Help me pick a dress please...UPDATED...NOT GOOD

Going to a wedding in 3 weeks
Wanted to wear a dress I have in the closet but doubtful it will fit me now.

I looked on Nordstrom's website. Only place I see nice dresses. L&T have the same ones, usually. May got there instead.

Which do you like? The wedding is in Ireland - I think pants outfit is OK there.

**Update** The outfit we all loved IS PETITE only. Nordstrom made a mistake on their website. Thankfully they called me first.

I'm 5'5'...maybe 5'6' normally (ie: w/o heels). I don't think that a petite would make it for me.

**UPdate again** I called NOrdstrom and the man said that petite fits up to 5'5'. So...I'm going to try it anyway. I can return to a Nordstrom store if it doesn't fit. Maybe I can have the hem let out a bit if it is too short. I *really* like the outfit.

So here's one more dress I found. I really didn't want to go to a store (I ordered the outfit online) but I think I'm going to have to now because I don't see anything online I like.

If anyone can find (if you have time of course) another poncho/pants set for a dressy occassion in a size 20W I'd appreciate if you can post or let me know.

Re: Help me pick a dress please

Yay! That's what I liked too!
I have a dress like #2 and 3 but it's (again!) too small. I hate buying similar dresses in different sizes. Seems a waste.

Thanks girls!!!

Thanks! I thought the same thing since I saw pics of a wedding a few weeks ago and a few were wearing similar.

The wedding ceremony is in Knock, Tipperary (not *the* Knock..of course) and the reception is in Kinnity Castle, in Offaly.
And, the cape is burnout velvet, and I have velvet shoes (close toe). I hope I can find it in the White PLains Nordstrom or I will order online and pray it fits!
