I want to place the order today but am so torn between these 2 colors....Can you please vote and let me know your feelings on it. The wedding is from 11-5. I also but a pic of Land's End and my Dress for a better feel of the whole package. The wedding colors, flowers, etc are ivorys and whites....
Thanks!

by the way.. who makes the dress?

Actually J Crew makes it. I fell in love with it a while back but wasn't sure simply because I had never seen it in person. I did love the fact that it was 100% silk and under $200. So when I went Bridesmaid shopping with my girls (2 different places) everyone was gravitating to very similar dresses (essentially strapless, straight down, with a bow). I had completely forgotten about the J Crew dress and I was watching the Today Show this morning and their Bridesmaid dresses were wearing J Crew and it just clicked 'oh I should take a peak at those dresses'. Well needless to say I went on this morning and they were on HUMONGOID sale (Down from $179 to $119) I just couldn't resist that price esp for what you get for that.

I LOVE the blue! I am going to have midnight blue for my BM dresses. I think its elegant.

That blue against the ivory of your dress and ivory and white flowers would be magnifico. And I believe you are getting married outdoors by water so it would pick up so many color cues. Strong vote for navy from me.

I couldn't have said it better. My vote is for Blue. It is also one of my favorite colors so I am a bit biased.
