black dress too boring for shower?

MrsEmm · May 2010

I have a plain black dress that is jersey (super comfy) but still looks dressy/put together. is it too boring to wear all black?

I got talked out of wearing my first choice black cotton dress and into wearing a loud floral print dress that was deemed more festive. It might have been more festive, but the pictures killed me, it looked like I was wearing a mumu.

I say wear simple black if you want to, and if you want to make it a little more festive add some fun accessories.

I second the wearing the black dress...just jazz it up with some fun accessories like the pp said.

Not boring. You can always add colorful shoes or a cute necklace.

Right now you should be thinking comfort ... you'll be sitting down opening gifts for awhile

Not boring, just rock it out with great heels. I say go for what you like and is comfy, and it's true solid colors are usually more flattering than big all over prints.

I did the same thing as PP, I was going to an event about 28 weeks along, tried on tons of fun floral print dresses, that I thought were cute. But in the end I wore solid color dress, I didn't feel as great with the crazy all over print dresses.

I wore this to my shower and wore cute yellow flip flops.

I will disagree and say black is not very festive for a baby shower. BUT, you should wear whatever you want.

I wore a black dress, and i put a pink belt on with a pink necklace and it was perfect.

I wore a black dress and had fun with the accessories.

I like things to be very bright so I went back and forth on wearing a black dress... I'm glad I did for comfort - and selfishly, pictures. I did however, wear hot pink pumps and bright colored jewelry.
