A question, what does gauzy mean? I’m Swedish </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931990 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 21:43:43 +0000 The Cat 1931990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You could also add a white jacket ( i. e. a linen blazer) or a gauzy white shawl. And what about a white straw hat, perhaps with a blue ribbon? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931989 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 21:42:33 +0000 The Cat 1931989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For dressing up the dress, I suggest chunky white pearls and chic but comfy white shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931900 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 14:36:58 +0000 Karin L H 1931900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much Aida, shevia and Joy! Good suggestions too. I used to have a black necklace that might fall under the description of gumball sized pearls, I wonder if I can find it somewhere... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931799 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 04:24:14 +0000 Anonymous 1931799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits look wonderful on you. To dress up the polkadot dress, how about white pointy flats, a white clutch and a necklace of big gumball sized faux pearls. I cannot see the waist very well, but you could add a pretty ribbon tied in a bow for a belt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931788 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 03:00:31 +0000 Jaime 1931788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like that style of baggy shorts and the polka dot dress looks terrific! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931778 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 02:04:15 +0000 Aida 1931778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look good! Digging the black+brown mix with the yellow top in #1, and the dotty dress is super cute. I had to re-read that you asked for dressing it up, I'm used to seeing "how to dress down" Second the idea of metallics to add a little glam. A pointy flat would be a little dressier. And a short structured jacket could do the trick, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931662 Mon, 25 Jun 2018 19:37:02 +0000 Karin L H 1931662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, thanks so much both of you! Good idea Gigi with bright nail polish, I’ll try that. And I’m happy you feel the dress works so well on it’s own!</p> <p>Thanks so much rachylou! Yellow is always tricky but I thought this one works..! And yay, glad I made the semi-tuck </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931655 Mon, 25 Jun 2018 19:24:54 +0000 rachylou 1931655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I find these sooo great on you. I think I must just really like deep colour on you, Karin.</p> <p>Also: perfect semi tuck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931646 Mon, 25 Jun 2018 19:09:56 +0000 Gigi 1931646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm really loving yellow this year...glad you are enjoying it too!</p> <p>I like the polka dot dress--very nice. I would dress it up with a dainty gold pendant and maybe a gold bracelet or anklet. I think that the dress is so beautiful that I wouldn't want to distract from it, just add a little glimmer or sparkle to brighten things up. You could also try wearing a bright nail polish on hands or feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-summer-casual-and-polka-dot#post-1931623 Mon, 25 Jun 2018 17:28:54 +0000 Karin L H 1931623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yesterday we had some warmth again! Spent the morning in a playground and the afternoon at a friend’s child’s birthday party.</p> <p>Pic 1 is from the morning, yellow top, semi-tucked in black shorts, and brown leather flats.</p> <p>Pic 2 is for the birthday party, a fairly new polka dot dress and my new nude sandals.</p> <p>Any thoughts are much appreciated! Would love some ideas of how to dress up the dress. Don’t have much jewellery but thought about wearing a short necklace with a light blue round stone... can try it at some point! </p>
