Dress - Nordstrom Rack
Heels - Moda
Belt - F21
When accessorizing this loud but fun dress, I couldn't decide whether to go with cheerful yellow or a conservative gray. I wasn't even going to post the gray option...but here it is:
Just goes to show how accessories can completely transform an outfit! The gray almost looks...well...boring compared to the yellow.
But then I wondered what YOU would think looked best...
So are you on Team Yellow or Team Gray?

Yellow!
Yellow! What a cute dress! You're adorable!
I like the gray, SO CUTE! And you are so skinny you lucky girl! :)
This dress is adorable. I love how it's toned down with the gray and how it pops with the yellow. Can't go wrong with either one.
team yellow and team gray. they're for totally different occasions though and i lean towards yellow for summer wow factor.
you look great, by the way!

Love the yellow! Ok random question, do you do a Selkirk tanning lotion or a spray tan? Do share please.
Well, I'm sure you're not surprised, but I vote yellow! That dress is awesome by the way!
Yellow!!!

this dress is amazing! and you look great in it! I love the bold yellow shoe, but I could definitely see a time and a place for the gray as well. Plus, it's always good to have options. ;)

Team yellow!! It's so fun!
Your yellow pairings are so fun! Oooo another bright and fun combo would be cobalt blue. What do you think?
Marion you look stunning! Hope your pregnancy is going well! xoxo, Phoebe
Yellow all the way!!
Team Yellow all the way! It makes the pattern just pop! The grey totally pales in comparison.

If I wore this I would look like a flat screen tv that was all screwed up when the cable goes out. I am sending you a potato sack. See if you can do something with it. This is beautiful.

I am team "it doesn't even matter because that dress is so fabulous". I think both look great and it just depends what you are dressing for.
Ps. Your baby bump is SO cute.

Hands down Team Yellow! The yellow belt throws so much more structure into the dress than the darker belt does. What a fun dress!

Love both looks, but I don't think I could do yellow. It's a little (okay, a lot) outside my comfort zone. That said, yellow looks great on you!
Such a cute dress and the yellow heels are perfect!! Everyone needs a loud dress in their closet

The gray is lovely, but the yellow is just so cheerful! You look so happy!!! ~Sarah
LOVE your dress! I am going to pick a little from each column - I really like the yellow shoes and the darker belt. :)
I think the color of the shoes gives you two different looking outfits - the yellow brings out the colors in the dress while the grey gives it a more muted look. I actually like both!
Totally team yellow - you look amazing! I mean grey is still nice, but yellow really pops.
Team Yellow all the way. The gray doesn't really do anything for the outfit.
So pretty!! That dress is so cute!!
Team Yellow for sure! The gray is cute but the yellow stands out!! :)

Yellow! It keeps the whole thing very lively, which is a good thing!
Yellow all the way! It was like an instant mood booster! LOVE IT!!
Yellow for sure! You look great! :)
This dress is pretty loud...but mostly pretty adorable! I love it! And I'm definitely going to have to go with the yellow accessories. They are so cute with this outfit. :)

Yellow, it makes the outfit pop! Super cute!

Girl, you know you don't even have to ask me....i LOVE the yellow!!!! Yellow is the new "tan", just in my head of course :-)

I normally don't wear yellow but this dress is adorable...would definitely wear it. Beautiful!!
Such a beautiful dress! Love all the colors and the print is very interesting! And definitely yellow, just like the cherry on top of the cake!

That's funny that I just posted about yellow recently too. Yellow all the way!
Wow, it IS amazing how much a simple shoe can totally add life to an outfit. I like how you posted both options for us to see though. I would've gone with the yellow as well!
http://thriftyandshameless.blogspot.com
I vote yellow too! ;)
I've gotta know-- what brand is this dress? It's stunning!!!
@ MMM - Thanks so much! And I know this is weird, but the dress didn't have a label. It was stuffed in the way back of a stand at Nordstrom Rack and I just loved the pattern!
Sorry that wasn't very helpful...
xo - Marion
Thanks @Marion Green for responding about the dress! Ah well... just thought I'd ask! ;)
Also, I just discovered your blog and I'm truly loving your style!!! I am a mother of three and I plan to have one more baby (I know, I'm crazy!) so I'll be refering back to your blog for maternity fashion looks and non-baby bumb looks!
Thanks for all your hard work that you put into your blog! I look forward to your future post... ;)
@MMM - Of course! I am just sorry I wasn't able to help. Kinda weird that it didn't have a label!
Anyway, thank you for your sweet comment...I really appreciate it. And how awesome that you are planning on four...very impressive! We'll see how I do with my first! :)
xo - Marion
