A dress must pass one of these three criteria before I buy it:
Does it make me want to do a happy dance?
Does it make me daydream about the future?
Would I wear it on a first date with Mr. Branflake?
I know it sounds strange and crazy because first dates are a nightmare for some,
but trying to imagine what it would be like to have him ask me out as if it were the first time and me fretting over the perfect dress/outfit/everything, makes our dates more magical and meaningful.
I like the thought of trying to impress him so that he'll say in his head whenever he looks my way:
"I'm the luckiest guy ever."
I'm planning a romantic getaway this summer, where the location will be a surprise to him.
Included is a fancy restaurant so I've been scouring the internet for the perfect (first) date night dress.
I'm really into the pencil look this season- taking a break from all my a-lines, I guess.
Here are my top picks.

I LOVE number one. But you're right...they are all so gorgeous.
How cute that you like to dress up for him for date night! I love them all but I'm leaning towards the red Anthro one :)
Let us know which you choose! xoxo
I think you'll look absolutely stunning in all of these, but no. is definitely my favourite!
I love the first one!
The black and mint dresses are my fav!
The little Anthropology number is calling my name. I love that mint dress too, but I'd need a serious tan before slipping into that.
You and Mr. Branflake are the cutest! Seriously, you two are so inspiring...I love all the sweet things you do for each other. And I'm definitely going to take some inspiration from you...love the first date dress idea! : )
I like the first one the best!

Love the first and fourth dress!
The black DP and the orange anthro are probably my favorites. Honestly, they are all awesome. I can see why you are torn. It would totally depend on my mood.
Of course, you'll never regret buying a black dress. That one is a classic.
Can't wait to see which one you choose!
That coral number is a total showstopper–how gorgeous! And I love that you still think about dating Mr Branflake–I'm pretty sure he thinks about what a lucky guy he is when you're hanging out in your pjs!
I think it's sweet that you ponder about that, making the date special. I love both of the Dorothy Perkins styles and colour. Really pretty. :)
I love the first one! so pretty!

Considering I chopped my locks for my man, I see nothing wrong with this ;)
I'm drawn to the first one. I saw this post earlier and went away, but now that I'm back, I still like the first one, so that must be my choice :) Don't forget to share with us which dress you end up buying!

Oh I love the coral and the mint - two colours which i'd love to add to my own wardrobe.
That is so sweet! I did some damage over at ASOS this weekend, yikes! I like all of them, the first one a little more then the rest :)
Green and pink one!
I'm loving the piece from Dorothy Perkins - the color is beautiful!
And just for the record...I'm one of those who view first dates as a nightmare - they always freak me out to the point of ridiculousness. :P
loving that mint wrap dress!!
LOVE the first one! xoxo jillian:: cornflake dreams
