Shower and RD dress ideas

I bought this dress for my shower. I almost because it's a smaller size than I've worn in YEARS

Do you think it's too dark a color? My wedding color is purple, so I was thinking of finding a purple dress, but this one looked good on me.

I am thinking of ordering this one for the Rehearsal/dinner. I think it woud be cute to wear white. I was going to order it a size bigger because it's fitted, but I was thinking maybe I should order the smaller size since I have over 3 months to lose more weight. Then again, the larger one can be taken in. Thoughts?

Any other ideas? I'm short and I'm ordering 14W or 16W, so I can't shop at just any store

They're both from Dress barn. I find that clothese there fit me well. Do you see anything else three that is cute?

I like the first one and the last one.

I'm not a fan of the white dress - something about it just doesn't appeal to me, but that's just me.

THe first and last one are super fun!

I like the purple and white ones. I don't love the bold pink with black and white dress look. You can probably add a nice purple belt to the white one.

Thanks! I like the color of the lavendar one, but I think the print can look grandma ish. I wish I could try it on, but they didn't have any of these in the store..just the 1st one, which I did buy, and is my current shower dress top pick.

I reallly like all of them! The white one is perfect for the rd and I think my fave of the others is the black and pink one!

I love the two from the first post! I dont think the blue is too dark and I think the white one is really cute and classy looking.

Re: Shower and RD dress ideas

Thanks! I already bought the blue one (and another blue one) and I just ordered the white one and the pink one and a pair of cute black slingbacks. I figure I can try them all on and return the 1 or 2 I like least. I need at least one for the shower and one for the RD, plus it doesn't hurt to have a nice dress or two for the honeymoon!

Re: Shower and RD dress ideas

i really like that last one, but don't you have a dress barn near you where you can try it on? i wasn't even aware that you could order from the dress barn online. i was never able to before.

Personally, I like the first one best - very flattering shape.

I tried on and bought the blue one. i didn't see any of the others in store. I also bought another lighter blue one that's more of a sheath with a light blue shrug in store. I ordered the white and pink ones. I'll have choices!
