Knowing that your (and all the other lovely ladies) trained eye approve an outfit gives an extra shine to it :-)<br /> Jayne and I live quite far apart, but a Norwegian YLF meeting sounds great! </p> <p>Beth Ann: Your comment is so nice and I learn more step by step. I hope for warmer weather and that the dress will get a lot of wear quite soon. It is polyester so I don't think it will work in really, really hot weather, but that's quite rare around here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-591166 Mon, 09 Apr 2012 00:02:11 +0000 Beth Ann 591166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this dress! It will be very versatile when weather turns warmer, too! I think I like it best in #1 and #2. I agree with Christianne that your own personal style is coming through here -- so fresh -- feminine, but strong! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-591141 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 23:16:19 +0000 Angie 591141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER frock! I love #1 and #5. </p> <p>You should meet up with YLF Jayne seeing as you are both in Norway!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-591119 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 22:35:55 +0000 harmonica 591119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much Clearlyclear! Your comment really made me happy I forgot to mention but I wear a black dress under the floral one because it is transparent and I avoid "clinginess". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-591116 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 22:30:14 +0000 Anonymous 591116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! I love that dress on you. I've been seeing a lot of florals on black backgrounds and I think it's the perfect way to bridge winter with spring. I love the rugged cognac belt with it too. I'm clueless about boots, so I will defer to the others on that. You have a way with juxtaposition that is QUITE impressive. Good job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-591113 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 22:23:08 +0000 harmonica 591113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for inspiring comments! You are all so nice and helpful </p> <p>I'll try a darker / cropped cardi, but I don't think I have a cropped jacket. I'll also try a white sleeve under. I never thought of that myself, Jayne! </p> <p>I wasn't sure about the last pair of shoes, so it's really good to get your honest and trained eyes to help me I am actually on the fence with the shoes, but hold on to them because I don't have any replacement. I actually don't remember in what situations I wear them... *have to figure that out*</p> <p>I'm glad you can see my style coming through, cristianne, because I'm working on that. I find it difficult because there are so many georgeous looks, and sometimes I think that I really want to copy that, but it might turn out wrong because I just copied, and not added myself to it. Difficult task finding your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-590971 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 17:23:52 +0000 Sunita 590971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice dress...I like it best with the cardis and tall boots. I also prefer it with a bow.</p> <p>Beautiful way to beat the snowy day blues.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-590952 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 16:50:04 +0000 Scarlet 590952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE THAT DRESS! I like the combo in 2 best, but I think it would look really great with a slightly cropped black jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-590945 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 16:43:13 +0000 christieanne 590945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pretty dress! I can see your personal style coming through in the styling. I would also think a black or dark cardi might be best if you have one. I think the jacket is too much bulk also.<br /> Tights and shoes - the last boots certainly bring a toughness to the look but maybe too much? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-590928 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 16:00:42 +0000 Makrame 590928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful dress and great boots (not sure about the last set of shoes). I kind of like it with the toppers (gives it a different look with the sleeves "tamed" a bit). To my eye, black color works best in a topper for this dress but the blazer in #3 seems a bit bulky. I think I would like to see a cardigan in a darker color, perhaps? #2 looks pretty good but I feel like a different color cardigan would be better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-590926 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 15:56:29 +0000 jayne 590926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you styled it best in #1. It didn't work too well for me with any of these coverups. If cold on arms maybe a longer white sleeve under?</p> <p>Anyway, the black boots worked great (see me avoiding question on the other ones...)</p> <p>:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-590922 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 15:37:37 +0000 morethanbeige 590922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This dress has a beautiful shape and fits you so well. Pretty colors. Love the layering. I like it with and without the bow. When not bowing, I would also love to see a loose knot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-flower-power-vs-queen-snow---with-questions#post-590887 Sun, 08 Apr 2012 14:51:05 +0000 harmonica 590887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's all winter here - snow is layering everywhere and it really looks like Christmas (without decorations :-)). I decided to beat Queen Snow with some flower power and much needed colour. Does it work?</p> <p>I just had to add different layers when doing the photos, so please excuse me for overloading with the same theme. Anyway, I prefer the dress with no bow because that is less expected, though added pic with bow. I'm not sure what looks best.</p> <p>Floral dress (less than $10 :-))<br /> Vintage brown belt<br /> Wedged fleece lined boots</p> <p>#2 + grey cardi<br /> #3 + black blazer<br /> # 4-6 + bow<br /> #7 close-up no bow<br /> #8 brown El Naturalista shoes (do they fit or is it a total misfit? One is folded down, the other is folded up - what is best?)</p> <p>Thanks for looking. All comments are welcome </p>
