Default Help me choose a dress!

Hi Ladies (and gents),

I was wondering if I could call on your infinitely better fashion sense to help me pick a dress for an upcoming event? It's for the graduation of a class I volunteer for, so nothing super fancy.

There are three options - I can't get the pics on here, so they are on imgur: http://imgur.com/a/b8tME

1. Blue/White with Red Stripe

2. Green

3. Royal Blue

Which one looks best? Also, shoe suggestions?

Thanks so so much for your help!

thanks ladies! I love the red white and blue one but it doesn't cinch at the waist so I'm afraid it doesn't flatter my figure...

It doesn't cinch but the red stripe gives it a similar feel since it draws attention imo. It's my favorite of the three really, it seems more flattering. I think the other two are kind of boring :-P

Hi,

For me the 3rd blue one is hands down the best, I just love it. I am not crazy about the red stripe one because it cuts the body and the line is not clean-nor does it reflect on all the hard work in the weight you have lost.
Good luck

Sheridan

I too like the blue one (3rd picture)...it just needs dressing up a little with a bit of jewelry. However, you look great in all of them!

1 - Red/Blue
2 - Blue
3 - Green

I think that The Red/Blue and Blue show off your waist nicely, whereas the green one makes it look like you've got something you're trying to hide (but you don't!). The Red/Blue is more fun, the Blue is more dressy, but I think you'd be ok with either.

As far a shoes go, I love black ballet flats and think that they would go well with either dress. A skinny black heal or open toe sandal would also work IMHO.

I like them all, but am afraid the first one , while cute, will draw attention to waist and hips. I would pick the third one, it will be very flattering and a little jewekry will dress it up, earrings, bracelets, etc.
Shoes will depend on what the occasion s , but for this event you could wear a shoe with a wedge .I would try to find multicolor, that would look great with the blue.
