I prefer the burgundy one.

I like the burgundy one best too. I think it looks lovely and would suit your colouring.

The burgundy dress is nice but will it be warm enough?

Thank you. That's a good point. It will be colder next month.

The burgundy is nicer and with tights and a thermal vest (or a slip dress) underneath I think the dress will be warm enough.

I like the anya one the best.

Do people really not think about season / weather / likely temperature when choosing clothes for a specific event?

I often wonder this as well. Churches are not the warmest places to be. I also feel the cold easily and always wear layers.
