts about the length too 3style This is different for me for sure. Sal I think I would wear it mist for casual Friday.<br /> Bj I feel like it is a nod to the 90s.more grungy than I actually was back then too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927690 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 22:53:48 +0000 Sal 1927690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok I will be the spanner - I am not sure.&nbsp; I do find it a little overwhelming and while I like it I think it does need careful styling.&nbsp; I would like it with tall boots - or Mary Janes and fishnets to take it in a retro direction.</p> <p>However a wildcard experiment at a good price can be a lot of fun.</p> <p>Would you wear it for work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927684 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 22:44:49 +0000 Becky 1927684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've gotten the green light from Angie. Now let's see it styled! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927661 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 22:03:12 +0000 bj1111 1927661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute. Making the 90s trend really current </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927648 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 21:07:50 +0000 3style 1927648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’d prefer it shorter rather than tighter. Just below your knee. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/weird-shadow-style-possibility#post-1927647 Mon, 11 Jun 2018 21:04:37 +0000 Amy Isabella 1927647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From what I can see, I think that it looks great as it is! </p>
