As I mentioned last week - I've got a wedding to go to this Saturday and in typical MB fashion, I wait until the last possible second to go dress shopping. Procrastination, FTW!
I just picked up these three today at the mall and need help deciding. Picture these girls with some actual hips - so they don't really "hang" on my legs - they hug some curves.
Wedding is at 6pm. It's not black tie - but most women will be in cocktail dresses.
So A, B, or C?


Re: Too Dressy?
I vote B or C... I would prob. wear C simply because I think you'll get more wear out of it in the future. Wear some sparkly shoes and jewelry and I think it's fine for evening.
I also love love B, so that would be my guilty pleasure dress. And the sparkle does not overwhelm me as much as A does, which I think might draw too much attention.

16 read! my read shelf:
I need more information on B - what kind of material is it?
No to A unless you're going to a club
I do love that dress though.
I love A too - and I needed a reason to justify the purchase. I haven't been to a club in years and $125 is a little much to just hang out in my closet. I'm not so sure it's appropriate for the Christmas party either.
B is sequined overlay with a polyester type lining underneath. The overlay isn't clingy or anything. Satin ribbon.

I think I might vote B then.
I would wear A to a Christmas party if it was at night. I was being kind of sarcastic about a club

I agree with this.
I think it would depend on the location/tone of the wedding as well.
Yea for sparkle I kind of love A. Throw on a black dressy cardigan and you've instantly made it more conservative (if you need it to go conservative to something). I'd 100% wear that to our office Christmas party.
C is also cute, and I know you said you wanted orange the other day. I think C is 'safer' and so also a good option.
I don't care for B.
However, I agree that C is probably the most wedding appropriate/you could wear it again and again. . .

I agree. I think C is the safe option. And you could totally rock A to an evening Christmas party or out for NYE.
I LOVE A! I would probably rock it to an evening wedding and its perfect for Christmas parties/NYE/birthday fabulousness:) I adore sparkle:)
I do agree that C is the safer option. Very cute and can be worn for a number of events.
