That hotel room does look fun, but the real issue here is your outfit - what a gorgeous dress! I often wear navy tights with black shoes/boots, so that looks good to me too.<br />Re legs - I have similar issues, and I was going to try a tanning cream. Loreal makes one that I thought I might try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-cm-silk-shirt-dress/page/2#post-1630930 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 19:31:28 +0000 JamC 1630930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The CM dress arrived yesterday. &nbsp;Thanks for finding it! &nbsp;It is lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-cm-silk-shirt-dress/page/2#post-1628408 Sat, 12 Mar 2016 16:08:09 +0000 Anonymous 1628408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Votre réponsevery nice shirt you're very elegant </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-cm-silk-shirt-dress/page/2#post-1628401 Sat, 12 Mar 2016 15:49:34 +0000 Anonymous 1628401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh gosh, this is flat-out *gorgeous* on you, Viva! I travel to Colorado a lot and always seem to battle a migraine when there. I think the altitude contributes. My best remedy is drinking TONS of water -- before, during and after the flight (I always book an aisle seat, haha!), plus during my stay. It doesn't always work, but it can help head off worse problems. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-cm-silk-shirt-dress/page/2#post-1628392 Sat, 12 Mar 2016 15:26:26 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1628392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look wonderful in this!

I don't need another dress but can't get this one out of my head...not sure if I will order it or not! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-cm-silk-shirt-dress/page/2#post-1627943 Fri, 11 Mar 2016 15:26:31 +0000 Anonymous 1627943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The slip issue has become real again, hasn't it? &nbsp;I &nbsp;have two silk Aritzia shirt dresses which when not worn with tights, I realize are like wearing a long thin shirt. Ah, no. &nbsp;And I know what you mean about this leg business too - and when did that happen? &nbsp;Now I notice every errant hair, less-than-taut area of skin, discolouration etc etc. &nbsp;Gah. &nbsp;Is there nothing left? &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-cm-silk-shirt-dress/page/2#post-1627912 Fri, 11 Mar 2016 14:37:20 +0000 Vix 1627912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi again Viva --</p> <p>Yikes, working through a migraine -- glad you at least didn't have to fight with your clothes and hope you're fast-tracked to wellness.</p> <p>Glad to hear you feel you're all sorted with the workwear! It's such a pain to feel off, especially if you're interacting with people a lot. Based on what you've shown, you seem to have a great variety of things to play with for the warmer months!&nbsp;</p> <p>Re the slip when it's time for bare legs -- I highly recommend. </p> <p>All of my unlined silk dresses/tunics/shirtdresses go quite sheer in the sun, even the heavier weight ones. [I now see why my grandmother was so scandalized when I went slip-free in my 20s, ha!] I'm now a frequent slip wearer, though it's probably due more to vanity than modesty.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-cm-silk-shirt-dress/page/2#post-1627889 Fri, 11 Mar 2016 13:32:41 +0000 viva 1627889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b></b>Thank you everyone! I'm so glad you agreed this dress worked well. I felt great in it last night, although moderating through a low-level migraine is not my ideal. It was a loooong night. <b></b></p> </p> <p><b><br /> </b></p> <p><b>AviaMariah, Banoffi, Secret Squirrel, and Lisap</b>: I love this hotel! It's the Hotel Monaco in Denver, and it's really beautiful and has a great Italian restaurant too. The Monaco is part of the Kimptom hotel chain which always has interesting properties, and you can earn free nights quickly. Only problem is no coffee pot in the room. (SOrry I missed you again, <b>MileHighLinda</b>!)</p> <p><b>JamC</b>: The sizing is TTS. I am wearing my normal size here (same dress size I wear at JCrew, Loft, etc.</p> <p><b>Lisap</b>: Honestly, I don't have the patience or time to worry too much about the "best" scenario these days -- and I am lucky not to be a matchy matchy girl. For me, navy and black is good enough: haha! In this instance, I think it works fine. I carried a black tote and I took a long black cardigan to wear for the walk back to the hotel.</p> <p><b>Vix</b>: Yes, I was having trouble with my work travel capsule! I think I was realizing that my old standbys weren't cutting it anymore. I used to wear a lot of full length trousers but I am just not happy in them right now and I needed help finding other silhouettes. I discovered the column-under-jacket, which is a new fave, and I discovered the pleasure of work dresses for travel, which is a new discovery. So the group has been great. I'm not looking to buy any more work clothes, but I do have a DVF wrap dress and it may be worth trying that again; it's been a while.</p> <p><b>Aida</b>: I would like to try this dress in the warmer weather with sandals although, to be honest, I am a bit worried about how my legs. They're not looking as great as they used to. Maybe a tiny bit of self-tanner or something to enliven the tone? I don't really know; it's hard getting older....</p> <p><b>Lisa</b>: It's a lightweight dress but not too too delicate, if that makes sense. It is not lined and definitely feels like wearing a big shirt -- not very substantial, but I felt appropriately dressed. I wonder if I might want a little slip when I am only wearing sandals? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-cm-silk-shirt-dress/page/2#post-1627888 Fri, 11 Mar 2016 13:30:07 +0000 Sheila 1627888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes... this is quite wonderful !

Glad to hear it traveled well, this looks like the perfect sort of dress for your work. Looks super paired with the opaque black tights/boots combo.

Because it doesn't seem like you need help? </p> <p>But if you're sold on the shirtdress and or want to add more prints you could explore DVF (if you haven't already). I'm continuing down the path I started exploring last summer -- slim cut silk shirtdresses or long tunics worn over pencil skirts and varying types of pants -- and have found some appealing items in her line and on deep discount. (Tough combo!). Some are crepe, some stretch silk, and some silk jersey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-the-cm-silk-shirt-dress#post-1627662 Thu, 10 Mar 2016 22:48:18 +0000 Zibbets 1627662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous!

What hotel are you in? &nbsp;Interesting looking headboards and mirror frame...</p> <p>I need to stop trying to figure out navy tights and boots combos, and just go with black boots as you've done.
