Dresses came in! Help me decide which one please :)
Thanks again for everyone who helped me decide which dresses to order the other day!
I needed a new dress for a bridal shower that I'm going to this Saturday, noon at a nice Italian restaurant.
The dresses (from Piperlime) arrived today and both fit pretty well. I'm leaning towards the beige/pink one but am not sure... I kind of feel like the blue/yellow one is a bit too business-like. I'm a SAHM so I think I'd be more likely to wear the other one again, for date-night or whatever...
What do you think?

I like them both, but I can see the pink one being more versatile for you.
Thanks!
Do you think the pink one is flattering? I feel pretty sassy in it
But I want it to look good, you know. That was the top comment I got about that dress in my OP about which to buy, that it may not be the most flattering style...

I think it's totally cute on you, seriously. And that color is so hot right now, I love it. I mean, it's not a curve-hugging dress, but I think it looks great. The blue is just 'ok' to me, not really worth keeping IMO.

Haha, I already feel guilty about buying dresses when I gave up shopping for Lent! I promised myself that I WOULD return one of them
Ha, it is an orangy pinkish color...I think it was described as coral though?

Ooohhh...I like them both but I agree that maybe the first one would fit your lifestyle better. What brand is the second one? I might have to go check it out.
I like the first one better too. I think I was one of the original commenters that it may not be flattering, IRL, but it is. I'd definitely keep that one.
The 2nd dress is great for work - I'm surprised it got such bad reviews online. It fits you really well!
Thanks! I know, I was surprised the 2nd one fit too... I was hoping it would despite the reviews
I can see how if my hips were any wider, it would be tight..but otherwise, it seems pretty accurately sized and proportioned...
Thanks!
Here's the link to my OP with the links to the dresses in there.

Thanks! Do you think they both run tts?
I actually thought they both ran a little small. The pink one could be TTS, but the blue one definitely runs small. I usually wear a S/26 but got both in M.
Then def keep the pink one
