NBR: Need your opinions on this dress (PIP)

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months

I know this is stupid, but it's keeping me awake.  I'm staying with my parents for a wedding we have on Saturday, so my sister and I went shopping for a dress for myself today (because I still can't fit into any of my pre-pregnancy dresses -- ugh!).  Anyway, I found a really cute (or at least what I thought was cute at the time) dress.  I got all the accessories and came home and proudly tried it on for my mom.  She laughed at me and said I look like a little girl.  What do you think?  Is this totally dorky and too childish -- it's so my style (Anthropologie-ish), but now I'm really self-conscience about it.  I realize this type of dress isn't everyones "style" or "taste" but if you saw me wearing this at a wedding, would you be silently whispering to whomever your with about how awful it is?  Feel free to flame --- I need to know.  I only have one more shopping day left to get something else if it's that bad.  TIA

    I'll be honest.  I would snicker.  It reminds me (from the pics) of either a dirty old doll or a waitress in some southern backwoods town.  I am sorry if that was harsh..but if it were me, I would want to know.

    Sorry, but I agree with this.  What about something like this

    It's lind of a similar style but not so kiddish looking.  It'd be cute with leggings too!

    That is cute.  Too bad my parents live in a tiny town that doesn't have an Old Navy.  Oh well...hopefully I'll find something.

    That's what I was thinking. I think it's those 2 things in white that are making it look so kid-like. If it were a different color dress with black leggings and flats I think it would look better
