T-minus one week until Grace Ormonde’s book release party of “Being in love never goes out of style,” and I am doing what any girl would do at this point: freaking out about WHAT TO WEAR. Because, clearly, that is the most important thing about going to such a party.

The invitation I received reads “Join the who’s who of Connecticut at a VIP Book Launch Party for Grace Ormonde’s much-anticipated, hardcover book: Grace Ormonde Weddings – “being in love never goes out of style.” Not sure when *I* got placed on those “who’s who” list, but when I received the invitation there was no question as to whether or not I would be in attendance. Of course, dressed to the nines. And thus begun to search for the perfect dress. Well, not really. Because I received the invitation a while ago but have had ZERO time to shop, so I shopped in my mind. And we all know that never works out. So as fate would have it, I started getting nervous last week when I realized the party was only 10 days away and I *still* had NO IDEA what I would be wearing. In between portrait sessions that were oh-so-strategically located near the mall, I began the hunt for the perfect dress. But, alas, when I got to the mall I found none of the dresses I saw in the store of Alicia’s brain. *sigh* After frantically rummaging through just about every rack in just about every women’s store, I found 3 dresses that I was semi pleased with. Not 1, but 3. And since then I have been going back and forth as to which dress I should wear.

Enter you.

I thought to myself “I have anywhere from 200 to 800 people who visit my blog everyday. Why don’t I let THEM choose.” So my friends, whether you are an outspoken blog reader or one of those lurking in the shadows of my blog, today is your day to step up and make a statement. I am in desperate need of you help. Because, clearly, this whole dress-deciding thing is not my forté.

Below are 3 views of each of the 3 dresses. You can click the images to see them enlarged. And below each dress are my comments. Please, please, please help this photographer in choosing the *perfect* dress for this VIP event that I am SUPER excited about! Because, you know, right after the dress is chosen I need to find the *perfect* pair of shoes!

Ps- Forgive me for not putting on any makeup at all today and just throwing my hair in a ponytail for these!
