I'm not sure of your style enough to say whether the Missoni is you.

And #1 is just gorgeous. Casual frock dressing at its best. KILLER looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961786 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 17:46:27 +0000 rachylou 961786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, the red pants and drapey tee and espadrilles blow it out of the water!</p> <p>#2 was my fave before I got to the pants. Very elegantly done.</p> <p>Love your shoes in #3.</p> <p>Crumpelstiltskin is a great term, btw. Personally, I give up on linen. This includes linen dish towels. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961640 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 14:59:19 +0000 Sara L. 961640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the red pants and slouchy white tee.&nbsp; The shoes look great with it.&nbsp; The linen dress looks good even crinkled at the end of the day.&nbsp; I have a white linen skirt that I love and it looks the same by the time I go home.&nbsp; I've just decided to deal with the wrinkles.</p> <p>Una - love Crankenstein!&nbsp; I tell my youngest he's a crankster all the time, but now I have a new term for him (he's a cranky child and always has been from the day he was born). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961577 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 13:35:26 +0000 Transcona Shannon 961577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I actually like everything here - including the Missoni-esque dress. But it's how you feel in an item that counts and if that dress doesn't feel like you, pass it on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961576 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 13:30:58 +0000 bj1111 961576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More thumbs way fown for the striped dress.</p> <p>@denise, maybe i'll keep the dress until the fall and try it with a turtle and boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961463 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 10:32:15 +0000 Anonymous 961463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all of them except the Missoni dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961433 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 08:24:27 +0000 Deborah 961433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all of these except no 3. I think it's the colour palette that I am not used to seeing on you. Other than that it is flattering and is a nice dress but it doesn't say "bj" to me:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961431 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 08:18:58 +0000 CocoLion 961431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the matchy pants and espadrilles... not too much! &nbsp;Tonal rather than matchy. &nbsp;;-)</p> <p>(And I like it better simple, without the pendant.)</p> <p>Love your crumpleskillet dress. &nbsp;And the DVF is gorgeous on you, love that length on you. &nbsp;I like the k/p dress but there's something autumnal about it, I am craving tights and booties or tall boots with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961394 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 04:56:22 +0000 carolbee 961394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The wrap dress is gorgeous. I like the red pants combo with the necklace. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961377 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 04:03:28 +0000 bj1111 961377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@caro...i will try as a tunic, perhaps with white pants.m thanks for the idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961373 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 03:59:40 +0000 Caro in Oz 961373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF in all these. I love linen &amp; the colour of the first dress is glorious :)</p> <p>I think #3 looks good but if it isn't you then it isn't worth it - could you make a tunic out of&nbsp;it with slim black pants &amp; a wide black belt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961370 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 03:57:05 +0000 bj1111 961370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz...stop giving me ideas!

I like the sleeve length and the dress shape, but the color combo is weird and i feel prissy in it.</p> <p>@anna, i love sea anemones and squishy water invertebrates! Must find a print in a dress.</p> <p>@una, crankenstein is so good. I must try that out on hubs.</p> <p>@shevia and @donnat, "less good" and "not quite as fab" are so tactful.</p> <p>@suz, luckily, i did not wear my red superhero undies over my dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961329 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 02:56:06 +0000 Suz 961329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The linen dress is such a gorgeous colour. One reason I love linen, despite the way it creases, is the way it takes a colour like that.&nbsp;</p> <p>You look great in that wrap, and what an amazing and original pattern. Love it! It reminds me of all the things you said, all the things Anna said, and also of a comic book's "kapow" and "wham!"&nbsp;</p> <p>The red pants outfit is fabulous. Those shoes just make it.&nbsp;</p> <p>If the dress in #3 is not you, then perhaps it is best to let it go. It <b>looks</b> good, but that's not necessarily the test.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961326 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 02:53:19 +0000 catgirl 961326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Crumplestiltskin made me laugh so hard!&nbsp; We often refer to people in our family as Crankenstein when they are being grouchy.&nbsp; </p> <p>Love the first two dresses.&nbsp; Am struggling with red ankle skinnies myself.&nbsp; Not clear on the Missoni dress - it's something I love in theory but not as much in practice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961324 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 02:48:56 +0000 annagybe 961324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Linen dress is great. The DVF reminds of sea anemones and my field course at the Hatfield Marine Science Center on the Oregon coast.&nbsp;<br />I like the matchy matchy look.<br />Ambivalent about the Missoni-esque dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961323 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 02:45:53 +0000 Jaime 961323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite is #4 - gorgeous! I think the dress in #3 is less good than the others so I would say purge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961322 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 02:43:18 +0000 donnat 961322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love crumplestiltskin, #2 very flattering on you and also love the red pants with the slouchy tee. #3 looks nice enough on you but is there quite as fab as the others </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-crumplestiltskin-and-kp#post-961311 Fri, 21 Jun 2013 02:33:44 +0000 bj1111 961311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>here's my delayed dress challenge.</p> <p>1. &nbsp;crumplestiltskin: my favorite summer dress in linen at the end of the day</p> <p>2. &nbsp;starry night in black and white: &nbsp;dvf wrap dress in an impressionistic monet print. &nbsp;also reminds me of van gogh.</p> <p>3. &nbsp;normative: &nbsp;striped dress for work. &nbsp;very SFW. &nbsp;this one is up for keep or purge. &nbsp;i love it but it's not me.</p> <p>yay=keep &nbsp;nay=let go</p> <p>4. &nbsp;matchy-matchy: &nbsp;too matchy? &nbsp;red pants last worn<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-whites-blues"> this way</a>.</p>
