Potential new dress, any thoughts?

There's a small Swedish clothes company that makes nice clothes of good quality, and I've been wanting to try them for a while. In a couple of weeks I'm going to one of the cities where they have a store (they mostly sell online), and I've found a dress that I want to try.

I have a couple of casual dresses that I like a lot, but one is a bit too short and the other is burled (correct term?), so I'm looking for a replacement. I'm thinking for spring and autumn, maybe even winter with thick tights. A simple and casual dress which is easy to wear when you don't want to think too much, but still look good.

Any thoughts on this dress, or which colour you prefer? I like them both, but prefer the more bright blue one.

The dresses are abut pricey for me (about 140$), but they're supposed to be of good quality and I think I'll get a lot of use from it.

Any thoughts are much appreciated!

Both look like very comfy, easy to wear dresses. Are they the same style, but different colours?

If so, I agree with you and like the brighter blue one better. I think it'll be easier to wear with thick black tights for winter and also it's a more summery colour if you're going to wear in the summer as well.

Thanks Krissy! Yes, it's the same dress but different colours. Thank you for your input! Can't wait to try it on and see how it fits..!

I think that is a stunning dress design and I could see it being dressed up or down. I am a little inclined toward the navy one for you tho, but seriously either colour would look gorgeous on you.

Thank you Deborah, that's very sweet! I'll probably try both and see how they feel, if they have both in the store...

The dress is an excellent, versatile shape. Definitely try on and see which color suits you best, but it looks like it has great potential.

Thanks shevia, happy to hear that!

I like the dress and also vote for the brighter blue. It seems like a more fun and interesting color while still being versatile, plus what Krissy said about working better with black tights when it's cold.

I vote brighter blue too, hope it works out for you! I love the shape.

Thanks Aubergine and Daria! I think the dress looks very promising. Hope it works IRL as well!

It's a nice dress. I like the brighter blue. I hope it works for you,

The dress looks very comfy. I love that particular shade of blue; if the color works well on you, I'd go for the blue one. It will be cheering in winter.

Great, thanks Minnie and Windchime!
