Ohio12 Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 anyone want to weigh in (kindly please) about what I should wear to an event with my husband tomorrow. you can check out my blog post. it is mostly meant as funny, i don't take myself too seriously. it is so weird to get older and not be able to figure out what to wear and what is appropriate and flattering anymore. http://ohio12.blogspot.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Peregrine Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I like #1. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikeBookBread Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I used to be a clothes horse...Nordy's. Now I'm more the REI kind of gal. My Mom HATES it! I liked all of them. The long shorts/shoulder top is REALLY cute. I wish I could pull it off. BTW, I love your blog, and that artwork in the next post down is GORGEOUS! I just added the artist as a <3 on etsy. Thanks for the link! Have fun tomorrow night... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardening momma Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 If the 3 dresses are an indication of what the event with your dh is like, I would definitely not go with the shirt/shorts combo. They look too casual for even a beach wedding. I like #3, but it looks too high in the waist for you, so I'd go with #1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coralloyd Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Go for #1, very cute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigitte Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I think #1 is the most flattering, by far. I think it would be fine for a beach wedding, too. Just wear flats for the beach. And, for the record, 34 is not over the hill. You are young and gorgeous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhudson Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I like the shorts outfit but would fear it is not dressy enough. I liked #1 the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohio12 Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 If the 3 dresses are an indication of what the event with your dh is like, I would definitely not go with the shirt/shorts combo. They look too casual for even a beach wedding. I like #3, but it looks too high in the waist for you, so I'd go with #1. To clarify, I wouldn't wear the shorts to the wedding. I would have to keep looking for something else for that. Thanks for weighing in everyone. I do like the first one but feel uncomfortable in the strapless. AND the first one was by far the most expensive. I will keep thinking about it...now off to wax off my unibrow...that is a good idea no matter what I wear!

2cents Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 #1 looks marvelous! It looks fantastic with your coloring and those shoes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpklehm Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Yep, I agree with #1...it looks the best on you. #3 is too high in the waist and makes it look too short for you; it's not as flattering on you as #1. Wear flats to the beach wedding with dress #1 and you're good to go. The shorts outfit is really cute but a little too casual for both events, but I would keep it anyway and wear it out for evening outings with dh and children (i.e., symphony on the grass, dinner and a movie, etc.). Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamturner Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I think #1 would work for both occasions and it is the most flattering. For the beach a strappier lower heeled shoe. Maybe you could find a necklace that would work and you wouldn't feel so bare. You can totally pull off the strapless. I wish I still could and I probably could have back when I was ONLY 34!

mommaduck Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 #1 for both occasions. It's the most flattering on your figure and the most appropriate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 One is great. You look young and fun! Twenty years from now it won't be quite so fabulous. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
