Dress for a Wedding, WDYT? (PIP)

image

I posted before about a red dress, some of you might remember, and I got a lot of mixed reviews.  So how about this one?  I definitely think it's more along the right lines in terms of formality, and it's less sexy.

Specifically someone mentioned the other one being more fall/winter (not sure I agree though) and I was wondering if this one fits for May?  The dark purple might still be sort of fall, though, IDK.

  • I think that dress is good for May! I also love purple though.

  • I love purple too!  I thought maybe I was being biased, I think it works for all seasons.

  • I love this dress.  And I think the color would work for any season.  I usually see purple as a spring color, but this is dark enough for any season.

     

    My co-worker walked in while I was responding and wants to know where the dress is from.

  • I also love purple so I'm biased.  I think the dress is beautiful and would work well for a wedding.

  • I love the dress and I think it's perfect for a wedding. As for the color, I don't think it matters if it's in the fall or not as long as the wedding is an evening wedding since it's a darker color.
  • I agree with PP.  I think the dress is great and would work for any season!

    It's from the Nordstrom Rack website, it's 60% off!  I forget the designer, I will look.

  • I love purple, wear it all year long, and that dress is fantastic!  I like it much better than the red one.
  • Cute dress!  I don't think the purple is too fall-ish.  You can always accessorize with lighter colors to make it seem more spring-ish if you want, but I think it's a good choice for either season.

    That's a really good point. I do have a springy cardigan with a splashy, almost abstract flower print that has this shade of purple in it along with some pale yellow and off-white, I think that would work!  Thanks!

    I DO have a bit of an obsession.  Embarrassed

  • damn laura...I'm begining to think our wardrobes look very similar (minus my collection of slut outfits).

    I love the purple dress. Reminds me A LOT of a maroon dress (White house/Black Market) that I wore to a wedding.
