<p>It's that time of the year!!!</p>
<p>I'm looking around for a grad dress, anyone have some cute suggesstions? I realize this might not be the best place to ask, lol, but we'll see! It needs to be a good mix between formal and casual, and <$100. </p>
<p>So far I've found this: </p>
<p>depends on how much you're willing to spend
long or short?
any colors you like? whats your skin tone?
eye color?
any specific style you'd prefer?</p>
<p>some cute ones, idk if they suit your taste or whatever:

<p>ummm. white or pale yellow would look great if you have a tan or dark skin. if you have freckles, try something pink/coralish. lighter skin would look nice in pinks/cremes/blues/greens
if you have red hair do green or whites. If you have blue eyes try blues or corals. green eyes try greens or corals. brown eyes try purples.<br>
it'd help to know more, through.</p>
<p>I think the ae one is cute. Our school, and many other east coast schools, makes us wear white, so there's no choice unless you're deciding between bleach white and off white.</p>
<p>lets see..
preferably under $100, $150 tops</p>
<p>short/mediumish, no long</p>
<p>colors - open, but I tend to like classic colors (like whites and blacks), plus they'll look good with my gown.</p>
<p>Style - something chic, classic, you know? something more preppy rather than unique, a nice mix of casual and formal, like i said. But I'm not sure on specifics like halter top, etc. I guess I'm leaning towards strapless because I adore this one too: <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/catalog/product.jhtml?id=prod73893491&catId=cat107412&prodId=73893&prodId=prod73893491%5B/url%5D">http://www.jcrew.com/catalog/product.jhtml?id=prod73893491&catId=cat107412&prodId=73893&prodId=prod73893491</a>
butttt feel free to put up other styles too ;)</p>
<p>skin - naturally tan color, and I'll be working on my tan some in the next few weeks so it'll be even darker</p>
<p>Come on girls, I know some of you have gotten a dress already, post em up and we can oooh and ahhh!</p>
<p>oooh thanks i really like the 4th and 5th ones you posted alamode, esp. that anthropologie one! yea, i'm pretty tanned so white and pale yellow is great. i also think black looks good on me... um yea brown eyes - purple i knew that, hmmm actually the right shade of purple might be perfect, but I haven't found a cute pruple dress yet, strange..</p>
<p>we dont have any specific dress code rules (that I know of)</p>
<p>I don't think you should do black--it's summer! but white, pale yellow, purple, olive green usually looks good too.
i like the delias one
this one was nice too:
