PIP your baby shower outfit

Themetastic · May 2011

I am having such a hard time finding and deciding on something to wear for my shower in 2 weeks. I am worried about boobage, keeping my legs crossed and being too hot. Let's not even go there with shoes either.

So show me watcha got. I need new places to look!

This is the dress that I got this weekend at Macys. It is from Motherhood. It is so flowy and airy that I don't think I will get too hot. And I wanted something long so that I wouldn't have to worry about crossing my legs It covers the boobs pretty well (better than on the mannequin). I am a DD size and feel pretty good in it.

** It also comes in purple **

I have this dress from Target: https://tinyurl.com/4ywfknf

And this dress from Target: https://tinyurl.com/42zn8bc (no longer available online, but still have it at my store on clearance.)

The clearance price was less on both dresses in my local store. $17, I think.

I love them both. They are super comfortable while still being a little dressy. I think I'm going to wear one to each shower.

I am wearing this one for my shower at the end of this month. I am going to pair it with a cropped thre-quarter sleve cardigan in purple...

I have another shower this weekend, and am wearing a dress from Motherhood, but it was a hand-me-down from a friends, so it is from a few years ago (no picture). It is a white w/light green ploka dots wrap styled dress.

For my shower in a couple of weeks, I'm wearing this:

I'm considering this for my later, more formal shower but not sure if I want to shell out that much $$:

and a pair of white capris. I don't know what color shoes to wear... probably brown sandals.

I'm having a hard time too. I'd like to wear a dress but everything I have tried on so far is either too long (I'm short lol) or too big in the chest area (I've really only gained in my tummy). I may just have to see if one of my non maternity dresses fit all right, or just buy a new non maternity dress. So aggravating though!

Thanks for posting this... I am having a terrible time because I think the maxi dresses make me look even more whale-like than before, and I hate dresses that fall above my knees! I have one dress that I got for a wedding but it's primarily black (LIz Lange at Target but not on site to show) but I want something more fun and summery. Thanks for posting, looking forward to see if anyone else comments.

I found a non-maternity dress yesterday at Burlington that is tee length (passed the knees) and I think that is flattering but I am not 100% in love with it so I am continuing to look. It didn't help that I just saw a friends showers pics where she had on a dress in the same length and it wasn't that flattering.

Here's the dress I have. I love it- comfy, I feel it looks good on me, but just doesn't feel summery and showery. (These pics don't show a very good angle to see the length, but I like it.)

I'm wearing this to one with open toed black heels:

It's Olian "Fawn" dress from Nordstrom

And I'm wearing this Old Navy dress to my other one:

I think that is really cute and could totally work for your shower.. but I understand wanting to keep looking!

I'm going with jean capri's and one of my tops. Both of my showers are really informal. Not to mention the fact that one of them is a co-ed cookout and I live in central Florida so its really hot!

This was my dress from my shower last weekend:

I had a hard time because I am obviously pretty large with twins. I loved this dress because it contained the boobs and also hit just below my knees. I didn't have to worry at all about flashing the crowd when I was opening gifts. I wasn't sure about the color in the beginning, but I got a lot of compliments at the shower. It is a jersey knit, very flowy, and extremely comfortable. In fact, when I got home that night, I sat around in it until I was ready for bed because it was so cool and comfortable!

Love!
