The Maggy London, you should wear a dress and feel special, get the dark blue shoes to match!

I’d say either the Maggy London or the Gap dress–the former’s colors clearly make you happy as you’re the most lit up in them :-) but the Gap one, with a quick run-over with an iron, would look utterly timeless. Either way, it’s pretty win-win.

The first top/pant combo is by far the chicest, but I’m biased against jeans unless they are super-dark denim. If you wanted to add a splash of color and you have a J.Crew near you, these bangles are adorable and worth checking out: http://www.jcrew.com/catalog/product.jhtml?id=prod88466181&catId=cat301254

That Maggie London dress is just adorable, and it’s really flattering on you, too! Love the pockets. That’d definitely be my choice. As for the top/pants, i voted black top/white pants, but only if you’ve got some killer black heels to go with. The Gap dress has lots of potential, as well; it’d be my second choice behind the Maggie London. I agree that jazzing it up with colorful jewelry or bright shoes would make it really current and cute. Good luck, and have so much fun!!

I agree with Elizabeth, you might want to punch up the Gap dress and the black beaded top outfits with a bit of color and those bracelets or any jewelry you love could do it. I think you must love the Maggy London dress, you look like you’re having a lot of fun in it. I like it too!

I think as far as the pants are concerned.. who is the real you? are you a jeans kinda girl or do you always dress up a bit??? you want to reflect the real you RIGHT NOW! so that you can look back later and see who you were today… does that make sense?

if you are planning on making any of your photos black and white, you may want to avoid dark darks that will appear black and light lights that will appear white. Otherwise you may look like floating head and arms. So any midtones work well, gray, blue, green etc…

The Maggie London dress, definitely. Wearing a white dress with visible seams (you can see the brighter white stripes) is just asking for trouble– if the fabric is sheer enough to show seams, the flash could reveal some rather unflattering things! ;) Also I love the pockets and the bright colors.

I prefer the black Gap top, it’s less distracting from your face than the other, more contrast-y one. I agree that if you’re a jeans girl, wear the jeans, but put on some brightly colored shoes if you have them to punch up the outfit!

I love the Maggie London dress, but I’m kinda concerned that the print may be kinda of distracting in the photos. Often photographers ask you to wear something in solid colours so that the focus is on you, not on the clothing.

Could you add something to the white dress - like a necklace or solid coloured cardigan to add some color, without adding pattern?

Either way you’re going to look fabulous!

Floral Maggy London dress DEFINITELY, and the black top/white pants…then I’d pick the Gap dress for some more informal, walk-in-the-park shots (maybe even barefoot?), but it needs something (like a belt, or some colorful jewelry). You might want to consider wearing a slip under the white dress, too, or at least nude-colored undies just in case the lighting does tricky things :)

Gold top with either jeans or white pants (depending on how casual you want to look), and definitely the gap dress. It’s a timeless style that will look classic in the photos, and it lets your beautiful face shine! . The Maggy dress is also cute, but I would be afraid that it will look silly and dated in a few years. And the pattern will compete for attention in the photos. But for now, it’s adorable on you and definitely a keeper for after the event. Good luck!

why can’t i see the results? :(

Ok, I think white gap dress, with a big funky torquoise (sp?) accesories would look great!

Also, I love the simplicity and how timeless the black top and white pants look! Years from now, that will still look really nice.

GL!

I don’t think you want to wear anything too trendy that will look dated 2 years from now (or really, even 6 months from now). I think that for the top and bottoms shoot - you should wear the jeans (I think they fit you better and are more flattering than the white pants) and I do not think you should wear the patterned shirt - but even the black shirt is quite trendy. Do you have a crisp, solid, well tailored t-shirt, oxford, something not trendy? And now, to contradict my non-trendy, not too patterned comments - the Maggy London dress is my favorite of every single choice (dress and top/bottoms).

Technically, I gave a vote for the black top/white pants combination … but, that’s only because I wasn’t too excited about the specific jeans that you put up there. The wash on the thighs/knees is the lightest thing in the entire outfit, and it makes those body parts jump out.

I have to say I **lovelovelove** the Maggy London dress. You look so cute and the pockets will lend themselves to some cute photos too! My second choice would be the Arden B dress — I just don’t think the white Gap dress enhances your natural beauty! And to contrast, I think classic black and jeans is always a winner, so the black beaded top with jeans was my vote!

Don’t forget you’ll have lots of photos of you dressed up at your wedding — it will be nice to have more dressed down options for the e-pics.

I think the grey dress is too light and “non-popping” for photos, and I agree that the floral dress looks best on you. I’m also with Mrs. Onion on the jeans and black top. Definitely the beaded top looks better than the gold one (although that one looks good too!).

How about pairing the gold top with a short skirt of some sort (white or yellow) for your other dressier type pic?
