If you're so inclined to help me out...

Hi Kiddo.....

You look beatiful in both of them....I like Rich's answer. Keep them both!

Hi Hon-  Just thought I would add my vote.  I say...wait until closer to the event.  They do look like you could go down a size...so by then you may be drowning in both!  But personally, right now I like the print one better. ;)

May be too late to matter - but here is my vote.....blue dot!  Love it!  you look maaaaavelous!

Well I gotta tell you, THIS has been interesting!  I truly do appreciate all your votes and comments - Did any of you tally the votes?  It's a DEAD HEAT!!!  14 votes each!!

My preference is the mint dress.  You can't see all the detail in the photo, but it's linen and has little flowery-things embroidered all over it, and trim along the bottom.   It does look great with my current tan, but it's highly doubtful I'll be as tan in late September!

So, given that I'm one of those people who almost ALWAYS spills SOMETHING on herself, I'm thinking I'll go with the blue print dress.  Gives a bit more camouflage in case I have a bumble while wearing it!   The shrug is for just in case it's chilly in Alabama - 'cuz it is for The Wedding (Lucy & Randall!)

As for the fit?  They're both 16's!!!   I about sharted!! (that was for you, Dana!)  I'm still mostly in 18's for jeans and shorts, but the 18's were ridiculously huge on me!  IF I shrink more between now and mid-September, I have a dear friend who is a whizz with a sewing machine - I know she would take either dress in for me if needed.  (She sewed her DIL's wedding dress, THAT'S how good she is!)

THANK YOU ALL for chiming in!  I'm actually quite thrilled and more than a little flattered that the vote was so close! 

Definitely the print!!!
I think it's about 1/2 and 1/2, we are no help!!
