I love the length and adore how it looks with the cropped jacket. It is funky and youthful and a little boho.<br /> The second dress is very nice too and I prefer it without a topper as I find the neck and arms quite flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736074 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 02:20:54 +0000 Jaime 1736074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love dresses like the first one - can you show us without the jacket. True it might be a bit trickier than the other two, which are slam dunks. Style on fire! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736058 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 01:47:02 +0000 Anonymous 1736058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote to keep both. I have been looking for a new sweater dress or two for a couple of years and still have not found one that works and is not black, grey, or tan/taupe. I'm at the place where I am willing to take a light grey dress if the right one comes along. Knit dresses don't seem to have longitivity due to stretching and pilling. Where did you find your navy dress? I like both dresses on you but prefer a high neckline on mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736053 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 01:19:39 +0000 Aquamarine 1736053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for keeping both. I guess I'm not really into capsules </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736051 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 01:12:06 +0000 Traci 1736051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that's what I'll do, JAileen. &nbsp;I'm curious to see if I'll come up with other ideas for the navy dress if it hangs around. &nbsp;I guess dresses are just less versatile by nature. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736045 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 01:03:40 +0000 JAileen 1736045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both of them. Why don't you make your capsule 31 items? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736019 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 00:37:03 +0000 Suz 1736019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look great on you but the second is more classic, the first more arty and avant garde. I think they each play a different role.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736018 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 00:35:09 +0000 Deborah 1736018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would put them both in your capsule. &nbsp;</p> <p>#1 is a killer dress in my humble opinion, but then it's a style I wear a lot. &nbsp;The length is perfect and any short on that one I think you then lose part of what is so special about it.</p> <p>#2 I like best without the jacket. &nbsp;A long drapey scarf tied once around with the longer lengths handing down at the front would look good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736017 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 00:34:21 +0000 carter 1736017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the second dress! I agree it seems much more versatile than the navy dress. If you only want one in the capsule, keep the new one.</p> <p>I hope you'll keep us posted! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736012 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 00:24:54 +0000 Tanya 1736012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dresses are very different and play different roles, but they both suit you and look good.&nbsp;&nbsp; The second one is simpler and thus probably easier to style in different ways and more suited for the capsule.&nbsp; I really like the outfit #3 with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1736011 Wed, 05 Oct 2016 00:19:22 +0000 El Cee 1736011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like both dresses Traci. Each of them has such a different look. Might you want <b>both</b> in your capsule? Knit dresses are so cozy and easy to wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1735993 Tue, 04 Oct 2016 23:34:31 +0000 Traci 1735993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I understand, BJ111. &nbsp;I actually washed and dried the navy dress, even though the tag says handwash only, in hopes the hem would shrink up. &nbsp;I think it would be more flattering if it were shorter, but I'm okay with JFE too. &nbsp;I prefer the vneck on the shorter dress as well. &nbsp;The fabric is better on the longer dress, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1735990 Tue, 04 Oct 2016 23:29:50 +0000 bj1111 1735990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the fitted dress better but I really like the first dress in concept. My eye needs to adjust. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw--knit-dresses#post-1735982 Tue, 04 Oct 2016 22:53:05 +0000 Traci 1735982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going on a spending freeze for a little while. I'm also limiting myself to a capsule of 30something items I pulled together. I may try to keep the freeze in effect until Christmas, but start bringing new items from the reserves of my closet after a month of strict capsule.</p> <p>Ironically, today was my first "official" day thst I decided to freeze the wardrobe and a couple of items came in the mail. One is a pair of black leather loafers that I had planned into the capsule. The second was a knit dress.</p> <p>I started the day in my navy knit dress from the capsule. I started questioning if it is versatile enough to earn a spot. </p> <p>When the new dress and loafers came I changed into them and switched jackets.</p> <p>I'm debating swapping the new dress into the capsule and pulling out the navy dress. It's really all just semantics since I don't have a hard fast number associated with my capsule anyway. I am paying attention to what I don't really wear from the grouping.</p> <p>Friday-Sunday we are going to a family camp. I freaked for a minute thinking I'd already have to abandon my capsule to work for camp, but then I started thinking of capsule outfits and realized I'll be fine since my capsule isn't dressy. </p>
