opinions on this dres...

[smiles]

Hi Ladies! I don''t post too often but I need an outside opinion and I know PS to be perfect for that!
So, my sister is getting married in July, it will be a daytime wedding and I think I have narrowed it down to the dress I want to wear. The only criteria I was given is that it must be blue - any shade I want but blue. So I will post two pics of the dress - the yellow bottom one is actually Junior sizes which is why the proportions are all wrong since I am 20 and have a chest! The pink one is the adult sizing version and was much too large so I am posting both just to give a better idea of what the dress looks like.

So the question is for colours would you.... (sorry I do not know how to make a poll!!)
a) get the dress all in navy blue
b) get the top in a light blue and the bottom in navy (my nervousness about this is that as you can see I am very pale and pale colours don;t usually look great....)
c) get all navy blue and just get the sash in a lighter blue

Thanks in advance for your help!!!!

Pretty dress! I think all navy blue would look lovely!

But maybe someone can do some photoshopping for you?!? I would but I don''t know the first thing about photoshop

Beautiful dress!

I would get the dress all in navy with a light blue sash. That way the navy looks nice against your skin and the light blue sash will lighten it up a bit since it''s a daytime wedding.

I think it will be gorgeous in all navy blue. I am also leaning towards the light blue sash, just to lighten the overall look, since it will be both day and summer. I think the style will be very flattering once it is tailored to you.

I agree! Navy blue with a light blue sash, and maybe you can do light blue shoes and jewelry/accessories?

It''s beautiful!

Yes! That''s my vote too!

Wow! Thanks everyone for the response - there seems to be an overwhelming consensus!!! That actually really helps so thank you!! I am so excited to order it!!!

I love weddings and I am soooo happy for my sis I can't wait!!!!

ETA: I wanted to get a long dress despite the day/summer thing so I can wear flats since I know that we will be doing a lot of dancing! Do you guys agree with me that this dress would be better with nice earrings than a necklace? I never really change my earrings and usually wear a stud should I do a bigger earring?

THANKS so much!

First off, I would like to agree that an all navy dress with a night light blue sash would look lovely.

As for accessories, since you don''t change up your earrings very much, some fancy dangling earrings would look great. If you are thinking about a necklace as well I would do something small. Pick one or the other to really emphasize.
