I'm not sure it looks great on me, but hopefully people will be looking at the hemline! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-for-the-black-and-white-ball#post-1366533 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 21:33:34 +0000 Echo 1366533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I very much like the dress, and would have purchased it myself (and I am NOT 20 YO!), except I am long-waisted so it flares in the wrong spot. I think it would be great both for dressing up and for casual, depending on the accessories.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-for-the-black-and-white-ball#post-1366527 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 21:26:53 +0000 JAileen 1366527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In 2 1/2 weeks. That's why I decided I needed a Plan B. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-for-the-black-and-white-ball#post-1366473 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 20:27:02 +0000 catgirl 1366473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When is your event? Mine took a couple of weeks to arrive... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-for-the-black-and-white-ball#post-1366426 Tue, 30 Sep 2014 19:15:46 +0000 JAileen 1366426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need a black and/or white dressy outfit for an upcoming event, a "ball". It is a fund raiser for an organization that helps AIDS patients. In the past I've found interesting outfits at thrift stores. I'm usually one of the more conventionally dressed people there. </p> <p>I was intrigued by Una's tulle skirt and I went ahead and ordered it ($13 including shipping!). But I needed a Plan B in case it doesn't get here in time.</p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fun-uwp-goes-to-a-ball" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-to-a-ball</a></p> <p>Then I saw Rabbit's post on Elie Tahari at Kohl's. Even though she didn't generally like the quality of the fabric, I was intrigued by the graphic prints.</p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/elie-tahari-for-kohls" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-for-kohls</a></p> <p>The store didn't have a great selection, but they did have the skyline dress and the taxi top, both of which I bought. The SA said she wanted to get the dress. She's 20 YO, so maybe the dress is too young for me? The dress isn't inherently dressy, but I think it's fun and fits the criteria (black and white). It looks OK on me. The top is a fun print also, and I need interesting tops. Right now I have tees and sweaters, and nothing else. </p>
