The top one sems more like evening wear. The bottom one might be appropriate if you dressed it down. It would look cute with metallic gladiator sandals (flats) or flat grecian tie around the ankle types. I guess it depends what kind of graduation and what time of day.

| Both are very nice, but I've always had a fondness for the grecian style. It might be more comfortable if you don't need a special bra. Get some ribbon to secure your flip flops on your feet, turning them into sandals. |

Heather, you go girl with the flip flop. There are no rules! If you lived close by I'd lend you on of my tutu's! Hey cowgirl, no cowboy boots?

Well it may be too hot... over 100...but if they move it inside, I might just change my mind. I am looking for some nice one's though..I might ask for some as a gift. I have my eye on a certain pair.

honestly, i think either of them would work. you may be dressed a bit better than the other ladies, but not in a way that is too showy. i prefer the top one because of its simplicity. the maxi dress is back in, so the lenth doesn't make it evening anymore.

I want something special. You can dress as you please. This is a BIG day for me so I wanted something dressy. I never went to my prom or anything fancy, so this is my chance. : )

I think it depends on what the other women wear. Do you know what they will be wearing? Personally I wouldn't want to be too dressy or too casual. That's just me.
I think the first one is best...love them all!

You can come as you want. OBVIOUSLY, proper dress dictates but there is something like 2000 grads each night. This is all about me!! : ) And Cheryl...I just might bring my lasso and give a YEE HAW when I get my diploma!!! ; O I don't mind being too dressy. I like to stand out. : )

I agree with you! This is your night and you worked very hard for it. Pick the dress you love and go for it. Do not worry about what anyone else is wearing. You shine! Or is that do the bling thing? And if you are comfortable with cowgirl boots go for it. I think it says a lot about personality! Why try and look like everyone else. Be sure and get a ton of pics and a night on the town/dinner. You earned it.
Find your joy and live it. http://cheneybaglady.blogspot.com/http://www.kpaints.etsy.com http://www.thevintagebaglady.etsy.com FG #377 |
