It looks like I need to pass on the high rise trend.&nbsp; Even those that say they are high rise are not so on my body.</p> <p>Anchie, sometimes one can make slight changes in ROG's suggestions.&nbsp; For example, often ROG comes up with my silver metallic house slippers as a suggestion.&nbsp; I just substitute a silver pair of loafers.&nbsp; In summer black summer shoes might be substituted for black boots, a white tee for a white sweater, etc.</p> <p>Angie, stay tuned this week for more dresses.</p> <p>Bijou, a dress as duster or tunic gives it a new role to play and can help it be more casual.</p> <p>Thank you, suntiger and karen13.&nbsp; I usually wear the jacket in #1 in a dressier way, but I liked wearing this outfit.&nbsp; It works especially well with the snake shoes.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2036054 Sun, 16 Jun 2019 21:32:30 +0000 karen13 2036054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think #1 is great - love the pattern mixes. I hadn't read the comments when I looked at 2 and what I noticed was the the rise on the jeans (which I then saw Angie mention). Maybe don't tuck or don't belt?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035993 Sun, 16 Jun 2019 18:11:16 +0000 Anonymous 2035993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that jacket in #1, and it mixes well with the shoes! The skirt is more casual, but not bad. The duster works to my eye too-and I like it with the metallics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035924 Sun, 16 Jun 2019 14:24:39 +0000 Bijou 2035924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your use of ROG and the fact that the outfits work is amazing. I really love the denim dress worn as a duster, such a great idea to make a dress more versatile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035922 Sun, 16 Jun 2019 14:19:40 +0000 anchie 2035922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You always have luck with ROG. I get some crazy combinations. But I must admit I prefer #2 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035910 Sun, 16 Jun 2019 13:57:20 +0000 Angie 2035910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute pattern mix in #1, Queen ROG. Arty and creative.</p> <p>The denim dress worn as a duster looks fab. The jeans look a little too low in the rise though, but the pewter complement is smashing. Onto more dresses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035851 Sun, 16 Jun 2019 06:10:00 +0000 Anonymous 2035851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Shevia. ROG had suggested an end. More wild pattern mix using the pieces in Finds below. I do not remember the rest of the outfit but have an idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035831 Sun, 16 Jun 2019 01:49:20 +0000 Jaime 2035831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I kind of like the first over the top pattern mixing, but would probably also consider toning it down with a denim jacket. The under layer is excellent. Great bag shoe combination in the second outfit, but I would go for a higher waist or a non-contrasting belt I think. Basically two great outfits that I would enjoy tinkering with! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035803 Sat, 15 Jun 2019 22:23:32 +0000 Anonymous 2035803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cardiff girl and Kmarts, thank you for the ideas. I had on the second outfit today when I picked up some alterations. Some old wide jeans had been cropped and I felt so much better wearing then instead of the skirt. I really need to play with knotting tops and such. Unfortunately the white jeans were labelled high rise skinny crops. Clearly on me they are not skinny or cropped..<br /> Taylor, thank you for your comment about the denim dress as a duster. It had a lot of weight coming from such a stylish lady. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035796 Sat, 15 Jun 2019 21:14:32 +0000 Cardiff girl 2035796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first outfit works but You could tie together shirt in a front knot to play with the proportions.l think the second outfit has merit but again I would be tempted to alter the proportions by wearing a more fitted jean and perhaps having them a little cropped as well?Its great that you are willing to experiment with your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035786 Sat, 15 Jun 2019 20:17:53 +0000 taylor 2035786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look great Joy, but I am really loving the denim dress worn duster style !<br /> YLF ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035785 Sat, 15 Jun 2019 20:16:38 +0000 kkards 2035785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2 a lot. It’s a nice alternative to a denim jacket...to me it feels fresh.<br /> Maybe play around with cuffing the pants to show some ankle. Or perhaps a graphic tee instead of the white one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035771 Sat, 15 Jun 2019 19:22:29 +0000 Anonymous 2035771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, I agree that skinnies that look like skinnies would work better in this outfit. In the past I have done something very similar only with a column of black rather than white and liked it better because the black pants were more skinny.<br /> Rachylou, it just looked frumpy or too casual to me. You are right, the skirt is less formal than the top half. I feel dressed for a casual day of catching up with laundry and putting stuff away, it overall, I am happier with Outfit 1 than 2 because it feels a bit dressier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035767 Sat, 15 Jun 2019 19:01:20 +0000 rachylou 2035767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 2! Why don’t you like it?</p> <p>I find 1 not bad, but I’m not totally sure it’s good. Lol. The skirt is less formal than the other items... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035765 Sat, 15 Jun 2019 18:48:54 +0000 kellygirl 2035765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the skirt outfit definitely works. It's difficult to ascertain the colors because of the lighting but the pattern mixing is fun and unexpected and the proportions are flattering. I think the duster outfit is a little too voluminous with those pants. I think it might work better with skinnies.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwx2-dress-challenge-assisted-by-rog#post-2035759 Sat, 15 Jun 2019 18:12:42 +0000 Anonymous 2035759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am late to the dress challenge. The first outfit was suggested by ROG EF striped knit skirt, AT black silk shell under a Citron of Santa Monica silk kimono jacket, snake print Franco Sarto loafers and old grey with silver studs cross- body/ shoulder bag/clutch. I would never have put these together on my own. I plan to add bracelets.<br /> Photo 2 is an old denim dress worn duster style over white tee and white jeans with silver bag, loafers and jewelry. I was not happy with this outfit.<br /> 3/4: what I wore Sunday, orange. 4 is a string of irregular pearls strung by me. Interesting orange jewelry is hard too find. Not crazy about the cardigan but needed warmth.<br /> What do you think of these casual dress and skirt outfits? I welcome your ideas and comments. </p>
