I really think the pattern on the pants is fun....and how about snipping them off for a great and very current pair of culottes?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bought-on-hottest-day-in-8-years#post-1420069 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 03:22:22 +0000 Kristin L 1420069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the pants. They look like they'll be great for hot weather. And the color of your dress is very flattering. I hope y'all can stay cool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bought-on-hottest-day-in-8-years#post-1420064 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 03:14:48 +0000 Dimity 1420064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pants are really cute. Given that you probably can't make them longer, a few centimetres shorter would emphasise your ankles more. The dress looks lovely and flowy for hot weather and it's better to duplicate a winner than go for something different that isn't as good, so it's a good move. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bought-on-hottest-day-in-8-years#post-1420032 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 02:03:09 +0000 Angie 1420032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pattern on the pants is great, Anne. I also like the width and volume.&nbsp;&nbsp;I personally would like to see them shorter or longer. You know how sticky I am about pant lengths. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bought-on-hottest-day-in-8-years#post-1420028 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 01:49:42 +0000 anne 1420028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachylou - thanks!! &nbsp;<i></i>I don't think I could give up more stuctured styles entirely, but this is what I need in this weather!!<br />Any comments on the pants? I have to admit that I did not do a normal PPP process with these - in fact I asked DD to pick the nicest pattern in the shop that sold the dress as they had a second item half price deal (and we were all tired of walking around the mall at this point, even with the air conditioning as an advantage.<br />If they are as bad as I suspect they are I'll just wear them at home. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bought-on-hottest-day-in-8-years#post-1420021 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 01:32:59 +0000 rachylou 1420021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is FANTASTIC, Anne. You do this kind of avant, unstructured garment so well. I think you should give yourself over to this style with complete abandon. Lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bought-on-hottest-day-in-8-years#post-1420013 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 01:23:38 +0000 anne 1420013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Louise - thanks = I am a few thousand kilometres away so in no danger myself. I have just checked that Caro is posting (she lives there) and I am presuming she is ok.<br />Angie - thanks. The funny thing about this dress is that apart from the little gathers on the side seams it is EXACTLY the same design as the orange dress I bought last year. I have seen them in other shops too. I virtually just duplicated. At least it wasn't empire waist, which I have been sick of since I joined YLF and STILL is the main style for sundresses here in Aus</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bought-on-hottest-day-in-8-years#post-1419076 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 15:48:21 +0000 Louise 1419076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look cool and comfy for the heat. I've been following the Adelaide bush fires on the news I hope they're not affecting you?

Nice one.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bought-on-hottest-day-in-8-years#post-1419052 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 15:01:33 +0000 anne 1419052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I mentioned the heat in my off topic thread. We escaped at the mall for a few hours and I bought some loose trousers which I wore today,&nbsp;but only in air con, and this dress. </p>
