My concerns...
- Is black ok?
- Most dresses are really short on me because my legs are so long
- I'd love to hide my oversized-knees, if I can, since people will be watching me
- My shower is march 27, is it going to be too cold for a 'little party dress'?
- Sundresses just don't look right on me, ever
- Are there dresses out there that are longer but not granny-looking or too gownish? if so where?
- Can I wear dress pants and a party top? or is that too casual?
If your party is going to be a cocktail party, then you don't need to worry about being too traditional. Wearing nice pants and a party top would actually fit into this theme. Plus, the weather will most likely be cold. You are the bride and you need to be most comfortable :)
