What Should I Wear?

Okay fine, I went shopping today.  I bought a birthday outfit, partially paid for with a generous gift card my coworkers surprised me with yesterday!  So I bought one top and two skirts and will return one of the skirts upon making a decision.So please tell me, what look should I go for?  

Boho hostess chic as seen here in outfit #1?  
Here I am, hosting a party like it's no big deal wearing green wedges for a pop of color.
 Or should I go for a real earthy casual look with the minimalist sandals in outfit #2?
 Or do I go fun and playful with the short sassy skirt here in outfit #3?
I can tell you that one skirt has much more longevity than the other, but is it as fun?  And with the short skirt, my legs are looking pretty white.  Do I really want to put them on display like that?

The party is just a small intimate gathering here at the house with about 20 friends and family.  We're having Vietnamese food catered and hubby is making basil martini cocktails.  I can really go either way and be comfortable, which is why I'm having a hard time making a decision.

So help me out please!  Which look do you vote for?  #1, #2 or #3?
Thanks for your help friends!

    I like #3 if it was for me, but something tells me if I was *you* I'd pick #2.

    bossy red head has a great idea! since we look kinda the same size, we SPLIT the cost of BOTH skirts, and take turns keeping them at our houses. k? otherwise, i like coral baby. i have a feeling you have more short skirts than maxis, don't ya? you look GREAT in the shorties, but you gotta mix it up and the coral is a perfect one for spring/summer. but shoot. they are both so cute on you.

    Definitely #3. My legs are super white, too! Time to get them out and show them off! Spring is coming. :) Happy Birthday! Ooo- and I say a long turquoise necklace for a pop of color against your creamy shirt.

    You have a killer figure and great legs... go for #3. If I'm being totally honest and I'm almost afraid to be.. I think the long skirt is a little more frumpy than boho chic?! But don't get me wrong, you can still rock it :)

    Pale schmale, Victorias Secret & Clarins make great sunless tanners!

    Andrea, you have beautiful, long, lean legs. I say go with #3!!!!

    And happy birthday!

    I think I'm going against the grain, but I love #1. The long skirt is just a little different and LOVE the shoes :).

  29. JulesApril 10, 2011 at 2:16 PM

    I'm going to go against the grain, too, and vote #2, then #1. Given the food and drink you are having, I picture you wearing earthy, casual, hoop earrings, loose finger-combed hair or a messy knot.

    Besides, with a FANTASTIC figure like yours, it would be criminal for you not to take advantage of a completely on-trend look that few people can pull off well.

    I love #1 with the green shoes! But all are super cute!

  32. AmberApril 10, 2011 at 7:24 PM

    i'm probably late ut i vote #3. I LOVE the coral maxi but I think the shorter skirt is PERFECT for a party at home. sassy but not trying to hard to look cool ya know? throw on some bangles and jazzy earrings and you're boho + sassy all at once.
    oh and if you feel "white" - self-tanner or some bronzing lotion will remedy that real quick fast and in a hurry.
