Personal Shopper: Engagement Photos, Part I

Reader Request

I'm getting my engagement pictures taken in June, and need some serious help figuring out what to wear. I HATE being photographed, so I'd like to feel extra cute to make up for it, while still wearing something that won't shock my grandmother when she gets our save the dates. I'm 5' 7" and about 125 pounds, and would need something casual (so, jeans / shorts) and something slightly dressier. To make it a bit harder, I'll be in Phoenix, so its going to be HOT, but I'm not a fan of anything super short. I'm looking to spend about $250 on the two looks. 

Today, I'll post the casual look and I'll give you a dressy look tomorrow. To keep the budget down, I'm not going to include a handbag, since you most likely won't be carrying it in your photos anyway. I'm keeping both looks very simple, as that's what photographs best. Congrats on your engagement!
