A Reader Poll: Cute vs Pretty



Reader Question:

When you are describing something you really like, either in a store or that someone is wearing, etc., do you say it is "Cute" or "Pretty"?

I'd go with Cute over Pretty most times. I'm too tall to carry off "pretty" things, but will venture into "cute" to augment my intended bold, striking stance.

I would never use cute. Cute is overused for anything but kittens and puppies. I would use "sharp" and occasionally "pretty."

Neither if it were for me. I don't do cute or pretty. Cool or gorgeous or stunning.
Pretty or cute in equal proportions for something for my granddaughters, who are five and two.

It depends on what I'm describing! I rarely use the word Pretty, though. I'll use Cute if the situation merits. :P
