Help me find an outfit for Lucy's baptism!!

erin · Chanel

i couldn't see the first one, but i really like the pantsuit! it looks very versatile, and i think would be nice for a baptism. the second skirt suit felt a little too springy for me. (but that's just my opinion)

at my nephews' baptism, it was pretty casual. ("business casual") i wore gap tweed pants that were sort of brown with glittery gold, and a black sweater. i think my sister just wore a simple dress.

What about a nice classic dress, maybe add a cardigan and definately some great shoes, maybe some t-strap heels and tights.

Thanks, girls! FP, I like some of your options and will check them out. I have a few wrap dresses already that I could wear but I kind of want something unlike what I already own--I really like Nanette Lepore or Trina Turk. Here is the link again for the first option that I posted:

And here is another option that I can ask the store owner of the boutique where I work to order for me at 30% off (if she'll do it):

ETA--edited to reverse the links (so the right pic goes with the right description, i.e. the first one is the one that's on sale that I would have to track down and the second one I could order.

Any opinions? I'm going to check bluefly next so I may post some more options. Thanks!

I like this last option you posted, very pretty and you could even wear the blazer with jeans for casual.

Thanks everyone, and thanks FP for posting the picture. They don't have any of the sale options, so I am going to keep looking . . . I might end up getting the one FP posted, but it's pricey even with my emp'ee discount.
