    Hi Bees - I need major help, I am torn between two dresses!  Which dress do you like best?

     

    Option 1 - Strapless white lace dress 

    Option 2 - Vintage sleeved lace dress (picture is dark b/c it was taken with phone)

    I usually lean towards sleeves, but that strapless one looks better on you IMO.

    Love the strapless! Looks a lot like my dress except yours is blingier.

    I usually like strapless dresses too--but I like the sleeves dress better between these two.  Good luck!

    Ohh I love the sleeves!  I think that dress is much more original than the other one and it definitely stands out!  Plus, the embellishment on that dress really flatters your tiny waistline!

    Sleeves, most definitely!

    The neckline of the dress with sleeves is very flattering on you! Love it!

    I like the V-neck on the dress with sleeves but don't like how my eyes are drawn straight to your boobs and how there is that rounded line where the cups are and then it's sheer. I just got drawn straight to your chest! I like the strapless but i thnk if you made it into more of a sweetheart and added a splashy belt it'd be perfect.

    I'm torn because I like the sleeves and neckline of the second dress, but don't like the rest of the dress.  I don't like how the lace overlay seems very separated from the underlayer and the lace doesn't seem as nice. 

    I wish you could take the top part of the second dress and put it on the first dress!

    Both dresses compliment you very well, but I voted for the strapless because I think that one looks the best! Really really beautiful. I hope you get it!

    I have to go with the sleeves. It seems like every bride has a strapless dress (probably 80% of the pics I see online and the real brides at the weddings I go to) and I am always refreshed when I see a bride going her own direction.

    I normally will always vote for the dress with straps but in your case I think the strapless dress give you a rockin' figure :)

    I think the straps on the dress hang off your shoulders a bit too much giving you a broader look (and I can definitely tell you don't actually have broad shoulders!).

    It's a close call for me, but I like the strapless a little better, it's a perfect fit!  I feel the 'sleeves' on the other might fall off your shoulder.

    I really like #1, but I can't be partial because it is very simialr to my dress. I also went inbetween a strapless lace and v-neck. I think both look great on you though and go with your gut!

    you look equally amazing in both. I just like the sleeves one better as a dress.

    Both dresses are very pretty! You have great taste! But I'm gonna have to go with #1, because the strapless dress makes you look great.  With the first dress, I focus more on you. And with the second, I focus more on the dress, if that makes sense. 

    Plus, I think if you wanted to add a sweetheart neckline or a little accent to the dress you could get the best of both worlds :)

    I like the second one, you look gorgeous in it...it compliments your shape...  I honestly don't like that strapless one much at all...but maybe it's the way you're standing?  The V neck line just looks beautiful on you!

    I'm not a huge fan of the embellishment of the second one, without the rhinestone center thing, that would be my fave but bc of it, I'm voting for number one...Both are gorgeous tho!

    I like both, the sleeves but the skirt on the strapless.

    I vote strapless!!!   Laughing
