I have a dress very similar to that (a light weight denim) that is sleeveless that I wear very similarly to how you have styled it -- with a Tee beneath or with a white denim jacket. I find it extremely versatile and comfortable. For me, it's a summer workhorse. You are so talented. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1718191 Wed, 24 Aug 2016 01:27:47 +0000 Jenn 1718191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know, this dress is almost the same shape as one of my eShakti dresses. I find it really versatile, but I've never tried it with a layer underneath! I like your pairing with the sneakers. You look youthful and energetic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1718009 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 19:16:21 +0000 Sara L. 1718009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks good on you.&nbsp; I especially like it with your white denim jacket in #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717731 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 11:28:58 +0000 anchie 1717731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute dress, I like it best with the jeans jacket.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717703 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 07:42:47 +0000 approprio 1717703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice dress! I can see this being very versatile in the transitional season, layered over, under and in between as you've done here.</p> <p>Have you tried wearing it open over skinny jeans and a tee as a sort of double denim lagenlook? That could be cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717678 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 05:12:10 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1717678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717622 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 02:03:35 +0000 Bonnie 1717622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would definitely wear this dress if I wore dresses. Denim is so versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717617 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 01:47:38 +0000 Jenava 1717617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Soooo cute. Just the right mix of feminine and sporty, with a nice texture from the denim for your signature sophistication. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717610 Tue, 23 Aug 2016 01:17:29 +0000 Karie 1717610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it best with the long sleeved tee and the jacket in #3 - the perfect all season dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717333 Mon, 22 Aug 2016 04:21:20 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1717333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maneera, you're right--it is up your alley, isn't it? Before YLF, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have worn sneakers with a dress.<br />Carla, good idea! The thought of bare arms on a non-hot day makes me shiver a little bit, but it wouldn't hurt to try, would it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717330 Mon, 22 Aug 2016 04:13:53 +0000 Sal 1717330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it, I love the fabric and the hem! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717328 Mon, 22 Aug 2016 04:00:30 +0000 Carla 1717328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about a short sleeved t-shirt under (coloured-red?) vs the long sleeved. Show some arm skin to match leg skin for a little balance? Love #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717327 Mon, 22 Aug 2016 03:58:27 +0000 Anonymous 1717327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So cute with the sneakers and white jean jacket.

My favorite of these stylings is with the white denim jacket--so cute! When the weather warms up again, can you post it without the shirt underneath? I'd love to see it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717251 Mon, 22 Aug 2016 00:01:32 +0000 Bonnie 1717251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute dress and I like the way you styled it. I think it would look good with a striped tee, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717242 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 23:17:20 +0000 Angie 1717242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are ADORABLE in #3. I could just eat you up, Sharan. But I like all the renditions here. Very fun.</p> <p>Good grief. Heat wave yesterday, and an Autumn day today. Crazy weather.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717192 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 19:49:26 +0000 Mirjana 1717192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is really very nice, love shirt-tail hem. My favorite is #3&nbsp;<br /> a fabulous casual look.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717165 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 17:59:42 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1717165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, El Cee, Cerinda, and Runs With Scissors! Yes, it's the Grainline Alder dress. This is my second attempt. The first one came out very cute, but too small across the shoulders, despite my measuring and planning. Oh, well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717164 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 17:52:30 +0000 Runs With Scissors 1717164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is the dress a Grainline Alder? &nbsp; It looks great in the lightweight denim, and clever to layer a long-sleeved shirt under. &nbsp;I have made several Alders (and even worn them in Winter) but never thought of that. &nbsp; Love it with the zippered sneaks, too. &nbsp;Great outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717160 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 17:44:46 +0000 Cerinda 1717160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cute dress. &nbsp;It looks like it affords you LOTS of styling options; Nice proportions with the jacket.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717159 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 17:43:10 +0000 El Cee 1717159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute dress! I especially love it worn with the sneakers and denim jacket in #3... a fabulous casual look. (I am in awe of your sewing skills.)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-another-blue-dress#post-1717157 Sun, 21 Aug 2016 17:37:22 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1717157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've made a third denim-y blue dress. This one is sleeveless, so again, I must be creative to find ways to wear the dress in environments where I need more arm coverage, since I get cold easily. (I love dresses, but I often find them hard to wear for this reason--I need a layer or a second layer on my arms to stay warm.)</p> <p>I finished the dress in the midst of a heat wave yesterday, and today it's cool enough that I am wearing it with a long-sleeved t-shirt underneath. Not optimal (it looks better sleeveless), but a compromise so I can wear it! <br />The jacket is for outdoors, or if A/C is freezing. </p> <p>The outfit (worn to work):<br />Light denim sleeveless shirtdress with 3/4 gathered skirt, shirt-tail hem (longer in the back) (made by me); ivory long sleeved tee (Caslon); navy sneakers (Paul Green); stone denim jacket (French Dressing Jeans); ivory and taupe bag (Fossil).</p> <p>Thanks for looking! I appreciate your thoughts and suggestions!</p> <p>&nbsp; </p>
