Thanks for the advice. I’m assuming it will be warm inside, so I think I’ll follow your advice!! </p> <p>And I stole the picture from LOFT’s website... I wish that was me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/winter-dress-woes#post-2002658 Thu, 14 Feb 2019 22:32:08 +0000 Molly Mac 2002658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Something to think about if you are breastfeeding. I went to my SILs wedding when I was about six months post partum. I wore a dress that I loved and felt good in. I did not anticipate that I would need to pump when I picked out the dress. It was NOT breastfeeding friendly. Twice, I had to take the whole dress off and pump in a bathroom stall. I laugh about it now, but at the time it was awkward. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/winter-dress-woes#post-2002643 Thu, 14 Feb 2019 22:17:38 +0000 Anonymous 2002643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also agree with Gretchen. Have a good time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/winter-dress-woes#post-2002640 Thu, 14 Feb 2019 22:13:47 +0000 Janet 2002640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Gretchen — venues are typically heated plenty enough this time of year. Just wear a good warm coat on the way there. I’d go with sheer black hose and black pumps or sheer nude hose and metallic footwear? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/winter-dress-woes#post-2002636 Thu, 14 Feb 2019 22:11:28 +0000 Carla 2002636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You never know what the temps will be at those things, but often it can get quite warm. At 4 weeks after B-day I would suggest you shop your closet for something you are already comfortable with - and do as Gretchen suggests and carry your shoes to the venu. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/winter-dress-woes#post-2002629 Thu, 14 Feb 2019 22:06:06 +0000 Angie 2002629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW. You had a baby for weeks ago. I'm impressed.</p> <p>Gorgeous dress. I echo <b>Gretchen.</b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/winter-dress-woes#post-2002628 Thu, 14 Feb 2019 22:04:16 +0000 Gretchen 2002628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this dress, and bet you will feel fantastic in it! (And I bet it will feel good to have an evening out - those first few weeks w baby are all consuming) </p> <p>I’m probably in the minority, but I would say dress for what you want to wear at the party, and then add layers for getting there and back. So...nude hose and kitten heels at the party, with a heavier coat and boots while in transit? Check the boots along with your coat and wear your nice shoes for the event. </p> <p>You might also want a wrap to layer with in case the room is chilly - a nice pashmina in an accent color? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/winter-dress-woes#post-2002578 Thu, 14 Feb 2019 20:20:54 +0000 Anonymous 2002578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My first thought is, short sleeves in snow? Brrrrrr!<br /> Have anything long sleeve and velvet?<br /> In any case, sheer black or nude to you tights and metallic or otherwise dressy pumps (could be low heel). Warm topper-velvet blazer or faux fur. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/winter-dress-woes#post-2002574 Thu, 14 Feb 2019 20:12:44 +0000 Laura 2002574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Headed to my husband’s work party this weekend. It’s super cold, with a lot of snow here. The party is indoors though at a very nice hotel. Attire is listed as semi-formal.</p> <p>I’m planning on wearing this dress and wondering what to wear with it. Hose? Black tights? And what type of shoes? I had a baby 4 weeks ago, so I’m not really feeling like wearing too high of heels. </p> <p>Thanks! I have a hard time with winter dresses. </p>
