Big thumbs up for the dress and the way you've accessorised ☺<br /> Riva is sooooooo adorable! xoxo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-blackin-a-summer-dress#post-1554542 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 05:02:43 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1554542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look very chic in your little black dress, Michelle. I think the length is fine. I do think the longer sides make a difference here. It's a more sophisticated look than if the whole dress were its shortest length all around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-blackin-a-summer-dress#post-1554476 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 02:12:38 +0000 Maneera 1554476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you look really great Michelle. No need to feel self conscious anymore...you look really lovely in short Jersey dresses. And aren't they the most comfortable thing ever? I have 5 myself, and I love them because it feels like you're wearing nothing but a long tshirt. </p> <p>And here is something extra to feel good about - jersey short dresses work best when they are blacks, navy or other dark colours. They're visually slimming on us girls with curves, they resist sweat stains, and they look more 'polished' than lighter colours in the same fabric. </p> <p>I love you in this dress. Wear it over the weekend too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-blackin-a-summer-dress#post-1554470 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 02:06:58 +0000 Angie 1554470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY. You look great, Michelle. Breezy, hip and comfortable. Excellent with the gold accents.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm jealous of Suz and you meeting. Take me with you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-blackin-a-summer-dress#post-1554443 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 01:06:57 +0000 Suz 1554443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay!!!! Looking forward to this, Michelle.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-blackin-a-summer-dress#post-1554437 Thu, 10 Sep 2015 00:53:45 +0000 Peri 1554437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks great!

Perfect for this crazy end of summer heat wave. And Riva's your perfect accessory.&nbsp;</p> <p>Congratulations on the weight loss!&nbsp;</p> <p>Will you be able to meet up on Saturday? Would be lovely to hug you. But if not -- another time. I will be back in Toronto regularly as usual and can arrange.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-back-to-blackin-a-summer-dress#post-1554345 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 22:35:21 +0000 Michelle 1554345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all, </p> <p>When I first saw Angie's post about the black summer dress, I sort of dismissed it as an option for my own wardrobe. I wear very little black in the summer, often feel self-conscious in short frocks, and felt I had enough dresses already. But that was before I found an old tunic in my closet, tried it on, and realized that with my weight loss it fit...like a shorter black dress. <br />I love the handkerchief hem and the keyhole neckline. And the material is the softest jersey you've ever seen. So I decided to be bold and wear it to work despite my slight phobia that the front/back lacked length that the side handkerchief points couldn't compensate for. My workmates thought I was nuts to be worried about this, but you guys carry more weight. :)<br />I kept the outfit very spare and simple. Gold accessories and that's it (Abby sandals, long earrings, rose gold bag). Revie matched the dress for that touch of additional harmony. <br />Do you think I should wear this item this way, or am I off the mark with the combo?</p>
