Hi ladies,
My husband and I will be attending 2 weddings within a month of each other, one in February the other in March so it will be chilly. I'll be in one of the weddings as family (standing up at the alter with them but don't have to match), and my DH is a groomsman in the other, so it's important for me to look nice!
I'm unsure of which dress to choose. I'm a size 16 and big in the hips. I was planning on wearing a long pea coat with whatever dress I choose. I also have black knee-high boots that may work with one of the dresses, but would probably wear regular dressy heels with the other dress.
These are the dresses I'm considering:

The first is a sweater dress and is a little more casual/comfortable, but I think I like the 2nd better. I'm also nursing so I'm trying to aim for something that I could nurse easily with. The first is the one I'd likely wear boots with, but would boots work with the 2nd or would it look odd? I'm not fashionable at all so need help.
Should I choose something else altogether?
Thanks in advance!

I might have to do some digging around to see if I can find some longer ones.
I bought the second dress. Just have to buy shoes, and considering buying a better dress coat instead of doing a long pea coat, we'll see though. If it doesn't look right with my shape I can always return it and try again, hopefully it works because I really like the dress.
