A perfect look for a casual JHB Summer. An 11 out of 10! Great to see your legs :)</p> <p>I also love you in that floral frock! It's fresh, romantic and pretty. </p> <p>You need a shorter, tighter and cheekier denim jacket though. Liking you in faded denim! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frocking-it#post-827398 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 14:27:52 +0000 Transcona Shannon 827398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The black dress is fab on you - lovely fit and shape and I think you've accessorized it beautifully. I also really like the floral dress on you but wonder if the denim jacket is maybe a bit too long to wear with dresses? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frocking-it#post-827393 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 14:23:24 +0000 Sara L. 827393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both dresses! The beads and red shoes are really great with the black dress. The denim jacket looks good with the floral dress but I know what you mean about not wearing the jacket all day. In the summer I have that problem too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frocking-it#post-827291 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 09:42:48 +0000 rute 827291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>you look amazing in dresses! These have to be my favorite looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frocking-it#post-827286 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 09:00:15 +0000 goldenpig 827286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the black dress with red shoes! And the floral dress with denim jacket is great too...the shoes look great with it. I agree with Deborah, a shorter cropped denim jacket would accentuate your lovely waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frocking-it#post-827283 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 08:29:53 +0000 Deborah 827283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the black dress and how you styled it! I'm going to have to copy this:). The floral dress is pretty and I agree the denim jacket adds that little something. I am wondering if a more cropped to the waist denim jacket might just work a bit better and create a lovely shaped silhouette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frocking-it#post-827270 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 07:04:20 +0000 Katiepea 827270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think both of these outfits look great! I love the pop of red in the shoes with the black dress - I think it lifts the entire outfit. I like the floral dress as well and think the jacket gives it a great extra touch of style. Like Asingh, I can't see the difference in fabric in the pictures here. The fact that it isn't standing out, tends to make me feel like it isn't a biggie. You can always put a pair of "neutral" shoes onto your future shopping list if it really bothers you! (I personally find it useful to identify "holes" like this in my wardrobe, so that when I go shopping, I do so sensibly, without getting carried away...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frocking-it#post-827266 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 06:32:56 +0000 Asingh 827266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how you've paired the black dress with the deep red shoes and beads. Chic!<br /> And the floral dress with the denim jacket reminds me of spring. Also, I cannot make out the difference between the floral pattern on the shoes and the dress. In fact, I thought the shoes were neutrals! Great outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frocking-it#post-827260 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 06:12:48 +0000 lyn* 827260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your "frocking" black dress - I think the long necklace and the open toed shoes (gorgeous, by the way) read more casual of a vibe, and I think this is what you're going for at your workplace? If so, I really like it :)</p> <p>To be honest, I didn't notice the floral pattern difference on your shoes and on your dress until you mentioned it! I don't think it matters - the ones on your footwear are neutral in colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-frocking-it#post-827258 Thu, 24 Jan 2013 06:07:05 +0000 Hil 827258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I suddenly have a couple of dresses in my wardrobe... I never had any dresses for ages. As it happens I've worn two in a row now. Might have something to do with having shaved my legs yesterday :)</p> <p>So the black dress - I wasn't terribly excited by this. Somehow it just feels too dressy for my job - maybe because it is black. The strap on the black wedges I wanted to wear broke, so I went with the red ones. </p> <p>Today is a scorcher, so I decided on the cotton frock. I don't love the dress on its own - the whole outfit feels a little frou frou, but I do like it with the denim jacket. Only problem is i know I won't keep the jacket on for long. </p> <p>A question : there is a floral pattern on the bows my shoes and a different pattern on my dress. Is this of any consequence, good or bad? </p> <p>Thanks as always, </p> <p>Hil x </p>
