Right Around the Corner

Wow, these weeks are flying by! It got super cold this weekend which makes me realize that Christmas is just around the corner. Guess what else is right around the corner? Our ENGAGEMENT PICTURES!! We take them 2 weeks from tomorrow and I'm so excited! I still have to narrow down our outfits but I'm getting very close.

We're going to have 2 outfits, one dressy, one casual. For the dressy outfit, I've narrowed it down to 2 dresses, and I'm going to have Jeff wear his Armani suit he bought in Italy this summer.

Dress choice #1:
Diane von Furstenburg

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this color. The dress looks way better on than it does in this picture. I wear it more blousy and it looks so cute. And it would go really well with my Valentino shoes that I got in Italy, which would be kind of cool if Jeff and I were both wearing Italy purchases in the dressy picture, right? =)

This picture shows the suit and the shoes I'm thinking of:


Dress choice #2:
V>Diane von Furstenburg


I love this dress too! The only reason I'm kind of leaning towards the blue one instead is because my photographer said to stay away from busy prints because they kind of take away from faces especially in black and white pictures.
So what do you guys think? Help!
For the casual outfit, I'm thinking jeans and sweaters for both of us. I found this cowl neck sweater at Nordstrom when I was in Dallas last weekend and it looks really good. I got it in a warm orange-ish color though and it looks really good with jeans.


So there you have it...my narrowed down list of engagement picture clothing choices! Now, to figure out all the clothing choices for the wedding....oy!

Both dresses are gorgeous! I think the blue one would photograph better. Like your photographer said, the other one might be too busy.
