what to wear to a high school reunion (summer edition).

This past winter, I attended {cv}'s 10th high school reunion in Maine. In ten short days, I will be co-hosting my own 10th reunion in southern Indiana. Besides the craziness of planning, I am also frantically trying to choose my outfit for the festivities. If you know me, you know my first inclination was to check Rent The Runway. These 9 stunners are in tight contention for top pick. I'm hoping you can help me narrow it down!
Which dress would you choose for an outdoor, slightly more relaxed soirée?

{all dresses are available on Rent The Runway in the $50-$75 rental range}

 When trying to narrow down my choices, I knew one thing: I wanted color! I threw in a few dresses in my high school's signature purple, along with some other summer brights. My aim with these choices was to be comfortable, yet stylish--and still approachable.

Since I don't live near home, this will be the first time I've seen most of my classmates since the day
we graduated in 2003. Any input would certainly be appreciated! You ladies never let me down ;)
I'll see you on Friday for some fabulous #FridaysFancies! xoxo {av}

P.S. The special bonus? Rent The Runway is currently offering a midsummer special: $25 off any rental of $75 or more through 7/14/2013. This means you could rent a dress + some sparkly earrings for that summer wedding you're fussing over :) Simply use the code: MIDSUMMER13 at checkout!
NOTE: this post is not sponsored by Rent The Runway. I am simply an avid renter + believer in their website!

  8. Get the green dress on the 2nd row! I am thinking about renting that for a wedding on the Cape in a few weeks. You could dress it up with accessories & shoes!

  14. I LOVE that pink Kate Spade in the first row...with some cognac wedges it'd be perfect!

    I'm actually renting the purple Shoshanna for a wedding later this month, and the turquoise lace one on the bottom was in strong competition for the wedding as well! #greatminds, right?

  16. I love the last dress in the top row, but is it too dressy? I'm not sure what kind of event this will be. You really can't go wrong with any of them, but the pink and white one is adorable and seems very you.
