#1: Homemade Color Blocking
The seagreen dress is Old Navy and the aqua-ish shirt is aerie from ages ago. It's just an oversized tunic that I tied up under the bust, '90s style. The shoes are from Zara, purchased for a wedding I was in last year. (I would never be so bold as to buy these sky-highs for myself, but they are good to have on hand for fancywear. Please believe every word I tell you when I say I will change but immediately into flip flops for the reception. Tackiness be damned.)
#2: Paint it Black
This is one of my very favorite Anthropologie pieces that I own (total count = 4, so this dress is sooooo special right?) It's pretty old, but I like it as maternity (even though it's not, technically) because it cinches under the bust and just flows all free-style from there. Perfect for big huge bellies. I pulled out one of my sashes from I have no clue where, to give it something extra.
A quick word: there are NO picturesque photo spots in our apartment. Zero. And I wasn't about to hoof it outside for the 24 self-timer photos it took to get these two (not exaggerating), not even for you guys. I have neighbors you know. So you guys get to see a corner of our super cute comforter and a panel of our super cute wall.
Another word: cross my heart, I will be doing my hair AND makeup for the wedding! I promise! What you see here is 7:30 in the morning bedhead turned sidebun, and moisturizer swiped under the eyes to remove yesterday's eyeliner.
Tell me your thoughts. Spring Seagreen? Basic Black? Back to the drawing board?
Number two!
ReplyDeleteOutfit two! Have fun at the wedding!
ReplyDelete#2 - You really do look cute pregnant. :)
ReplyDeleteha. I though I liked the green. oops. I "shared" this on the blog's facebook page even though I know you are staunchly anti-facebook .......... we'll see vat they say.
ReplyDeleteI really like them both actually. The colors in #1 are so pretty but I like #2 as well. not helpful. sorry.
ReplyDeleteSorry, FB stalker via Grace :) I like number 2- reminds me of my fav dress I got from Pea in a Pod.
ReplyDeleteMy first reaction was black, but I like the green more and more as I go back and forth. I think that means you're going to look adorable-pregnant either way! Have so much fun at the wedding!
ReplyDelete#2 by a smidge and I think the shoes work well with both
ReplyDeleteI vote black! Very classy and fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Grace...I like number one...the green. Do you have any colorful necklaces to wear with it? That would add another punch of color. I am totally with you on the flip flops. Love them.
ReplyDeleteI really like the green! You look great in both, but the aqua color really suits you! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteBlack!
ReplyDeleteI think you look cute in both as well, but I would definitely go with the black one with a colorful necklace. It seems like, if you're going to be switching into flip flops for the reception (great call, by the way), it might be nice to have a slightly fancier-looking dress. I'm sure you'll look great either way. (also a FB stalker...sorry)
ReplyDelete#2!
ReplyDeleteyou look so cute in both, however i am going to have to go with number one. i think it looks slightly more chic and bold with the color combo(very spring/summer) and looks awesome with the heels. the black is way cute too and i am so glad i get to see you in it in person. well i guess i see a lot of your outfits in person. i am the lucky one! hehe.
ReplyDeleteOf course you look great in both BUT I'm going to go with number one because those colors are fun and springy. :)

You're totally adorable -- love all the details of the fashion purchases -- too cute!
ReplyDeleteI vote #2, and agree -- *with a colofrul necklace/accessories.
Blake picked green too. I had to ask. :)
