this shirt I did buy-- I just couldn't resist how it made me feel like a movie spy. My hips aren't that uneven- I just have been standing crooked

Kim, looks like you've got your answer.

I like the green dress and the black shirt too. The blue one is sweet, but seems sort of ordinary. I'd pass on the blue but get the green! Your figure is killer, wow!

sigh, I guess I'll be going back to Dress Barn tomorrow to exchange the blue for the green. In the dressing room I liked the blue one, but after seeing the pics I agree with both of you.
amazing how that works....

Yes I agree the green dress and the black blouse have great potential for layering. A denim jacket would look pretty over each.
The blue dress is pretty but as Marriana said a bit ordinary and you have a beautiful waist to show off.

Well, I prefer the blue dress to the green, but definitely agree that the black top is fab.

I love them all! I actually particularly love the blue one on you. Something about the v-neck and banded waist looks amazing on your figure.

Can you get both dresses? Both of them look great on you and flatter your figure. They look like great summer dresses and I'm sure you would get lots of use out of them. The black top is a no-brainer, you are sizzling hot in that!

argh- I wish you guys could all agree on something
No, I shoudn't do both right now. I need to space my summer shopping out over the next few months. After seeing the pics, I was leaning toward the green, plus the blue is a deep v in both front and back, so a cami would be a must-- not very fab once it hits 90 degrees. I do prefer sleevelss, and I think a denim jacket would be better over the green than the blue after thinking it through.
i'm definitely keepig the black top- it was on clearance for $10 and I really liked it.
I'm going to try the blue on again in my room, but I do think it's going to go back. Sorry Kyle and Lee ;-(
It's hard work being a girl!!!

Keep the green and black one for sure. It looks very stylish and fits you well.

The blue one has a flattering it, but overall it doesn't look as fab as the other. It also could possible be shortened a little.

I think the green one looks more 'current', whereas the blue one has a very 'familiar' look.

Love that black blouse! Sounds like you'll have fun wearing it too.

Love both dresses but if you have to keep only one, I'd keep the green one. More hip, modern and fun. Kim, you HAVE to tell me where you got that shirt!! I've been looking for something like that for a while now. It is beautiful. SCORE!

I love both dresses and the shirt, but I think my preference is for the green one, too. I'm going to need summer day dresses too, but I thought this was too early to look. Is this a good time to shop for that sort of thing?

okay, I'm keeping the green- I like the way you put it sara- you're right.
Vani- all three of those items were at Dress Barn. It is quickly becoming my favorite place to shop for frocks

Tricia- the stores definitley are getting their summer stuff in (actually more like spring). Right after Christmas they clear out the winter and start bringing in the spring.

I think that's a good decision. The blue dress is really pretty too though. It's just not as funky. I think it could come up an inch or two.

The black blouse is gorgeous on you, you do look like a movie spy!

Fun to see as I have been watching for dresses and skirts online...my mom would be so proud!
I love them both. I guess the only difference to me is that the second one may be more versatile. It does seem like more of a "YLF style" dress that you could style many different ways.
Love your "spy" top! Too funny! It does look great on you! (I bet your husband likes it too!)Your next profile pic you should wear it with sunglasses and a sexy spy woman wig! Do you have an alias?

Great choices! The black shirt makes your figure look SO amazing, and I agree with the majority: the green dress is super flattering in color and fit. Score!
