So, I want to buy a nice, non-Target dress for my anniversary. I don't own anything nice, and I really want it to be worth it.

Here's what I look like (more or less. That was 180 and I'm 176 now):

Here are the two dresses I'm looking at:

So, I have a similar figure to the model in the photos, except I'm shorter and have a little bit more belly. Which one looks better?

    The blue dress is gorgeous - just make sure you wear a better bra than she has on.
    And enjoy your special night out :)

    yeah think the blue one is more elegant. you know what if you can find a nice wrap dress they are also very flattering. I don't like the slit in the second one, it really emphasises models thighs and is a little bit tarty.

    I like them both, originally i preferred the first one, but the second one is also growing on me (especially if it was in black).

    Whatever you choose, Im sure you will look fantastic in!!!

    I like them both, but if you're anything like me be wary of the ruching across the front in the first one. It has the same effect as horizontal stripes and can make my belly seem bigger than it is.
    But they are both really nice :-)

    The Blue and I don't see what's wrong with the chest but then I'm not dress-up savvy either.

    The blue, it'll emphasise your fantastic bust and in MO I think the draping will actually disguise any tummy which means you can treat yourself and still look great :)
    By the way you have an wonderful figure, I'd kill for those curves!

    Both dresses are lovely but I think you would really rock the blue dress. The all-over ruching is actually wonderful for disguising a bit of a tummy while emphasizing your glamorous curves!

    Love them both but if you want to hide a bit of a belly, the first will do that for sure. They're both gorgeous. :)

    They are both lovely but personally I would prefer the second one. The ruching on the first one makes the models hips etc. look wider.

    I really like both dresses, but I think I like the blue a little more. I think it will smooth out an problem spots.

    You'll have to post pics of you in one when you decide! Have a great night out!!!

    i like both, they both have good things about them. But i think the teal would be more flattering to your skin tone and hair colour and maybe emphase those amazing curves a little more! have a lovely night, you'll look good in which ever one you buy!

    Hoo boy. They are both lovely! I like the red because it's a good color for everybody. The blue-ish one is stunning, though. Here's what I do: SPANX. You can get them at Target, I think--or other brands elsewhere. It isn't uncomfortable to wear it under a dress, and it smooths out everything. I hope you have a great time.

    I love the blue one and think it would look good on you. Also agree with the folk who said the scrunching in the front hides the belly. Have a great night out!
