I can't decide if I like the New Caledonia dress or the Da Vinci dress the best (although ALL of those choices are gorgeous). I would wear the New Caledonia dress to my friend's wedding next month and I would wear the Da Vinci dress out for an afternoon driving up the coast or for a classy yet laid back dinner party in the backyard with friends.
