#1 & #3 get my votes. Lovely on you. Dressy.

#2 is more casual, nice though.

I personally think # 2 and #3 have the ability to be extremely versatile.~

I love the mint green one on you! In terms of the second choice, I'm veering toward the fit and flare, but only because I am imagining it to be a good, casual-ish dress for spring/early summer. The first one is gorgeous, but seems very dressy to me, somehow.

Which ones are you leaning toward?

First, I think they are all fantastic on you! You have a great shape and these really show off your fab legs beautifully. If I were keeping two I would choose the zebra and the green.

Noooo Laura, don't make us do this!!-) It looks as if all three were made for you!

OK: The zebra dress is stunning on you, body con but not clinging anywhere, love the print and colours on you, and it looks fantastic with your red pumps.

But, and only because you are twisting our arm: my vote goes to dress 2 and 3;
The fit and flare dress is just so ladylike, kicky and spunky all in one (it has a bit of a very modern Charleston vibe to it too, so fab). The neckline and sleeves are beautiful on you, and you know how I feel about stripes.
And I absolutely adore the mod vibe of dress 3. I just know it looks stunning with your do, plus that green is stunning and absolutely beautiful on you.

Which are your favourites, Laura?

P.S. Queen Frock proves once again why she carries this title, wow!

I think they all look great on you!

The green is my first pick. I love that color for spring. The striped one is really nice for a more casual dress and if that's something that you need, then I vote keep.

I love the zebra dress too but is it pulling a bit? Below your hand there appears to be wrinkles but maybe that's all it is.

I like #2 and #3 the best. I like the zebra print, but it is a lot of zebra!

This is hard! They all look fab on you. It really depends on what you need them for. My personal favs are #2 and #3 - but if you need a more dressy dress, I'd say #1 and #3. Great dresses!

Oooh, such helpful opinions! I am humbled by your comments and I don't want to give away how I am leaning yet, but I will say this: the green dress is pulling across the hips a teeny tiny bit, so I would need to size up. It reminds me a bit of my blue Eliza J dress. Are the two dresses too much alike?

Wow Laura - you look AMAZING in all three of these! It makes the choice very difficult indeed. As Inge pointed out, you have the title Queen Frock for a very, very good reason! My first choice is that beautiful green mod number in #3 - gorgeous style and colour for you. My second choice is the fit and flare - it just looks like so much fun for spring and summer and I don't think you have anything quite like it, correct?

I don't think they are too alike because of the the completely different visual feel of the two fabrics: silk vs ponte knit.

I agree with Claudia that they are different enough because of the two different fabrics, plus the mint green is just so gorgeous on you. If you enjoy wearing this silhouette, then I think there is room for both in your wardrobe;-) Keep us posted on the size up?

This is so tough! No wonder you are Queen Frock! Heavens....

I vote for the fit and flare because it is different (and I don't think I've seen anything else like it in your wardrobe?) and it would fill a casual dress hole.

As between the other two, I hate to choose. Since the mint one may be pulling a bit, then I would like to see the larger size and how it fits. Both look wonderful, but so the one that fits best is the one you should keep.

Since it looks like fit and flare is in the lead, I want to throw in a vote for the zebra....va va voom!

They do all look great, but #1 is just SOOO memorable. Almost too much, if you know what I mean.
#2 and #3 are both great on you and offer so many more styling options to change the look and vibe of each.

I like 3 but I feel like there is too much sleeve for you. What do you think about the sleeves? I am also loving 1.

Hey modgrl, you make a good point about the sleeve - and this is a petite so if I size up the sleeves will get longer.

Oh, I'm so in love with 3!!! Perfect.
I would consider 1, but the fabric seem a bit thin?
2 is cute, but not you.

Wow, you are made for wearing dresses, Laura. I like all 3 but #3 gets top vote and then #2. Killer beautiful!

All three are lovely, but I would lose fit and flare. Just not as special as the others. Loooooove #3.

All three are lovely on you, and I especially love dress #3. Angie sure knows how to pick them!

Without reading other comments, I like 1 and 2 best, but 3 is more your style (but does that mean you already have a similar one?) I'm secretly jealous because I know I want 2 and it would not look this good on me.
