Date night help, please!

I have a date tonight (yay!) and we're going to a live NPR event at a nice concert hall/auditorium downtown and grabbing happy hour before hand. I have NO idea what to wear...so I'm going with "dressy" jeans, a dressy top and heels.

I found this top yesterday and love it...but I think it's really bright. It's "geranium" but almost bright orange/coral? I know this color isn't bad on me...I wear coral often and people often say it goes well with my skin tone but this is a bit orangy for me. I don't want him to be like "whoa..WTF is she wearing" (we're both pretty casual people) I'm also not crazy about the side flower...but I haven't found much else that I like. This is the kind of look I'm going for, but the color is SO.BRIGHT. But it's a bit dressier, which I want.

I did find this top at Express. It's cute on (better than the pic of me in it) but much more casual. I'd dress it up with a long necklace and earrings.

 

I also bought this top from ATL..very cute on (no pics, sorry) but not sure about it.

 

I'm welcome to any other suggestiosn...I can run to BR, ATL, Gap, Macys and Express at lunch time.

  • I LOVE the first one.  Even if it's bright it doesn't look like a "omg what is she thinking" kind of shirt. It's very flattering on you. If anything people will be looking at you thinking "omg I love that shirt she's wearing".

    I use all my votes of the day on this one!

    Completely agree, I think that top was made for you!! Enjoy your date night:)

  • I agree with everyone. That's a universally flattering color and such a fun pop against jeans. Wear it and enjoy being the center of attention!
