Help me decide-ETA added another dress

I am going out today to buy my first pair ever of lined tights/ leggings.
Buying these means I can wear dress in the fall/winter.

I have two dresses that I have picked out that I like. They are from Ricki's and are the fit and flare design.

I need help deciding which cold to get, both colours look good on me.

The first one is army green with a paisley print. I absolutely love this but it is only available online.

The second is a wine/purple multi color, that is just new and I love the looks of as well. I will see it in person this afternoon.

First instinct tells me the wine colored one will look good as it is rich toned and will bring out my colouring.

Just found a black fit and flare dress as well. Would this work better?

Cardigans, Blazer, Scarfs, Necklaces.

#2. i love the rich jewel tones. Also I think it is more versitile, and would be easier to find toppers, etc.

I vote # 2 also, if these are your colors. It looks great by itself but then will work with a wider range of colors in tights, footwear, toppers - you can use neutrals or pick up one of more of the dress colors , depending on the occasion.

Both dresses are beautiful. I think #1 is really interesting and I like it a lot but if #2 enhances your coloring, that would make it an easy choice.

I vote #2 as well. Cute dresses!

I like both of them. If it were me I'd get #1. But if #2 is better for your coloring then I think you should get it.

Both have appeal; the pattern of the first is versatile and classic; yet the colors of the second will be easy to work with and coordinate. You can't go wrong.

I like them both, 1 is a wee bit more casual to my eye and 2 the most dressy. I tend to vote for one of the colours rather than black, just because it is more fun!

Thank you everyone for your feedback.

I went to the store today, tried on two of the three dresses.
The verdict is that both the black and the rich jewel toned one did nothing for me.
The jewel color one is a heavy cotton and does not lay correctly. It is very stiff. It was totally not what I was expecting. I will order the green which I have been lusting for a month now. It is an online purchase only.
Thanks again for the feedback.

I hope the green one works for you!
