Help me choose light fixtures! PIP heavy!

[annalatte]

Hello! I am looking for opinions on light fixtures for my future kitchen (house will be done in May). My hubby has zero opinion (which is annoying but good because I get to pick what I want).

I need 3 pendants for over the island and a large fixture for my casual dining area off of the kitchen.

My kitchen will look similar to this (only with a medium brown island and lighter hardwood floors). We'll have ORB hardware and SS appliances:



Another shot (note the dining area to the right. Our table & chairs are similar style to those in the pic. We will be hanging a large fixture there):



Another example:



So here are options I've found so far...


Island Pendants:

Option 1:



Option 2:




For the dining area:


Option1:



Option 2:



Option 3:




What would you guys choose??

It's from Lowe's.  it's an affordable ($119 I think?) alternative to one I fell in love with on Houzz, but will not buy, as it costs $400-something.
