You all look fab! The shirtdress is an excellent look for you Suz and what great pics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2/page/2#post-2388113 Mon, 16 Jun 2025 19:29:40 +0000 Carol 2388113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Finally getting back to this. Looks like all has been said. I will just add: I did not see how low those heels were. They look positively elegant with that dress, and I thought they were regular heels. On my list: low heels.<br />Rainbow strap: an elegant and fun way to show solidarity with your scholar, and I'm sure they will remember that.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2/page/2#post-2388081 Mon, 16 Jun 2025 15:18:10 +0000 Suz 2388081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the lovely comments, friends.

The shirt dress is perfect. I have a similar dress in black with many wears. &nbsp;My oldie but goodie is a pair of shoes that I bought to wear to a niece's college graduation in 2017. &nbsp;It turned out that they were perfect for her garden wedding last month. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2388032 Sun, 15 Jun 2025 15:35:07 +0000 kkards 2388032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on the graduation&nbsp;<br />and how perfect that you had the right piece just waiting to be the star again.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2388030 Sun, 15 Jun 2025 15:13:03 +0000 Laurie 2388030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Suz - so beautiful, all of this. The apple has not fallen far from the tree - a writer! Congratulations to LJ, and to Mom and Dad. The journey is <i>real</i>.<br />You look lovely. I especially like the silver sling backs. Super pretty with the outfit. And the symbolic bag strap is excellent.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2388029 Sun, 15 Jun 2025 14:58:31 +0000 DonnaF 2388029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fab outfits! Seems like only a year or two ago that LJ was awarded a middle school prize for their writing. So great that they pursued that talent. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2388023 Sun, 15 Jun 2025 06:25:29 +0000 Star (Lise) 2388023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a versatile dress. YLF! And Congratulations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2388019 Sun, 15 Jun 2025 05:05:37 +0000 Karie 2388019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations to your graduate, and you look fantastic in both outfits! It’s nice to have clothing that, although doesn’t get worn much, serves a specific purpose in our wardrobe. I have items for travel like that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2388018 Sun, 15 Jun 2025 03:27:02 +0000 Brooklyn 2388018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations to all! Sounds like LJ takes after you, Suz. You must be very proud. Y’all look fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2388007 Sun, 15 Jun 2025 00:26:26 +0000 Jenni NZ 2388007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations to LJ on such a wonderful day, and to you both as the parents.<br /> I would have changed back to the more dressy shoes after the walk too. I have quite a few dressy shoes so also take every opportunity to wear them! I like your dress and really love the small cropped jacket with it. I wore a longsleeved dress when my son graduated a few years ago. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387989 Sat, 14 Jun 2025 19:41:59 +0000 Lisa 2387989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An excellent dress that worked double duty and is lovely styled both ways. </p> <p>Congratulations to your kiddo!</p> <p>Also a great point, not everything in a wardrobe will have a low CPW or be worn often, but that doesn't always mean the item should be edited out. The role the item fits must also be considered.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387985 Sat, 14 Jun 2025 19:24:55 +0000 sarah 2387985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>So fab, Suz! Shirtdress to the rescue. You styled it beautifully. I don't have a shirtdress, but I'm on the lookout for one - they seem so versatile.</div><div><br /></div><div>You graduate looks so happy and the parents look so proud!

Suz, you are the queen of versatile styling!! I bet you'll start wearing your oldie but goodie a lot now that you've resurrected it.&nbsp;</p> <p>You've reminded me I should really try to buy a few things with sleeves. All of my dresses are sleeveless! Our weather is crazy like yours!&nbsp;</p> <p>And I echo the sentiments...I wish Nordstrom would bring back Classiques Entier! It was the best brand they ever had. I still have a blouse I wear on occasion.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387949 Sat, 14 Jun 2025 01:55:31 +0000 Kyle 2387949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your family is beautiful, Suz. And congratulations to your accomplished graduate. I’m heartened to know young people are still studying the arts! Your wardrobe works for you so well. It really seems that you are prepared for anything. And what CAN’T a shirt dress do? They are so appropriate for so many different types of events and activities. And so flattering, too!<div><br /></div><div>I love the rainbow strap. I think I need one to coordinate with my standard poodle’s rainbow collar.</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387948 Sat, 14 Jun 2025 01:01:22 +0000 Indigoprint 2387948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking FAB and on point for your style at this memorable occasion.<br /> Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387940 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 22:34:50 +0000 JAileen 2387940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both versions look great and Congrats to the Grad! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387938 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 21:55:41 +0000 Suz 2387938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all. LJ earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Writing (with distinction!) and next year they are headed to the Faculty of Education.&nbsp;</p> <p>The ceremony was long but I also got the pleasure of seeing several of my favourite former students on that stage and later got to congratulate them in person, so that was an added bonus.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387937 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 21:54:50 +0000 Helena 2387937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic, congrats to your wonderful kid and the proud parents!

Its a perfect classic that can be dressed up or down. Haha, I'm familiar with those extra long ceremonies too, but a wonderful achievement and congrats to the grad. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387935 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 20:48:15 +0000 Kate 2387935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a perfect dress.

And I am going to have to go back and finish reading the dress shirt post, my own, all the comments, before I do this one justice. But what a great dress,&nbsp; and I love how you were able to switch it from "day to night," as it were. And congratulations to your kid!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387930 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 19:53:28 +0000 LJP 2387930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a perfect dress for the occasion and your styling is fabulous . What’s LJ’s degree in ? ( zoomed in but can’t quite read the diploma ) - and congratulations to them </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387929 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 19:49:52 +0000 Cookie 2387929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love how the dress looks so good both ways! Congrats to your fam. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387926 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 19:28:30 +0000 Suz 2387926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks,<b> Sharan</b>. Mr. Suz loved the sneakers so much he thought I should wear them all day! Which would have been fine, in fact. But I like my Naturalizer slingbacks so much I wear them at any opportunity. I was actually pondering buying extra pairs of both shoes, yesterday, to keep in reserve....</p> <p>Thanks, all for the kind words.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Angie,</b> I loved Classiques Entier, too! I hope Nordstrom's gets the message at some point about those house brands.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387924 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 18:51:58 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2387924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>That dress is just right for the occasion, Suz. Dressed down and up, perfectly, and your new silver Cole Haan sneakers are already earning their keep. Part of what makes these outfits work so seamlessly are the matching footwear in dressy and casual versions, to match the bag. Plus your neutral dressy and casual jackets. It's evidence of how well coordinated your wardrobe is. <br /></div><div>Congratulations to your graduate, and thanks for sharing these lovely family pics! <br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387923 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 18:42:51 +0000 Janet 2387923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So good! Perfect outfit and styling for the occasion (love the bag strap too!). So smart to keep these items.</p> <p>Big congrats to your kiddo! They are so lucky to have your support and love — I know you must be so proud. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/yay-for-the-shirt-dress-v-2#post-2387919 Fri, 13 Jun 2025 18:20:41 +0000 RobinF 2387919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that dress looks great on you! Seems like the perfect look for the occasion too. Love it with the silver accents.</p>
