I have no good decision making skills

...so I need you, friends, to help me decide what to wear tonight.

Context: The family that Sam used to nanny for throws a Burns Night supper/shindig every year. Tonight is this shindig, at their fancy pants Upper West Side apartment.

I have to wear a dress, obviously, but which one?

Either dress will be worn with a black 3/4 sleeve cardigan and black tights (because that is what I have on hand).

1) Yellow dress with brown, high-heeled boots. Would probably be worn with black cardigan.


2) Yellow dress with black, flat boots


3) Green dress, seen here in earlier, warmer days (would again wear black boots):
"

I'm leaving for said supper in about 2 hours, so...I'll just be over here, switching back and forth between the dresses until it's time to go or one of you tells me what to wear.

Are there supposed to be pictures showing up?

Also, I didn't know what Burns Night was, so I had to google it, and I am thoroughly charmed by the tradition.

Oh balls. Flickr fail -- will fix momentarily.

ok, I love the yellow dress a LOT, like where did you get it, but I vote green, mostly because I always have a hard time negotiating the placement of that kind of collar with a cardigan. It looks slightly more evening-y to me, too.

And I think I have that same pair of pink tights.

Ooh, now I've got 2 other votes in favor of yellow and your conflicting one on green...green dress may lose on account of sudden terrible static cling (not a problem in the summertime photo!)

Yellow dress also comes in black and purple from ModCloth (http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Blog/Fall+Flavors/Squash/Soda+Fountain+Dress+in+Ginger) -- it's the first thing I've given in and bought there (along with this pillow (http://www.modcloth.com/store/ModCloth/Apartment/Decor/Decor+Accessories/Polish+Hill+Pillow)) after literally years of lusting after dresses there. Only downside: Unlined cotton is not warm. Will be wearing 2 pairs of tights.

ooh, I did not consider static cling. Totally forgot about that one! I would go with yellow then. It is super super super cute.

I know it's too late to vote, but I just have to say that I adore the yellow address. You know how to work it, little sister :).

Thanks just the same! Went for the yellow with black boots, resolving to pretend that I didn't feel like a bee -- and it turns out that, with 2 pairs of tights and some long johns on top, the cold was barely a problem. Hoorah! *snugs*
