[ILoveMyAbbyGirl]

It's CUTE!! I'm not much of a dress wearer... but I still pick out ones that I think are pretty.. I like it Jynelle. :)

[micki76]

Very pretty! I think it looks great on you. :)

[tikeyas_mom]

thanks.. But I am leaning toward another one. I feel so stuck in that one lol. it is really tite. lol ..

I would go for something a little less 'flashy' for graduation. I mean, I wouldn't want to stick out like a sore thumb. Do you know what the other girls in your class are wearing?
If it's too tight I wouldn't wear it. Is it tight enough where it might rip when you get out of your seat to get your diploma? :eek:

[Soledad]

Your God mom was total babe bride.:D

[popcornbird]

:eek:

I like the top...........but the bottoms quite see-thru and flashy.....not something *I* would wear, especially to a graduation. :p I agree. Maybe something a little less flashy. :p

THATS ME!! :o :o :o :eek:

It's very pretty, but not necessarily the kind of thing I would consider wearing at graduation. I'd have to agree with Kater, perhaps a bit too flashy. I'd go for something more subtle and comfortable, something that you wouldn't mind wearing if you went out to eat or something afterwards.

...And if you think it's too tight, don't even think about it! ;)

[Desert Arabian]

If any girl from my school showed up to graduation in a dress like that, they would never make it to the stage. :eek: :eek:

Um.......wow.....um.......flashy........

[Soledad]

I know it's you, but that's a very daring bridal dress. It takes guts these days to avoid the totally poofy concoctions they put out there.

But, yeah, you're a babe, too!:)

[tikeyas_mom]

hahahah YLL, People at my school wear worse things ;).

[slleipnir]

My friend wore hospital pants to her grad..lol. I like it, it looks nice. Maybe not to a grad though?

[Kfamr]

I dunno.. A bit too short, tight, and see-through. I don't think that'd pass at my school.

Are you going to be wearing a gown over it?

I'd think a long, black dress would be better -- that's what most wore to my sister's Graduation.

[Tonya]

It looks very beautiful on you! I think that it depends on the area that you live in. My highschool graduation was in 1996 (ages ago) and the average attire for girls were sundresses. That seems more prom like to me. -But, if the people dress up where you are from, wear it! It looks great on you!

maybe I made my self not so clear lol, I will not be wearing it to the grad seramony, only to the grad DANCE!!...

[Kfamr]

Yeah, You said nothing aobut the Dance in your first post. :p

Still a bit too short for my likeing, but hey -- whatever floats your boat.

[Tonya]

Ok! Go for it! I think it's a cool funky style. I don't think it's to sheer or tight from the pic. -Not anymore then any other dresses. I can't tell if it is to short.

[tikeyas_mom]

it is to my knees, BUT the silky see through lacing is down to my feet.

[luckies4me]

To a dance it should be fine. I love it! It's your last dance and what better way to look then cute like that! :)

But to a graduation ceremony it's a little too much.

That dress is a little like what I want to wear when I get married. ;)

[micki76]

Do you have a pic of the other dress that you're thinking of wearing? I really like this one. It doesn't look tight, but if you're uncomfortable maybe another dress would be better.

[stacwase]

I think it looks very nice! You'll have a cap and gown on, so nobody will see it until the graduation party anyway. I don't know about your school's graduation parties, but the girls at these schools wear things like that.

[Tina]

I think it looks good on you:) But if you don't think your going be comfortable. Then maybe you should pick another dress.

[Amber]

I love it! It is adorable for a dance! I think you should wear it for the dance

I really don't see what's so flashy about this dress. Unless you're Amish.:p ;)

Have to say that I don't either. I guess it would be for a 13-14 yr old or younger, but this is a Graduation dance that she's going to. Seems perfectly normal to me.

[Amber]

I agree, nothing flashy at all. She said the skit goes to her knees, and the white thingy reaches the ground. Whats wronge that? I think its a nice dress

[HoRsELUvR]

I think it's a really pretty dress.i dont know anything about what people wear to graduation dances,so i couldnt say if u should wear it or not.

Wow, what a pretty dress!! It looks really tite!!:)

[Nomilynn]

Having been to a grad celebration in BC, I can say that the dress would be totally appropriate for grad :) Up here, we don't have "prom". We have "grad" which is the same thing as prom, and our actual graduation ceremony is called commencement. So, I think it's fine for your grad :) I would like to see the other one you are thinking of, though!

[tikeyas_mom]

here is a link to the possible other dress I will wear...

I would get it in black though :)

[Twisterdog]

I like the second one, for prom.

[kohala]

You would look really good in the red, with your coloring, WOW. But the black would be nice, too. The white dress - no disrespect - well, I don't care for the sheer skirt only because I don't like the way it's attached - it looks like an after thought. Maybe if you had a pic of the whole dress, it has have more continuity in the design. That's just my taste, tho - I'd like the sheer skirt if it was added a little higher, and kind of layered down, like three or four layers, short on top, then a little longer, etc.
It's just my sense of design. The fit is very good on you, though. NOT too tight, the slight folding indicate it moves a little on you, which is good.
Guess who used to design and make one-of-a-kinds? :D :D
Been a while since I created, but the design sense is still intact.
I'd go for the red - sorry - black.
Hope you have a great time!!!!!

If it was my choice I'd go for the second one. Depends on your style of dress - you want something that suits your personality and also, MOST important, something that you are comfortable in.

On final thought - If you are spending loads of money, NEVER underestimate the power of the "LITTLE BLACK DRESS" - a classic shift-style black short sleeve or sleeveless dress. I was a bridesmaid about 10 years ago, and the bride made her bridesmaids wear a classic-cut "Jackie O" style black knee-length dress. The photos were stunning, and (until I put on weight 3 years ago) I ALWAYS had the perfect semi-formal/formal dress in my wardrobe!

I mention this because with the back dress, I got 7 years wear out of it wheras my Matric Farewell dress (like graduation) was SILVER and PURPLE and ruched all over (Hey guys, it WAS the '80s) - It cost me a fortune and I NEVER wore it again.

[Soledad]

I don't like the second one. It's too poofy. :p

[EssTer]

I think it´s very nice dress and it looks very cute on you, but I think it´s not for school graduation patry :) :rolleyes:

[EssTer]

Second one is good :)

[2kitties]

I like them both and think you look lovely in the first one. The second is beautiful as well and I'm sure you'd be amazing in it.
But, possibly the fact that the first one is sort of an heirloom type dress will make it more *special* and appropriate for graduation?? I'm sure your God Mother would feel wonderful that you wanted to wear her dress.
Only you know what type of dress is normal for your high school dance- all high schools are different. Choose what you like and what makes you feel special. You'll remember this day always.

[tikeyas_mom]

I think I am going to go with the second one the red dress. I will get it is black though. maybe I'll even wear it again, which is unlikely. lol. I might just rent it for a night, but I cant spill anything on it ugh, And I want o party after the dance. hummm... still dibating lol

[Soledad]

Ooohh...I like this (http://www.calitoprom.com/straight/1056.html) !

I'm very anti-poof. If I was going to prom, I'd pick something that would set me apart and all the girls go poofy.

[binka_nugget]

Ooohh...I like this !

[ILoveMyAbbyGirl]

I love the red one Jynelle! But in black it would be even better! You have a good fashion sense. :p
