1st: black and red sheer fabric printed to look like delicate black lace over red, over a lining of pure red. Handkerchif hem with the longest points just below the knee the shortest parts just bearly above... problem is it has spaghetti straps. The overall dress isn't clubby or anything and the neck line is straight across and not low cut.. so I think it looks pretty classy but I've read admonitions not to go spaghetti or strapless.. so... what do y'all think ?
2nd dress: Some of you may have seen it at Express.. it's severak shades pink small floraly pattern with a drapy cowel neck and little cap sleeves... flowy skirt to about mid calf. I have the CUTEST shoes for this dress that are pink and have one strap across the toe and three inch heels or so... they lace up with ribbon a- la ballerina toe shoes could just be the dancer in me BUT I LOVE EM the problem with this one is I'm not quite sure I see myself wearing it for an evening event.. I mean the shoes dress it up a bit and the jewelery I'll be wearing is more evening-ish... but I bought it for a wedding.. so I kinda feel it's more of a afternoon/ out doorsey type of a dress... but i'm pretty sure not too many people will be wearing pink.. so.. I dunno...
3rd: is a sheer black with black floral embroidery over black linking with a asymetric hem the longer part below my knee the shorter part above my knee. the neck line is slightly V and it has spaghetti straps too
so what do you all think ? Do I need to do some shopping or is one of these going to do the trick do you think ?? Also I'm going to be a sophomore with only one semester to go until I'm a JR. does anyone know if Berkely is a more freshman oriented rush or if transfers have problems getting bids ? I *don't think* I'll be around for longer than the 4 years... but you never know. Thanks for the good wishes !

The first dress sounds almost exactly like what I wore for Pref -- and I got compliments at all three of the houses I was preffing at. So I'd vote for that one.
