Dress Heaven

I've got a few events coming up this year and I am really needing to add some new dresses into the mix.  The 2012 calendar includes multiple weddings that I will attend as a guest, as well as a bbridal shower + bachelorette party + rehearsal dinner + wedding of which I am a bridal party member!  (So I am not lyin' when I say I need to up my dress game this year)!

In the process of my hunt for the perfect dresses, I've found four that have my heart going "pitter patter".   Dress #1 makes my list because of the eye-catching color and the back detail (but offset by the length so as not to look too scandalous), Dress #2 catches my eye because of the gorgeous slate blue color and the open back, which works for small chested girls like me.  The third dress would be PERFECT for a night time event, classy but different, and peplum is making a huge comeback at the moment.  Lastly, dress #4 would be beautiful for a bridal shower or daytime event, but the price tag is a little steep for such a bold patter.

Which is your favorite?  Where would you wear each dress?

Black dresses are the quintessential closet staple.  They are the easiest piece that there is to use in an emergency dressing situation, and depending on how they are styled, they can be both dressed up or dressed down with relative ease.  Today I wanted to showcase a dressed up, classic look.  Lately, I have been really inspired by Krystal at This Time Tomorrow and I think this is definitely a look that she would rock (in fact, I think she has these shoes and sunglasses already!)
