The One Where I Ask For Your Help

let’s just say, hypothetically, that i’m going to be Mike’s +1 to a wedding this weekend. say, on Saturday. let’s also just say that i’m not totally sure what i want to wear. so, let’s say i was deciding between two dresses and wasn’t sure which one to choose because i love both an equal amount. let’s also say that i have another wedding to go to later in July, so whichever dress i don’t choose to wear to this one, i can wear to the other one.

let’s say i asked you to help me choose which one to wear. also, for the purposes of this hypothetical situation, let’s say my makeup will be done differently, my hair may look similar, and i’ll definitely be a bit more accessorized. what you’re seeing is just the bare bones of a possible outfit for a potential wedding i may be attending.

okay, you caught me. i’m definitely going to a wedding and totally need your help! HAAAALP!

    I think the darker is more flattering on you. I think it really depends on what time the weddings are (considering you plan to wear the other at another wedding) and if they are inside/outside. The navy looks more elegant whereas the lighter one looks more casual and summerish.

    Wear the darker one to whichever hypothetical wedding is later in the day 🙂

    I really like the darker one better.. The lighter one's fabric seems almost too casual to me..

    The darker one for sure! They both look great on you but the darker one looks more formal for a wedding and compliments you well!

    If one is an afternoon-ish outdoor wedding, wear the blue one to that. Evening &/or indoors, wear the darker one (purple?). Have fun!

    Definitely this! The darker one is so cute

    It depends on each of the venues. The darker blue seems to be a bit more formal than the other so decide based on the venue and type of wedding.

    Darker dress to the wedding later in the day/evening, but if they are at the same time wear the lighter one later in the summer when it's hotter, but if only one wedding is in a church wear that darker one to that wedding (since it's a little more covered and longer) 😃

    Darker one is gorgeous, and a bit more formal… Wear it to the wedding that is more formal
