Loowit Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) My DD's college graduation is this afternoon. I ordered a cute sundress but the company sent me the wrong thing so now I am going with something I already have. I was thinking I could go with this dress but when I put it on it seems way too dressy for an afternoon graduation. It is floor length. I have to leave in about an hour and a half. We are in that PNW so not a very formal area. I also have a black and white floor length skirt with black shirt or a space skirt with lights as an other options. Or I could do jeans and a nice top like DH and DS. I will delete the picture because I dislike it. I am horrible at taking them, but hopefully it gives some idea of the dress and shall I am talking about.

mommyoffive Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Congratulations to your dd! I think that dress is perfect for a graduation. Have a great day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiewindmomma Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 The wrap makes it look formal. Do you have a cardigan that could work instead? Like a white one? Or something pastel? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prairiewindmomma Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Though honestly, the flip side of the PNW is that you can wear whatever the heck you want and no one bats an eye. The grey shawl really is gorgeous. Do what you want. 🙂 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loowit Posted May 6, 2023 Author Share Posted May 6, 2023 Thanks everyone. I don't have any cardigans, so maybe I will just take a jacket to wear. The dress is sleeveless and it is on the cool side today. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEmama Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) I didn't see the dress but floor length would be totally out of place here at New Englands private schools. Most people dress way more casual. I'd opt for the jeans (or mid type skirt) and cute top with cute shoes. Maybe your area is more fashionable, though Edited May 6, 2023 by MEmama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
