Christmas dress details-- please help me decide

So minuscule in the scheme of things, but I just can't decide.

Getting this sweater dress for Christmas day for DD

Shows it with red tights (there is red in the flower embroidery, and obviously it's festive); I should do red, right?

Then, which headband do you like? I really like this one, but DD has never worn one that goes all the way around her head, not sure if she'll keep it in, but I do love it

or this one, which doesn't go all around the head but I don't like as much?

Thanks for humoring me! Chat Icon

Re: Christmas dress details-- please help me decide

I would do white tights or off white, depending on the dress, and the second headband

I would do red tights and the first headband. Maybe try out a few headbands that are similar (around the whole head) before Xmas to see if she'll keep it in. Chat Icon

I love the 1st one but I can tell you that DD#1(she is 8) hates the ones that go all around her head. She complains that they slip up in the back. They never last. We have #2 by the way.

I'd do red tights since it's for Christmas.

I like the around the head one better, but they don't stay in Sarah's hair at all. I'd look on etsy for a crocheted clip that matches or see if a vendor on there could make one to match.

I say red tights....and get both headbands!
I'm sure you'll buy her another dress with red in it and she can wear either of the headbands with it!Chat Icon

I agree.

that other style band never stays on DDs head, flies off all day long.

Thanks everyone! Great info about the headband, I can imagine it slipping all the time, not to mention she may protest wearing it.

Re: Christmas dress details-- please help me decide

I like the 1st headband but I don't have a girl and apparently those who do say it does not stay in place.

Off white tights
red shoes

Love the dress!!

I really like the idea of cream tights and red shoes.

i agree about the headband. # 2 would probably stay on better.

I say cream tights and red shoes.

And the second headband-but only because I can't get DD to keep the first kind on.

If you did red tights, what color shoes would you do-I wasn't so sure about the boots they showed it with?

Do you have shoes picked out?

I would go with the first one myself but getting both is a good idea.
