It's the best way to get a feel for what works with your body.<br /><br />My faves on you are #3 with the cardigan buttoned on the bottom. You look impossibly tiny!! And totally "sexy secretary" which I dig.<br /><br />And the silver belt is a keeper! It's gorgeous against that black dress (keep it as a contrast to darks rather than letting it blend in with the light colored shirts).<br /><br />Way to go!!Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02831243896567542815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-22862166647947250192010-05-09T10:49:24.964-05:002010-05-09T10:49:24.964-05:00Happy Mother's Day Shelley!

In the place I go they're usually close to the guacamole packs.<br /><br />They're great for the same reasons - enough for two people to share, or one person to spread on sandwiches for a week, but not so much that it gets moldy before you eat it all.RoseAGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01360864547510178832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-85755273537258879952010-05-07T17:10:15.846-05:002010-05-07T17:10:15.846-05:00Ok...this is so weird.

On your dress debut day, too! LOLOLOLOL!<br /><br />You look awesome in it! the shape is great for your body, and I love those sandals with it.<br /><br />Okay, onto the belt critique, picture by picture:<br />1. YES. YES YES YES. That is totally the sweet spot for belts on you. Look at how long your legs look and how it shows off your nice strong shoulder line. Get used to that spot (it's called your natural waist, as Tina said), because it is PERFECT for you.<br />2. Yep, wrong spot. See how it changes the emphasis on your shoulders and legs that the first look had? <br />3. Really cute with the boyfriend sweater! That's a fun alternative to #1. I agree, the shoes are better for pants. I would like to see you in a shoe that doesn't have a dark strap across the top; I bet along with the belt it would really lengthen your legs even more. (How do you think I do it? :))<br />4 and 5. I find silver belts to be tricky in general, because the weight wants to sling down, but for most looks it's better for the belt to be held up more firmly. I also have big problems belting button-downs. The best and easiest look I have seen for a button-down is a skinny leather/patent belt. <br />That said, of the two shots I like #4 best.<br />6. Silver with the dress. AWESOME. KILLER. KEEEEEEEP. This is how a silver belt is supposed to look; look at how it brings the whole LBD look to life! Fabulous. You can do so, so much with a look like this. Even just plain with metallic or nude shoes would be fab, or you can add color all over the place with a cami, or colorful necklace or scarf, or even red shoes. Those funky sandals you have in the other pics and a pretty colored clutch, and you are set for a nice dinner out! God, Shelley, this dress and belt combo is just hands-down my favorite. You look stunning.<br /><br />GO YOU.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06166689210558948213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-71739997133428755182010-05-07T06:52:49.536-05:002010-05-07T06:52:49.536-05:00Great pics!
