is this too dressy? should i wear jeans?

Answer 1

The outfit is darling, and VERY appropriate... it says you cared enough to shop and look well... but not that you're idiotic enough to wear a sequined prom-dress when it's not appropriate!  *LOL*

The only thing I'd caution you about is the shoes.  Unless you're used to wearing heels all the time, those might have you miserable by the end of the day.  You'll be better off in something that's really comfortable.   I wore gold/tan linen slacks with a crisp white button-down blouse and a burgundy leather jacket.  I had some flats that were a tapestry fabric in burgundy and gold.  It went together well... my son's company color was red, so the red showed Company support... and the shoes didn't kill my feet at all!

Answer 2

It's a special occasion, go all out for it.  You'll sizzle in it.

Answer 3

Looks good, not overly dressy, not too casual - I like it!

  

Answer 4

Just wear what you're comfortable in sugar. But I hate those shoes sorry.

Answer 5

It is nice that you are concerned, but what you have picked is fine.

Answer 6

Yes, that would look very nice. NO JEANS, please.

Give your brother a big hug for this old vet and thank him for serving our country, from me.

Answer 7

Wear what you like. Showing your support is what really matters. Semper Fidelis!

Answer 8

I think that will look great! Definitely no jeans  - that would not be respectful, IMO.

Answer 9

I think you should go for #2 dress pans! U would look nice and you would show respect dont wear jeans remember is a graduation a very important one so male ur brother proud he is probably gonna want to introduce you to other people so dress appropiately. And have fun!

Answer 10

I think its cute! wear what you want when i went to my husbands graduation i dressed up. its an important day for them so it should be semi-formal ya know?....but i seen people there being way over dressed and way under dressed like sweat pants and shirt. he will be introducing you to people there and you dont want to make a bad impression so i say go for it, that out fits not over dressed nor under dressed  

Answer 11

the day isn't about you...who cares

Answer 12

Thats perfect..You dont have to be all dressed up..

You will see many who go "as is"..Just go in whatever you feel comfortable in..
