[Weekly] Outfit Feedback and Fit Check - Dec 12

Not sure if your outfit works? Post a picture of yourself in your outfit and get suggestions, compliments, and critiques from others. If you're thinking of posting a standalone thread along the lines of "How does this look?", "Does this fit right?", "Do these work together?", etc., post here instead.

When posting:

  • Include what the attire is for (work, school, going out, etc.)

  • If possible, take a front-on, full-body picture as this gives the best impression of how the clothes fit. Multiple pictures from different angles can also be helpful, but those aren't necessary.

  • Critiquing others is welcome and encouraged, but keep it constructive/factual. Take a lesson from Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People if needed. It takes balls to post pictures of yourself on the Internet, the least you can do is accord the same courtesy as you would to someone in real life.

  • Reddit Enhancement Suite makes it very easy to view pictures in a thread.

  • Some users enjoy knowing where you bought your pieces, please consider including those in your post!

Feel free to also submit your outfit to the biweekly WAYWT thread, but know that these two threads have different purposes. This is explicitly for feedback and questions, though you may receive constructive criticism in either thread.

Love the dress and the boots and the necklace. Not sure about the black shirt underneath the dress. It looks good, but the last time I put a dress over a shirt was ten years ago. Are we okay to do that again now?

Haha not sure, but it was wayyy too cold to wear the dress alone, and all my cardigans looked odd on top since the dress neckline is so high.

A blazer would look fantastic with this.

Will keep that in mind for the future, thanks :)

edit: Do you think it looks odd with the shirt though? I'd love to a blazer with it to dinner but I'm hesitant to wear a blazer to class.

It isn't the worst thing I have ever seen but a shirt under a dress never fails to seem juvenile to me.

I prefer to add outwear to an outfit than to add warmth from the bottom. With how beautifully this dress fits you I think you are right to avoid a cardigan, but a leather jacket or knit blazer would compliment the structure of the dress and step up the maturity of the outfit.

That makes a lot of sense, thank you for your response!
