Finally taking e-pics!

[alli_esq]

hey! my e-pics (that were postponed literally about 4x already!) are finally today!

I''m totally taking meresal''s advice and getting a drink with FI before the shoot

I have a dumb question though...

After all the questions I had before, I bought a new dress that I''m wearing today...it''s got the color aspect that some people liked, but I think it''s much more flattering than the other blue jersey dress I showed. I brought two pairs of shoes because I can''t quite figure this out. I am wearing this dress...

 

[alli_esq]

No idea why that is so small and I can''t for the life of me resize it

i''m sorry...

anyway, this is the color of the dress...

 

[alli_esq]

Now, my FI is wearing a brown-blue-white striped shirt with a brown belt and brown shoes.

Which of these shoes would you wear?

Shoe 1

 

[alli_esq]

Shoe 2

Tops of both

I tend to go with the black because I think it looks better with the blue--but will that look bad with his brown shoes?

Have I completely lost it???? (I know the answer to this question already, thank you.)

 

[alli_esq]

Is this picture any better of the dress??

 

[kama_s]

I''d do the gold, I personally think it''ll go better with the blue. Plus, it''s nice and summery

 

[cocolaw]

i''m VERY partial to the gold ones....those look better with the dress

 

[CheshireSmile]

I agree- definitely the gold shoes.

I really like that dress, where''d you get it from?

 

[Dreamgirl]

The gold will work. But you can never go wrong with black. Remember however that black and brown can always mix because they are both neutral shades...

Have fun!!!

This is a photo of the dress hanging in my office...

it's a three dots dress--I am obsessed with that designer...these dresses are SO comfy...I buy them when they're on sale in Bloomingdales (if you see my other post, I seriously have like 40 of these dresses. I'm almost as obsessed with cole haan nike air shoes too--both of these pairs of shoes are from that line

)

I''m gonna go with the black. The gold is lovely, but I think black ones are a little sexier.

yeah, I agree that the black ones are sexier--they''re at least .5" taller (maybe even a full inch), and they make my legs look better...

I''m so dumb for not deciding this earlier!!!

And I am such a lunatic for even caring!

 

[rhbgirl24]

the gold ones!

 

[tropiqalkiwi]

From the photos you posted the black ones seem to photograph better.

Plus if you say they make your legs look better....well that would make me choose those in a heartbeat.

So my vote is for the black ones for the e-pics and wear the gold ones for summer-y evenings out on the town (they are very cute and summery!)

 

[goldenstar]

I personally like the black because they are dressier and sexier.

 

[tlh]

I like the black too. I''d want the fun color of the blue to speak for itself.

 

[ilovesparkles]

BLACK! I am having a really hard time imagining the gold ones with your dress actually.

 

[musey]

I prefer the gold with the color of your dress, but I have issues mixing black with blue!

Ditto - another vote for the black.

And another vote for black shoes

 

[alli_esq]

Thanks so much for your input, everyone!!

I went with the black--I figured it was more important to have my legs look their best, hehe...

And WHEW--that shoot was EXHAUSTING! I hope we got a few good shots. My FI and I both have...how do I put this delicately...gigantic noses...and although I trust my photographers, they seemed to do a LOT of profile shots, so I''m really not quite sure how that''s going to turn out

but I suppose I''ll see in a week or two!!!

 

[alli_esq]

oh, and btw--THANK YOU, meresal for the tip about having a drink beforehand! FI was SOOOOO much looser than I expected him to be!

 

[princessplease]

Yay!!!!! I''m glad you had a good time. By the end of our shoot, FI and I were about to pass out!!! We were outside for about 3 hours.
Can''t wait to see the finished photos!!!
