which shower dress?

i already bought this one:

but then i found this one - which is a bit more my style:

i have an event for DH next week that i can wear the first one to. i also have a few showers and some events over the summer after Chat Icon is here that i would need clothes for so i will probably get use out of them a few times. however they are both a little more money than i usually spend on a dress. the first one i had a nice discount, the second one i will prob have to pay full price if i buy it.

thoughts?
also, accessory recommendations?

my shower is may 15th and its brunch time and its indoors at a restaurant. if it matters in general im a jeans girl and i only really wear sun dresses over the summer and pretty much never wear skirts..

ETA - dress #2 can also be worn like this

Re: which shower dress?

I really really like the first one especialy woth nice big jewelery and honestly if I were u I wouldn't spend the extra money. DH's event is with a totally diff crowd so u can pull of wearing it twice and after your LO is here trust me u will want to wear a none maternity dress! Dresses now are so flowy anyway that even if u still won't lose all ur pre pregnancy weight u can wear a regular dress and not stress about it and if u know if an item doesn't have the word maternity in front of it it's at least twice as cheap! But this is all just my opinion!

Re: which shower dress?

i love #1!!!

#2 is super cute too, but for me i would be more comfy wearing a regular bra, than a strapless from the size of my tata's these days!!

i vote #1!!

Re: which shower dress?

i think #2 is cuter than #1 but if i was going for comfort...i would choose 1. like another poster said, it has straps and you can wear a bra. it looks more flowy and comfy. Plus you already bought it so save the $

Re: which shower dress?

I like #2 then you can wear a little top if you're cold or something.
Plus, looks more flowly and less likely to show anything bad
don't forget the prego spanx. Smooths everything out. Chat Icon

I'm not loving #2 that much plus its a summery dress and I feel like its to casual for other events. I love #1. care to share where its from?

Re: which shower dress?

thanks for the feedback. i totally agree about the bra thing - the girls HAVE gotten pretty large and i hated strapless dresses even before i was pregnant. but i just think its super cute...
i think im going to end up ordering it and trying it on. then if its not going to work im going to send it back..

ohh for everyone who asked - the first one is Ann Taylor Maternity and the second is Seraphine Maternity. the Ann Taylor is a pretty good price since they always have like 40% off sales. i think i saved $25 when i ordered it.

Re: which shower dress?

number 2 is my fav.
i was looking at that dress a few weeks ago online... loved it then.. but it's too $$ for me. If I could stop shopping for Chat Icon then i'd probably be able to swing it... but I can't stop myself!!! haha!!
