Beautiful dress and definitely worthy of the alterations. I do like the vibrant dress with the black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040644 Sat, 28 Sep 2013 08:47:57 +0000 Asingh 1040644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress, Una! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040570 Sat, 28 Sep 2013 03:43:27 +0000 cciele 1040570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome print and looks great with the jacket/dress formula! Does the hip wing thing (love that term)&nbsp;have to do with height, e.g., where the hip area (area of wider fabric) hits on a tall vs short person? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040566 Sat, 28 Sep 2013 03:32:26 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 1040566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look awesome. This is exactly the type of outfit I like to wear to work. Formal enough, bit with a bit of spunk. Makes you memorable amongst the crowd (important in my profession) without people wondering "what is she on?" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040496 Sat, 28 Sep 2013 00:40:15 +0000 Sveta 1040496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun dress and it really allows for a&nbsp;"lazy" styling and looks amazing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040493 Sat, 28 Sep 2013 00:37:54 +0000 viva 1040493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the print of that dress -- and it looks amazing with the sharp black contrast of that jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040465 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 23:46:33 +0000 K. Period. 1040465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreed--love the color and the pattern and it looks great with black. The fit is hard to tell, with the jacket and your stance, but I'm ignoring it because you obviously don't want us to be judging it right now. Off for a hip wing nip and it will be perfect. &nbsp;Are you leaving just a hint of the hip wings? Sometimes I feel like that is more flattering on us ITs than a skirt that really fits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040459 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 23:35:53 +0000 Anonymous 1040459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the colors and pattern and the black jacket makes them glow. The dress will be perfect after the tailor works magic on those hip wings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040454 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 23:23:40 +0000 Caro in Oz 1040454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha love it&nbsp;&nbsp;- I always have hip wings in dresses too </p> <p></p> <p>ETA - oops forgot to add love it all, that jacket is perfect on you.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040228 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 17:35:09 +0000 catgirl 1040228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is the dress - it runs 2 sizes small in my opinion. </p> <p><a href="http://m.nordstrom.com/Product/Details/3594975?origin=keywordsearch" rel="nofollow">http://m.nordstrom.com/Product.....wordsearch</a></p> <p>I chopped out the shoulder pads and would probably never wear it without a topper. It is now sized up so that it is almost a shift instead of a sheath, at least once the hip wings are gone.</p> <p>Will take a pic without topper which is not as IT friendly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040208 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 17:22:15 +0000 AviaMariah 1040208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the colors. &nbsp;Also love that you found a way to wear it before getting in tailored.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040202 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 17:18:22 +0000 Anonymous 1040202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super cute and professional! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040179 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 16:54:48 +0000 Anonymous 1040179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks sharp with the jacket.

Maybe that's just what I need! Any chance we can see how the top fits? Weren't there shoulder pads involved? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040156 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 16:32:21 +0000 kellygirl 1040156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You wear these colorful prints so well.

Thistle's right the jacket adds a nice professional touch and I like that the boots add a bit of your UWP. 'hip wings' I like that </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040143 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 16:22:23 +0000 catgirl 1040143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Thistle - that's why I wore this particular jacket.&nbsp; Then it's off to the tailor to get rid of the hip wings! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040140 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 16:21:11 +0000 Thistle 1040140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress on you. The colors are vibrant, yet the jacket adds a professional touch. Love it with the Harley boots!</p> <p>It does not look too big in the picture, but the jacket does lay so nicely over that area that it would conceal it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-topshop-dress#post-1040138 Fri, 27 Sep 2013 16:18:52 +0000 catgirl 1040138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This Topshop dress has been a struggle to size. FIrst was too small, this one is a bit big.&nbsp; I'm going to get the hips taken in.&nbsp; But otherwise, I love the color and pattern.&nbsp; This was the quick and lazy way to wear it - Theory blazer, Harley boots.&nbsp; Feedback welcome!&nbsp; Sorry to post and run - gotta get DS to school. </p>
