pinkdiamonddolly Posted May 27, 2011 #1 Share Posted May 27, 2011 OK, I seriously need some opinions here, I am torn between 2 dresses, I love the tulle bottom, but I am worried it looks a bit young (I am not a 1st time bride) My only criteria is a tea length or shorter dress and its has to be bright white because I am dismal in ivory. This is for a beach wedding in St Thomas. Let me know what you think, Thanks, Dolly:) or Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soon2BeMrsI Posted May 27, 2011 #2 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I LOVE it! I think it's great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acireta Posted May 27, 2011 #3 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I love the first one with the flowery skirt, but they're both very pretty! I'm sure you'd look great in either. Follow your gut! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bride2Be0911 Posted May 27, 2011 #4 Share Posted May 27, 2011 They are both gorgeous! It doesn't matter if you are in your 20's, 30's or 80's...wear what you love and you will look beautiful! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyGem Posted May 27, 2011 #5 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Both are gorgeous, but I would prefer the first because I think it's a little more sophisticated. However, I'm not the bride- you are- so don't worry about "age" - just go with whichever makes you feel happiest when you put it on (maybe ask a trusted friend to see you model both for her).

jstluvem Posted May 27, 2011 #6 Share Posted May 27, 2011 They are both beautiful....the 1st is my choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artemis908 Posted May 27, 2011 #8 Share Posted May 27, 2011 How do they look on you? From my experience something can look great in a picture or on the rack, but it's a completely different experience when you've tried them on. How do you feel when you have them on? They both look great, though I think I prefer the first one. The second one looks very ballerina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoncom Posted May 27, 2011 #9 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Agree with Artemis.First even looks Tropical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovepea Posted May 27, 2011 #10 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I love the second one more. Although the first is very pretty too! I actually think that the first looks "younger" than the second. Also... may I ask, where did you find these dresses? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted May 27, 2011 #11 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE #1....the 2nd one is pretty, too, but looks like more of an "inside" dress. Go with #1...it's not "too young"..it's just right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6rugrats Posted May 27, 2011 #12 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I'd vote for the first one. Very pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieRose Posted May 27, 2011 #13 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I like the second one. LOVE the corset top. Well, I guess they're both corset tops but the second looks like it from the front too. I find the swirls on the bottom of the first one to be kinda weird looking, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6rugrats Posted May 28, 2011 #14 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I find the swirls on the bottom of the first one to be kinda weird looking, personally. With a name like JulieRose, I would think you'd have noticed the bottom of the first dress is flowers :)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBlackDress Posted May 28, 2011 #15 Share Posted May 28, 2011 with all the opinions you are getting I guess you are still stuck. my 2 cents... I like the halter better than the strapless. Strapless to me reads younger, and also can be uncomfortable to keep lifting it up (I have yet to see a strapless dress so flawless it stays up all day/night without a pull and tug here and there) I also agree with lovepea that the first one looks younger. With all that said tho... a bridal dress is something you have to love and for the most part are ageless in style go with the one you like best on you.

Still think it's weird looking. I can't help what my hippie parents named me ;). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBear416 Posted May 28, 2011 #17 Share Posted May 28, 2011 They're both beautiful dresses, I can see why your torn. I would go with the first one. The first dress is more sophisticated looking. The second dress is beautiful, but, I think you'd look more like a ballerina than a bride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, OP, only you know what looks best on you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klauer Posted May 29, 2011 #19 Share Posted May 29, 2011 I'm sure that you could have either spaghetti straps or halter ties added to the first dress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkdiamonddolly Posted May 30, 2011 Author #20 Share Posted May 30, 2011 LOL I seriously had to laugh at the ballet tutu comment, I actually took ballet for 18 years, maybe thats the appeal for me, thank you tendenitis for killing my dream career LOL, I think I am actually going to order the first one too, neither are expensive the first came from eastbridal.com and the second came from idresslove.com I just refuse to pay a fortune for a dress that will only be worn for a few hours, but I still want it to look great. Yeah I have unrealistic expectations, but thats just me. Thanks for the help everyone, it really is appreciated:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they have good return policies, maybe u could get them both, try them on and return the one u don't like? I do believe that dresses look different on the hanger than on us... I hated my dress on the hanger, but once it was on me, it was IT.... again, don't know if that's even possible, but just a thought :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want to do trash the dress pics so whatever I don't wear for the wedding I will use for the pictures. I do love these websites though, because I am thrifty to the core LOL!!!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
