The proportions work well with the jacket, too.&nbsp; I love dresses like these because they can be accessorized many ways.&nbsp; Look forward to seeing it make a repeat performance!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-striped-dress#post-921168 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 22:15:53 +0000 Krista 921168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the dress, Shannon! I have the same jacket and I wear it at least once a week, twice if I can get away with it. It's perfect with everything.&nbsp; I just bought the fuchsia and the cobalt jackets because the sale&nbsp;this weekend was 30% off everything - I couldn't resist! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-striped-dress#post-921101 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 20:37:23 +0000 Angie 921101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Regal :).

In fact, you will probably get sick of seeing me in this dress as I plan on wearing the heck out of it until the end of fall!<br /><br />Thanks everybody. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-striped-dress#post-920828 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 15:21:44 +0000 rae 920828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Fits right into your outfit formulas without missing a beat.

I think this looks great. It will also look good with a denim jacket I think!</p> <p>The blazer is nice too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-new-striped-dress#post-920661 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 11:24:06 +0000 Transcona Shannon 920661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I bought this dress a few weeks ago at Cleo Petite and have been waiting for&nbsp;<i>real</i> spring to arrive in order to wear it. All the snow has finally melted from my yard and we hit +15 Celcius yesterday, so I guess it's time to wear it!<br /><br />This dress is a jersey knit black, cobalt and white stripe dress with an elastic waist, giving the dress a blouson effect. It is sleeveless but has wide enough shoulder straps to wear on its own comfortably. It has pleats at the rounded neckline and I really like the midi length. I've paired it with a knit black blazer with 3/4 length sleeves, also picked up at Cleo Petite a few weeks ago. I like to have a black blazer in my wardrobe at all times but needed a light weight knit for the warmer months.<br /><br />I removed the stretchy belt that came with the dress and have instead popped on my black leather belt with silver buckle. Nude hose and my black pointy toe kitten heel pumps round out the outfit. I've added pops of white with my watch and handbag.<br /><br />What do you think? Were the dress and jacket good spring/summer picks? I can see this dress also working with my white leather jacket, white denim jacket, blue denim jacket and various belts and shoes/sandals. As always, all comment/suggestions welcome.<br /><br />Dress &amp; jacket: Cleo Petite<br />Shoes: Calvin Klein<br />Handbag: Danier Leather<br />Watch: thrifted
