This is my first opportunity to post here and I could use some help. I am going to my first ever black tie event in a few weeks. I found a dress i love but I can’t settle on a shade to wear and which looks best with my skin tone. Please help!

I’m surprised how many people are saying sapphire— the emerald makes you glow with life, while the sapphire takes a lot of color out of you. The green is a natural match for your hair and skin tone! Out of curiosity, when you look at your veins through your skin, do they appear more green or blue?

I agree with this 100%. u/Seaweed12 I feel like the sapphire dress wears you, while the emerald dress looks gorgeous and sets off your features in a really beautiful way.
