That dress would be fun also to wear with clams like in Angie's post last week.. have you tried that? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-395510 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 14:41:31 +0000 MsMary 395510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SO FAB!! I love you in color!</p> <p>I always twitch at the way people dress for performances, too, and I just keep repeating "at least they're here... at least they're here..." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-395500 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 14:30:28 +0000 Anonymous 395500@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's true that many people in Seattle underdress at many "dressier" places. It is like this in Portland, OR as well. I try not to be bugged about it too much, especially where the arts are concerned. It is important for people to get out and support the arts no matter what they are wearing. Hopefully, some of the casual folks will be inspired to return again, perhaps more stylishly once they see how others dress for the occasion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-395393 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 07:10:22 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 395393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-395325 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 03:17:02 +0000 Kari 395325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous, gorgeous dress. I love the neckline and sleeves on you. And wow, those shoes! They would be several notches above my own shoe height threshold, so even if they are borderline for you, that's still way better than the general populace.</p> <p>I'm glad that you were able to get great weather for your date at the opera, particularly so you could wear your pretty shoes. :)</p> <p>I've been curious about the opera. I've never seen Porgy &amp; Bess, but adore the music. Bummer about the over-casual attendees - I definitely think we tend to dress too far down for what should be special events sometimes in Seattle. At least you are upping the average style quotient by several notches! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-395281 Mon, 01 Aug 2011 02:14:22 +0000 annagybe 395281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Thanks everyone. I definitely have reached my threshold as far as shoe height. These are definitely sitting shoes, or either that I need more practice.<br /> It was a nice day in Seattle yesterday. But the opera attendees ranged from very nice downright tragic. I saw at least 3 Hawaiian shirts. One guy in standard worn t-shirt and jeans. There was one couple that took the cake, he was in a white polo shirt with plaid cargo shorts and sneakers, added bonus of him having his sunglasses backwards on the back of his neck. His date/SO was in olive capris and orange short sleeve cardigan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-394926 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 15:34:21 +0000 Scarlet 394926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this dress on you! Sounds like a lovely evening. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-394913 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 15:14:55 +0000 Angie 394913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>Your look is *definitely* softening, Anna. (I do realize that this is an older frock though). Really digging the longer wavy hair too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-394908 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 15:06:43 +0000 Ornella 394908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-394906 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 15:03:48 +0000 Heather 394906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anna, how was your evening?!

Anna, I really enjoy seeing you wearing more color now - I think it suits you beautifully.<br /> I also bend my knee before you for you amazing ability to wear such heels. I wish I could... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-394761 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 03:57:34 +0000 Debbie 394761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This would be a great date outfit.

I haven't been to the opera in years...my husband isn't a fan. However, I'm grooming my 5 year old early - heading to Aladdin at the 5th Ave tomorrow...maybe he'll be my opera date in a few years! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-394647 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 00:23:30 +0000 Suz 394647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look happy!

Have a great time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-730-evening-edition#post-394625 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 23:27:51 +0000 annagybe 394625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Going to the opera tonight. They're doing Porgy and Bess.<br /> Got this DVF dress about 2 years ago at Nordstrom. Was sold on it being a good date dress. Have yet to wear it on a date. It does make a good summer opera dress.<br /> If the shoes look familiar, they're the infamous Miu Miu sandal incident of a few months ago. I spotted them on a clearance rack at Nordstrom at 1/3 the original price, with encouragement from Jenava I got them recently. </p>
