Shower dress pics

PreggoInTheCity · October 2015

Hi ladies, since some of us have showers coming up soon, it might be nice to post pictures here of what you will be wearing! I still haven't figured out what I want to wear, so for people like me it can serve as inspiration as well! Anyone want to share a pic of your dress or outfit?

I love this! Mine is at the end of November and I have no idea what to wear. I have one somewhat snazzier maternity dress that has been my preggo wedding attire this season so I have that as a backup with some coloured or textured tights and boots. But, by then I'll have worn it so many times I feel like I'll want something different.

I ended up getting a Pink Blush dress and love it! Right now you can't really tell I'm pregnant when I have it on but I'm thinking in 6 more weeks I'll feel differently.

I am having my first shower next Saturday and it is with women only so I haves this dress from pink Blush I am going to wear. My nex shower is a coed shower and it isn't until nov 8 and I really don't know what I am going to wear just yet...my baby bump is all of a sudden exploding out!

I love this thread idea! I'm thinking a shorter, long sleeve scoop neck dress with tights but haven't found what I'm looking for yet. Was hoping for something cranberry as it will be near turkey day!

Mine is not a maternity dress, but I've read a lot of reviews that it works as one. It's from Poppy and Dot. If you follow them on Instagram, they put new clothes up everyday. The dress looks black in the picture, but it's navy blue.

Just got this online from old navy, very comfortable and fits great!

I'm short so most dresses are out of the picture for me. I live in big shirts and leggings 90% of the time now and wanted to buy an outfit I could wear even after pregnancy. And the colors and cheetah print matches my shower theme wonderfully since I'm doing a lion king theme.

PreggoInTheCity · October 2015

These are great! I'm seeing a lot of wrap dresses, which I don't have, so maybe I'll look into something like that. Thanks ladies, you are all gonna look great at your showers!!

For those of you ladies who've ordered from Pink Blush. How do their sizes run? I was a 6-8 pre-pregnancy size and have been buying Medium in everything maternity so far and it's all fit great. Was just wondering if they run pretty true to size or if I should go up. I'm looking into one of their long maxi-dresses.

livins · October 2015

@teachmegs817 I was wearing an eight PP but lost some weight until recently. I ordered a large and I think it's too big so it sounds like you're smaller than me. I would definitely get a medium. Plus it's a great stretchy fabric. The only thing I would worry about is the chest. It's got a V so you might want something under rather to cover some cleavage if you're uncomfortable.

teachmegs817 · October 2015

@livins Thank you, so much! I did end up ordering one in a medium about 10 minutes ago. It's a maxi dress, that's solid up top and floral at the bottom. Not the criss cross type that some PP have purchased, although it was a hard decision between the one I got, and a few in that style.

This is what I'll be wearing for my shower on November 7th, FTM can't wait!!

carlyhammond · October 2015

I was planning on wearing yoga pants and a nice top to my shower, since that's the most comfortable thing I own... My sister says that isn't appropriate-sighs- back to the drawing board.

I'd say if that's what you're comfortable in it's all good. My sister asked me if I was going to wear a dress and I said "Have you ever seen me in a dress besides weddings?" and she laughed. I don't do dresses. It was a miracle my BF got me into maxi skirts this summer. I might just reuse one of those because I didn't mind them too much. Good luck all finding that perfect outfit

ChrissyD1203 · October 2015

I just ordered this one

Now only if I could find a way to look like the model while wearing it!!!

Pink Blush has 25% off everything today!

teachmegs817 · October 2015

@chrissyd1203 That's the one I ordered yesterday. I am just hoping it doesn't scoop down really low. I don't think it'll look that good with a camisole, but we will see.

ChrissyD1203 · October 2015

@teachmegs817 I'm hoping the same thing! I've never bought anything from Pink Blush before so I really have no idea what to expect in terms of quality or fit.

mom2be2016 · October 2015

I bought this one yesterday...

Mommyjess2014 · October 2015

I wore this to my sprinkle! I'm not a dress person!

Mommyjess2014 · October 2015

juneandboo · October 2015

Bought this Friday from Motherhood Maternity. Shower is Nov 7!

kmo8986 · October 2015

I think this is what I am going to wear to my sprinkle. It is much longer on me because I am a midget, so with black leggings and my tan riding boots https://www.google.com/search?q=denim+maternity+tunic+target&rlz=1CDGOYI_enUS599US599&espv=1&hl=en-US&prmd=simvn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAmoVChMIkqy9ztW7yAIVxtgeCh2nYAws#imgrc=Uxk_GNyPaNLZXM:

narissa2013 · October 2015

My shower is in Dec. So im looking for a longish sweater to wear over leggings with boots.

Knottie82267345 · October 2015

Just bought this one on destination maternity for 17 dollars. On clearance and an extra 30% off!! Excited for Nov 7th!!!

Blueyedsky · October 2015

Will be wearing this one with black tights since it'll be a little chilly

I tried it on at old Navy and love it! And it's on sale.

mamakate1616 · October 2015

Speaking of tights... Anyone find any maternity sized ones? The best I have found so far is high waisted regular rights and those are so profoundly uncomfortable I have given up wearing them/dresses until after I deliver.

littleloves3 · October 2015

I am wearing this with a long sleeved black top. My question for everyone going the maxi dress route is: what shoes are you wearing? My shower is in two Sundays and at my mom's house so I think I may just go barefoot since I cannot come up with a pair of shoes that would look right with this.

I would think that flats or flip flops would look great

Though it's not really the season to buy a pair if you need. I'm low key so I would stay just a pair of plain black flip flops is what I would wear. Absolutely love the pattern though

teachmegs817 · October 2015

@happyandhopeful3 I am either going with a pair of flats, or I may look for some low heel ankle boots in a grey or black color. I have a pair of closed toe, suede wedges that might look nice with it, I just have to see how long the dress is. I may go with a heel, because I can't stand when stuff drags on the floor.

Old navy. If your local store doesn't carry maternity, try online. I just bough a pair I love there though. Not super cheap, but they look great.

babylapaugh · October 2015

H&M has maternity tights

mamakate1616 · October 2015

Thanks @Blueyedsky I will check ON.

Anyone concerned about wearing black/dark colors? That's my go to and what I would feel comfortable in but a friend was shocked I wasn't planning to wear a pink dress.
