i love the skirt in the first one but not the top and i love the dress so chose the dress. the only reason why i did not choose the first choice was because i hated the color lol not the style

I have to say dress cause I dont like to pair up brown/black. I love the style though of the first one, just not the color combination.

I have to concur with everyone. I LOVE that top but the only thing I could see myself pairing with it is jeans and the one thing he asked is for me to wear a skirt.

What's the occasion?

If I had the pick between the two and I was about to go out on the town (And bewbies), I'd prob pick outfit one :tu

Please don't think that I'm being super evil... but IMO... both are a little tooo revealing for homecoming and you have to think that your guy is coming from a country where women are lucky to show their hair... so it's going to be a shock for him to see you dressed like that, both outfits are pretty and I like number 2 better but if I were you I would wait till you get him home to wear either....

You're not being mean. You're just sharing your opinion.

He actually picked out the first top. But he asked for a skirt and I'm having a hard time matching it. So I thought the dress would be better since it's something I can just put some shoes with.

That's truly a personal opinion type of outfit. I'm not a total prude, but I don't think either one really meshes well with a homecoming. Maybe homecoming night when you all are in your own home, but it's, I dunno the right term...s&m-ish? for daylight hours.

Completely my OWN opinion on it though. Don't let me suck the fun out of your outfit if you really want to wear it. :lol

:chest It's all good homie! I want honest opinions. I mean I know our style isn't for everyone. He wants me to get dressed up and when we get dressed up my style tends to be form fitting, low cut, kinda Gothic/Celtic. Flowing skirts, heels, things like that. It's not for everybody because well everyone is different.

I think there is too many things going on the the first combo. I'd go forthe dress.

well crap. the top has brown. i can't say i've ever seen a brown pencil skirt.. but i'll look

...and just for the record- can i just say that skirt is atrocious?? OMG..

*.:Hope:.*
05-13-2008, 11:52 AM
well if he picked the first top, maybe a denim skirt with brown heels.

I'm not a fan of it either. At least not with that top. MAYBE with a black tank. But I sent him a couple of tops and he liked this one and another one. The other one doesn't come in my size right now so that's the only one I'd be able to wear.

I REALLY only see the first top with a brown skirt...but all the ones I could find were too long for his taste.

I've had fun with this. Like we shopped together for my homecoming outfit (online). It was a nice bonding experience for us while he was gone.

EEK! He's coming home!!!!

That's the thing. He's taking me somewhere for dinner and he won't tell me where. He just said no denim!

Do I really wanna buy a skirt I'll only wear with one top though? That limits my wardrobe and I hate that.

For curiosity sake here's the website:

That is one of my favorite online stores!!!!!! I like the red dress pair it with a pretty shawl and its perfect.

I would not worry about culture shock he has been around military women right? They aren't 100% covered up all the time. I have never experienced Iraq though only Kuwait, and Dubai/UAE plenty of women not 100% covered in those areas. I still think it is fine though on the culture shock issue. I would imagine he wants to see you looking all sexy for him and he knows your style because he knows you. (sorry was thinking out loud)

You're totally right. I LOVE that site. I bought the red dress. Me, Traci, and Cassie are going to Prime Outlets to pick out shoes.

I think she means for dinner didn't you say before that he didn't tell you WHERE you were going just that denim was not the way to go. (as in a jean skirt)

ah. yes. My bad. I got some "don't embarrass your man and wear some clothes" pms (not from her) so my guard was up.
