The Bluefly dress is the WINNER!

Unless I find something else this weekend at the mall, but I'm keeping this no matter what!  Somewhat tempted to wear my minimizer bra with this though, lol

Very nice! It looks comfortable too.  Is that from Design History?

^^Yep! I have a feeling I'll be buying more of their dresses in the future, since it's the fabric I like, and on sale at Bluefly makes them pretty affordable smile.gif

Muuuuuuuuch better than the F21 dress! That looks great on you! It also looks like you could style it a bunch of different ways and really dress it up or down, depending on the accessories. Nice find!

Do you have a long strand necklace? ( pears/beads/gold)? If you have a few & can combine it for a multiple strands look - would be good!
I"m not trying to be a pain in the  P*&#P(&ampsmile.gif(#& , but is there any way to shorten the hem  about 1 1/2"?

^^I don't have anything for a necklace, but I am hitting up F21 tomorrow, so I can look there smile.gif

It's funny, lol, because I was thinking the same thing about the hem! I have a sewing machine, but don't know how to sew. My momma does though!

I think the length is really flattering - if it was shorter it would be less versatile. As it is you can still wear a blazer over the dress if you had an emergency job interview.

Very nice, looks great with those wedges. Get yourself some bangles and a fierce clutch and you're done!  Some suggestions:

1 1/2" shorter won't make it an inappropriate mini, but it's just to keep the right proportion for your body & you have GREAT legs!

Great Xtina's suggestions about accessories! Just see that costume jewelry is made well, doesn't have the cheap look. I agree - clutch is a GREAT idea & versatile!

If you happen to find no jewelry - look for a silk multicolored scarf/shawl or in solid bold bright color, that beautiful purple will go with a multitude of colors.

Any budget left for the shoes? A sexy peep toe, perhaps?

You look great! I'm sure you'll be able to find some inexpensive but cute pieces at Forever 21.

I don't know if you really need to shorten it any. Maybe have your mom pin it up and try it on with the shoes you want to wear just to see what it would look like for the wedding? I have a jersey dress that hits 2 inches or so above my knees and looks great with flats, but makes me feel self-conscious if I'm wearing heels.
