WIW: trying out some prints, opinions please

I never wear prints so wanted to try something different

pic number one is from NRack-not sure about print-seems kind of busy?

I like the pic 2-from Bebe store-but black and white seems kind of bland

what is your preference if any?

I think I like print #2 a little bit more, but I like the fit of top #1 more - I know that's no help :p

The second print I like the more artsy flare of it, and its limited colours will be nice to match with anything in your closet.

Print #1 seems more ... boho. Is that your thing?

And I am not going to help either. I like both prints, but I prefer the fit of the second top. I like that there is more material -- it looks like you have it tucked or semi-tucked it, is that right? I prefer that. I am not that crazy about the abrupt crop of top #1. Somehow I feel a print like that needs a bit more flow in the shape of the top.
As for the prints themselves, I tend to really go for statement prints so I am more drawn to the first, but I think Lyn makes a really good point about the versatility of the second. Either could work depending on whether you want a workhorse or more of a statement piece.

I prefer #2. A little more current and a fun blouse shape too.

I prefer #2. I think the blouse shape and the pattern is more versatile if you were want to try some pattern mixing with it and another pattern down the road.

#1 looks dated to my eye.
#2 is interesting and modern.

thanks ladies. Actually tops are different fabric-#2 is soft chiffon like fabric, while #1 is polyester which is more stiff

my preference was also #2
