That said I really love this dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280787 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 02:50:16 +0000 Day Vies 1280787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything about this dress. I also like that you chose brown sandals with this dress. They disappear on your leg and don't disrupt the leg line. Marking as a favorite -- well done Lyn! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280785 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 02:45:08 +0000 Mo 1280785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that dress. &nbsp;The print, silhouette, all of it. &nbsp;Yes, put in that slit, and get back to quick stepping! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280779 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 02:41:09 +0000 Karie 1280779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You do have the best dresses.

I hope your legs are feeling better.&nbsp;Does that dress have a walking slit? If not, you may want to add one. The dress looks great, though. It's a fun pattern.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280753 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 02:17:25 +0000 pil 1280753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great pattern and silhouette! Can you add a slit in the back if there isn't one already? When you say googly eyes, all I can think of is the Christopher Walken skit on SNL </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280729 Wed, 18 Jun 2014 02:03:17 +0000 lyn* 1280729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No time to walk slowly!!!

I love ModCloth stuff - they have a Longer Lengths section. Lately a lot of their dresses are too cutesy (even for me!) My most recent purchases I've attached.&nbsp;</p> <p>@ Angie/Ceit - I'm glad you like this style! I found out how to run stairs; gotta push those knees up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280440 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 20:08:12 +0000 Anonymous 1280440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this style on you too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280425 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 19:46:01 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1280425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous dress lyn - have we seen this one before? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280405 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 19:24:27 +0000 Angie 1280405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress. I love this style on you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280400 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 19:18:03 +0000 Alassë 1280400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hehe. It's a very Lyn* pattern (interesting/out of the ordinary), but I'm sorry the skirt caused your legs pain. I like my sheaths/pencils with a walking slit or stretch to avoid this.</p> <p>Random: You know about ModCloth, right? Most of their dresses are too short, but you can read the measurements on each dress and find some that are long enough. I think of you when I see all the prints. Lots of fit 'n' flares, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-617---a-dress-on-the-straight-and-kinda-narrow#post-1280381 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 18:42:42 +0000 lyn* 1280381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super big hurry today because someone (me) can't read a clock properly! RUN!</p> <p>I thought that after the discussion about fits and flares yesterday, I'd try something straighter today!</p> <p>Well, after hour one my shins are on fire. I usually can run in wedges for the subway but the shuffle in a straight skirt? Definitely leg muscles I have not used in a very long time!!</p> <p>I swapped to black patent pumps at work. One of my patients thought that the pattern looked like googly eyes. No comments so far on lack of flare from anyone. </p> <ul> <li><i>Earrings: Anthropologie&nbsp;</i></li> <li><i>Dress: Boden</i></li> <li><i>Belt: Eva Franco</i></li> <li><i>Sandals: Clarks</i></li> <li><i>Wristlet: Coach</i></li> </ul>
