Very serenely elegant with the blue and white. Dress is so pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1672145 Fri, 03 Jun 2016 11:12:51 +0000 Staysfit 1672145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all these wonderful ideas! </p> <p>JAileen, I never would have thought to put a denim top under this blouse. Great thinking! </p> <p>Unfrumped, I have another patterned skirt with similar colors and I thought it might work. I am going to try it. </p> <p>Suz, I have to agree that the eyelet pattern allows this blouse to dress down for a casual beach day. I love that idea because we often go to a beach at a local park and then out for brunch at a diner on the WE in the summers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671542 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 15:39:44 +0000 Anonymous 1671542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I rather like it. I think just losing the necklace as Angie suggests, will pare it down nicely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671529 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 15:22:51 +0000 unfrumped 1671529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the necklines fight a bit, though it's not a deal-breaker.<br />What I would say is that the top looks fantastic belted , and what you are in effect getting is the pencil skirt look with good color combination, so , &nbsp;so if you have some other&nbsp;skirts you might play with, see if you find something that gives the same effect but no neckline issues. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671473 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 14:15:58 +0000 JAileen 1671473@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The tunic has a pattern and the dress has a pattern and they kind of compete IMO. I really want to see the whole dress. It's really pretty. I like the pink accessories with the dress. The tunic might look nice with jeans and a denim colored top underneath, making a column of color, with color peeking out through the holes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671435 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 13:04:46 +0000 RobinF 1671435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a little torn about this actually. I like it but I can also see what the others are saying about the neckline. I do really like how the pink belt and shoes tie it all together. And love some of these other suggestions for ways to wear it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671424 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 12:45:58 +0000 Suz 1671424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you are coming up with new styling ideas because it's a really pretty top.&nbsp;</p> <p>I can also see it as a sort of post-beach type garment. You know...you throw it on with a pair of linen shorts and a tank underneath after a day in the sun.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671340 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 09:51:00 +0000 Ledonna N. 1671340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No tank and belted looks fresh. Wow do they still say fresh? It looks really nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671322 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 08:54:02 +0000 Staysfit 1671322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I didn't think of belting the tunic with jeans, great idea. I really like the idea of wearing it that way with a pencil skirt. I typically wear this tunic unbelted with a white scoop neck tank top underneath, but it's time to change it up! :-)</p> <p>I agree about removing the necklace, not a great choice. </p> <p>UmmLila, I have paired this dress with both my white blazer and my white jean jacket. In fact, I get a lot of wear out of this dress. It's one of my favorites and it's usually easy to mix and match with other items in my closet. The same is true of this pink belt. It's funny how I can never predict what item is going to become a wardrobe workhorse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671258 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 04:40:06 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1671258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a creative solution, and I like the look. I like Angie's idea of removing the necklace. <br />I also like a dress worn as a skirt--i.e.,without the top part of the dress showing. It's something I rarely think to do, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671176 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 02:25:00 +0000 Brooklyn 1671176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the idea but I think it would look a little cleaner with a different neckline underneath the tunic. Scooped neckline for instance. Or a pencil skirt and cami. The colour combination is perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671168 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 02:16:47 +0000 Angie 1671168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Btw, have you tried wearing the tunic belted over a pencil skirt or pair of jeans?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671165 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 02:14:41 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1671165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I would have preferred the dress with a white jacket.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671164 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 02:14:38 +0000 Angie 1671164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Remove the necklace and we are in business. Nicely done.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671161 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 02:09:44 +0000 Staysfit 1671161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isabel, thanks for the nice suggestions. I see how the necklines are different. I tried the blouse with cropped straight leg jeans but didn't like it. I wonderif I need to shorten my crops to make them work with this top. I am going to try folding them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671157 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 02:02:55 +0000 Anonymous 1671157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure the necklines combine well and the overlaying tunic seems more delicate than the underlaying dress, I prefer the reverse.<br />It's a pretty top and it looks pretty on you. Maybe cropped jeans and a longish necklace to add some skin and some vertical interest?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-tunic-over-dress-do-or-dont#post-1671149 Thu, 02 Jun 2016 01:50:16 +0000 Staysfit 1671149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm having a hard time with this tunic top. I am not liking it with jeans anymore. It seems too stiff. I don't wear trousers. I was a bit cold this morning and inspiration hit. I grabbed my pink belt and shoes and wore it open over my dress. I'm hoping it softened the look and added some interesting texture in the process. Does this work? How can I improve it? (Too late if it's a disastrous look because I wore it to work and to my DS's senior concert tonight!). Is it Serenely Elegant? </p>
