Let's see, I liked that the pattern has black (because I ended up wearing a black sweater and waist wrap to jazz up this boring dress). You could wear this one to a Mormon wedding and fit right in- it is very modest. I told my husband it was reminding me of a teacher, and he said "specifically preschool." (No offense at all to teachers, I value the work you do x1,000!!! but what's appropriate for the school day did not make my evening look awesome!)

This dress is beautiful and comfortable, but it ended up being "too much" for the event I had in mind. The print has birds, butterflies, leaves, and flowers, so I felt like an entire garden/zoo. Gorgeous material but I needed some subtlety.

Had a free rental so I figured why not something fun. I had to wear two sizes up- think Asian sizing. A little short waisted for me, too.

I was really comfortable in this dress, which I wore to a concert on the first night of our road trip. Even in the truck I did not have a problem with it riding up- which is impressive for a short and stretchy style!
