thanks to alphafrog for posting those dresses. in my book, three of those dresses could possibly work, depending on your campus and your personal style and look:
dress #1-cute, can't really tell much about the fabric. that style of dress with a little bit dressier fabric might work for prefs. the shoes are definately "what not to wear" with that dress!! strappy, heeled sandals would look much better.
dress #2 a little bohemian but with flair. a pretty dress;worn with some flat, strappy sandals this could be a great outfit. if you are petite this might not be the dress for you, due to the large print and the length, but try it on before you make a decision.
dress #3-too earth mother/1960's for my taste. fabric looks kind of cheap. cheap fabric can do a lot to give away the cost of an outfit. the dress doesn't seem to fit the model well under the arms. no matter what, make sure your clothes fit properly-even if you have to alter them a bit once you get them home.
dress #4-darling!! just make sure that the tops fits and covers you properly!!
my daughter is home for spring break and we were doing some clothes shopping. another girl was trying on a sundress while my daughter was in the dressing room. daughter said that the girl was quite well endowed and the dress did not cover her properly. both the girls mom and the sales lady were raving that the dress looked terrific on her-my daughter told me later that it did not flatter the girl at all. luckily the girl took a good long look in the mirror and decided that it was not the dress for her. so go with your instincts, don't let any sales lady talk you into buying something you know does not look good!!
