Hubby and I are disagreeing on which dress I should wear for our shower.  And now that I was able to load the pictures after 20 minutes of trying, the choice has become yours!!

(pictures in first comment)

A bit about the shower - it's a co-ed shindig on August 13 in my mom's party room of her building.  Mainly family from both sides with a few friends, very relaxed but my mom is doing a blue and white theme multicolours of blue (though she told me I didn't have to dress in blue to match).

  • I like the blue better (I'm a big fan of navy and white), but I do have a question.  How hot is it going to be?  Will the room be air conditioned?  The shorter, strapless dress seems like it would be more comfortable if it's going to be hot in the room.
  • There is suppose to be AC

  • Although both dresses look beautiful on you. I like the blue one more (but I am a HUGE nut for maxi length dresses XD) ; however, as ignoscemihi pointed out the strapless would be more comfortable with heat.

  • Which do you feel more comfortable in? I would be worried about popping out of the strapless one, but I have trouble keeping my boobs in anything anymore.

  • I'm in the minority, I like the strapless one better! :)
  • I should probably add that I have to make a decision by tomorrow since I put both on hold lol

  • Hubby is team blue maxi dress, I'm team strapless but I'd have to figure out a bra because my boobs are different sizes so I HAVE to wear one

  • Both are cute, but I love the blue maxi! I love maxi dresses in general though, so I'm probably biased.

  • Personally I tend to feel more comfortable in something with straps/sleeves, so I'm not worrying about bra showing or things shifting or popping out, so I voted blue!
  • I like the strapless one, but if I were you I'd wear the one that's your choice.  DH will get over it :wink:

  • I'm team blue dress... DH is too but obviously I only voted once :)
  • +1 for the blue dress. I'm not a big fan of strapless bras. But you should wear whichever you like best! 
  • I love the blue one!

  • I love the blue! But I'm a sucker for that type of neckline.

  • Strapless bras are the worst, and probably even more horrible during pregnancy. I voted for the blue, which looks great on you! 
  • I like the length and print of the strapless better, but not that it's stapless. Being big chested, I HATE anything strapless especially if it's not structured and able to stay up easily on it's own! So because of that I would choose the blue dress. Could you do the strapless with a little cardigan or some type of cover up? So you can wear a comfortable bra?

  • The strapless dress is totally cute, but I think the blue one looks much better on you!

    @MorganL925 is right for the win.  It's at Motherhood, but I'm in Canada so I don't know if we have different stock.

  • I'm voting blue. You're gonna be sitting down and opening gifts and I think the blue dress will be more flattering picture wise for that and also comfort wise. You don't have to worry about a boob popping out or your undies showing!

    also I find strapless bra shopping to be extremely stressful as a large chested lady!

    Where did you find the blue maxi? It's so cute!
  • I just ordered the blue one for myself
