I love the red one on you and the black one with the zipper. They all look great on you though so any would be perfect.

And I'm  the same way about shopping. I was so used to trying to blend in that I never wore anything fashionable. I still sometimes buy something a bit outside my comfort zone but find when I wear it I always get complements.

Sounds like Festive Red and Black Lace are winning!

Go Festive Red!

Go Black Lace!

RED!!! I'm sure you used to always wear black! Everything I have is black. Go for color now that you can. And you look fabulous in it! Second runner up is the black lace. Or heck, get both!

I went back and read the daily menu comments about the dress issue. They are right, just get one. Go for the red one only and accessorize differently for the parties. It would be so much easier with the red one.  

1, 3 and 5 for a Christmas party.  None of them are too dressy, but they look really nice on you.

I vote black lace one or the one right above it. Personally, I detest shoulder cut-out dresses/tops. I also vote no to knee high boots- a heel would be better IMO. I wouldn't think twice about something above the knee.

I've always shied away from those cut-out dresses too... yesterday I made it a point to try on things waaayyy out of my comfort zone. I will be more open to above the knee!

I've decided to continue shopping... in the meantime I hid those dresses in a different size so maybe I can go back and get one if I need to! 

Black Lace, definitely - the classiest one of the bunch!

They all look beautiful but I think the black lace is smokin'!
