Opinions

So I am wearing this dress to my shower.

Sleeveless Empire Waist Maternity Dress

I haven't been doing much weight training (by that I mean none) so my arms are alittle on the beefier side right now. I want to wear a cardigan with it. I think I am going to wear red shoes if I can fit my fat feet in the ones I want to wear. What color cardigan would you wear?

Sorry the picture is huge, the littler picture wouldn't show up for some reason.

Re: Opinions

  • I will also being wearing my head when I wear the dress, just wanted to clarify.
  • Maybe white with the red shoes

    or

    Red with black shoes

    Take that with a grain of salt though, I'm not a fashionista by any stretch of the imagination

    cute dress btw, I really like it!

  • I have tons of black shoes so red with black shoes could work!

    Thank you! I was trying to find one that made me look less whale-like.

  • Melanie may be a self-proclaimed non-fashionista, but I like her suggestions.

    And you do not look whale-like.  I agree that the headless look may not be the best option, though... people tend to have a negative reaction to it.

  • I am SO glad you are going to wear your head.  I was really concerned about that because the last shower I went to...well, let's just say kids ran away screaming... ;)

    I like Mel's suggestions.  :)

  • I agree with Mel on the combinations and I'd probably go with a red cardigan and black shoes.

  • I agree w/ Mel but I just wanted to say that I LOVE the dress!
  • Thank you girls, I think your right!

    Yea Mandy that is a good point, I wasn't going to wear my head because then I wouldn't have to do my hair and makeup but I definately don't want to offend anyone, plus then how would I eat cake?

    Thank you! I tried on a few and thought this was the most flattering, plus it's long enough that I don't have to worry about flashing people when I am sitting opening gifts, that was definatley a concern.

    If you did flash someone then that sure would make for some good (er something) memories!
