Coppin' a squat. Those shoes will do me in, I think, in a couple of hours.
If I were to wear this one, I would have to trot out today and find black shoes to go with it. Of course, I have no problem going out and doing so, but I really am not in the mood to shop today. So, please don't chastise me over the white heals in this picture. I know they don't "work".
Chief seems much more relaxed with me in a new dress . . . I keep telling him he's an insecure over-40-something wanting eye-candy that simply no longer exists in me. But, he insists I'm his girl and he's happy keeping me in his arms and by his side . . . and, well, I liked him telling me I looked beautiful. Hence, the two dresses. :)NOTE: I just got back from the NEX and got black heels, hose (in nude and black), and a white and a black scarf/wrap. I can go with either dress . . . I'll let Chief say so in the end, I think. It's his night . . . but I want to wear the white 'cos it's the first dress I saw and fell for . . . and even Teenie said it was more slimming than the black one (good girl; to say both are nice on me, but. . . ). Plus, Teenie wants those white heels when I refuse to wear them any longer. Geesh. I think by that time she'll be taller and have bigger feet than me. I'm 6.5 or 7. Thanks for all your lovely compliments. I plan on having Teenie snap some pics before we head out.

I like the black one. Go get some shoes!
I'm torn... I do like them both... really liking the white shoes! Hope you can keep them on for a few hours! : ) Have a great time with your sweetie!
I like them both, and you look great in them!! Have a great time!
I really like the white one, I think because it seems so different, the black one is pretty too, but you'd make an entrance in that white one, it looks more Hawaiian!!
Those shoes make me cringe, just thinking about my broken leg....flats, go with flats!! :)
Love both dresses, but I agree with the white one! Have a great time!
If you're looking for demure and sweet go with the black. The white one looks more 'joyful' so I'd go with it...think it's even slimming (that oughta sell it).
blessings and hugs,
marcy
Sarah, I like the white dress, too. (I actually like both =) But I think you're leaning toward the white one, and I'd say go.for.it! The white is pretty, and it's also a little unique, and you already have shoes to match ... Have fun at the Khaki Ball tonight! Take a photo or two for us =) Oh, and it was so sweet of your chief to get the dresses for you so that you will look and feel beautiful—what a guy!
I prefer the white dress, too. I does look more Hawaiian - maybe because we where black so often on the mainland??
Also, when one is 'not in the mood to shop', one is better off not shopping ... just my humble opinion.
Have fun at the Ball!
Yes, I know it's 'wear', not 'where'. Seems my pregnancy brain is getting the best of me this whole darn week.
You look beautiful in both of the dresses :-)
both of them are gorgeous.
where'd you end up getting the dresses?
I got the dresses at Macy's, actually. $84 each. I know, but I just dropped about $55 for black heels and another $15 for the two scarves/wraps (one black, one white) so this dern shindig is getting expensive. I told Chief . . . . I'm leaning toward the black because . . . it is humid as hell today and I do not wish to tarnish the white dress with pit stains the first time I wear it. It is the more flattering of the two, which makes this a sticky choice. Well, you'll all find out which when I get the pics posted this weekend for Monday's post. No weekend blogging for this gel. I'm doing so good with that. Oh, gosh, though, I just love LOVE that white one. I think I'll have to go with it. My mind is in two right now. But, the kids are eating chicken divan and their treat is either rocky road or mint chip ice cream. I'm such a spoiler!
Great dresses! Hope you have a wonderful time.
You look radiant in the white one...go for it and save the black one for something in the fall/winter. Whatever you choose...ENJOY!
You look stunning! You are a natural beauty. Either dress is nice. I think I like the white one more - if I were to have to buy ONE of them, I'd buy the white one. My feet wouldn't last two MINUTES in high heels like that - bunions you see. Rob bought me a dress once - he picked it out and everything - gave it to me for my birthday - that was 11 years ago I think. I still have it and fit into it too! :-)
God bless and have fun Sarah and Chief!
White is my choice...
And hubby is telling you something here. He wants to see you all dressed up and looking glamorous.
You look lovely in both dresses!!!
Wellll......which one did you go for?
Come on..we're all waitin!
For a ball, I would have went with the white one and for church or a nice night to dinner with my hubby..the dark one..both pretty!
LUV them both on you and you look so lovely!
I'd say go with the white!
Love the white dress and the dancing shoes! You look very festive and beautiful! I think I feel a dancing shoe poem coming on...
