Yep I think new boots aren't in the budget this year BUT I happen to have some old cognac flat riding boots. Slightly annoying because one zip tag doesn't work, but otherwise just a bit battered. I'll try these out with them when I wear it more casually</p> <p>Becky, I think leggings will come out for casual wear with the skirt.&nbsp; And I'm with you on the neckline coverage. I don't like to have even a hint of cleavage.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912724 Wed, 25 Apr 2018 17:19:58 +0000 Becky 1912724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great, Anne! I don't think the dress looks too short, but I am like you and would feel more comfortable with more coverage, especially in a work situation. I do wear leggings with dresses that feel a bit too short to me. As others have mentioned, leggings would look more fall/winter than the bare legs/nude hose look. I also like to have a bit of coverage in the neckline and wear Second Base half camis with many of my dresses, unless they have high necklines. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912691 Wed, 25 Apr 2018 14:16:06 +0000 Beth Ann 1912691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a winter dress --- too often we relegate them to only warm weather months!&nbsp; I second tights -- in charcoal or black, or perhaps boots in cognac, grey or bone to lighten the contrast with your leg (Dress isn't too short).&nbsp; You and I both have to plan ahead for big purchases, so I'm guessing the tights -- creating a low-contrast line and more warmth, would be the best bet! (Although I could really see you with a pair of bone, taupe or cognac boots!)</p> <p>Like Angie, I wear a cami under my outfit almost every day.&nbsp; I don't use shapewear, but I like the smoothness and, in most months, the warmth as well.&nbsp; I prefer tanks to camis, because I don't like the way the tiny straps look under some of my knit tops. A bralette is a fabulous option if you're warm enough, and only seeking a bit of insurance from cleavage! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912687 Wed, 25 Apr 2018 14:07:25 +0000 anne 1912687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! Am interested in the suggestions of navy tights - the dress is black though I'm not sure if that is showing in your screens.</p> <p>efbgen - I think I've misled you by missing out a word in my post. I meant that I wore the dress the first time, not that it was my first time at this job (I've been there over 3 years)</p> <p>I've just remembered something in my wardrobe I can wear - some junior bralettes I wore with summer dresses at Beth Ann's suggestion. Will try this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912663 Wed, 25 Apr 2018 10:41:33 +0000 Helen11 1912663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress!&nbsp; I think it will look good with dark tights as well.&nbsp; I second (or third?) the recommendation of Target for basic camis.&nbsp; I have plain cotton/mix stretch ones from there that have worn really well.&nbsp; I do buy them a size up (ie I generally wear 8-10 in tops and these camis in a 12)<br />If you think that extra layer would be too warm for now, I think some of the specialist bra shops have a kind of clip-on cami to fill the gap without a whole garment.<br />I just had a quick look online, and there seems to be an Australian version called the Bstring!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912646 Wed, 25 Apr 2018 09:50:19 +0000 Mainelady 1912646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the dress with the boots. I would also like it with dark tights. I think either are going to be great options for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912452 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 18:04:18 +0000 Sara L. 1912452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice!&nbsp; Dark tights would look good.&nbsp; I like my tights to match my boots.&nbsp; I usually order camis off Amazon.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912350 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 14:30:16 +0000 Angie 1912350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes to the darker hose. Cute dress.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912322 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 14:01:49 +0000 Bijou 1912322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look lovely in this dress and professional - I don't think this dress requires a cam, but if you would prefer to wear one, then of course do so.</p> <p>I would wear sheer black hose with this dress and boots which I am preferring to the heavy look of opaque tights. It is fun to be out of summer clothes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912306 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 13:20:32 +0000 Helena 1912306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it as is, but I think dark tights would look great - as a personal preference on myself, I like the lengthening effect of dark tights with dark boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912262 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 11:39:34 +0000 Jenni NZ 1912262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really pretty dress. I would like with or without tights. Ezibuy has a range of camis. I prefer slippery material so tend to get from Farmers here, a mid-range department store( bit better than Target but not as fancy as DJs). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912259 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 11:36:31 +0000 unfrumped 1912259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m biased because I love dark tights with dresses for fall and winter.<br /> You could wear sheer dark tights when not yet cold weather and then warmer ones if you get into deeper winter.<br /> I don’t know stores but maybe not too hard to get a simple dark cami. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912258 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 11:36:09 +0000 Aquamarine 1912258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute dress! I really like it on you. I don’t think it is too short, but I might prefer it with dark tights anyway as you head into the cooler months. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912239 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 10:16:42 +0000 Anonymous 1912239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely outfit and while it is fine as pictured, I agree dark tights may look professional also and take you deeper into cooler season. I don’t see a problem with neckline but you have to feel comfortable. you look great and best wishes on your new job- hope it is all you want it to be </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912202 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 04:20:20 +0000 rachylou 1912202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really really cute! I like Joy’s idea of navy tights if you don’t want to show knees. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912196 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 03:42:32 +0000 Jaime 1912196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super pretty as is! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912195 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 03:39:54 +0000 Anonymous 1912195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about navy tights? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912178 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 02:43:49 +0000 Sal 1912178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks lovely Anne - I think as is or with black tights will both work - yay!!</p> <p>I would head to Target or David Jones/Myer for a cami:)&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912175 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 02:35:25 +0000 jussie 1912175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this dress on you. Yep I think dark leggings or tights are a good idea. Not because of the length but because it would be cohesive with the wintery boots. For camis I go to Zara. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912174 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 02:33:43 +0000 delurked 1912174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it would look good with dark tights. I don’t think it looks too short, but I’m familiar with the feeling that I’d prefer more length, and the tights fills in the gap for me. </p> <p>Also, a half cami is what I’d wear to fill in the neckline. I don’t know what you’ve got there for that. I know Angie has recommended second base camis in past. Something like that. The necklace fills in the space well, and you look nice in your outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwnew-dress-with-questions#post-1912173 Tue, 24 Apr 2018 02:29:56 +0000 anne 1912173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wore this for the first to work yesterday.<br /> 1. Do you think dark tights would be better? Felt a bit short.<br /> 2. I really need a cami that isn't a V-neck. I only have one, that is hot pink. Not sure l can wait for uniqlo to open as Bijou suggested. Recommenations for Australia?<br /> This dress was quite warm. It's lined apart from the sleeves. </p>
