I'd like to wear this dress to a wedding (if it looks ok) but

I also think I might look like a bridesmaid! Thoughts please?

I'd wear it with gold flats and a long necklace, make it a bit more day dressy


lovely dress.

[alwaysblue]

oooh its lovely. i dont think it looks bridesmaidy on its own, but that does kind of depend what the bridesmaids will be wearing! Stay away from the other thread on maxi dresses!

[gregssausageroll]

Thank you! I'd go for a longer necklace and possibly something from Lola Rose. I am hopefully going to try it on when in town on Saturday to see if it suits.

[alwaysblue]

ursula - thats what i would do too. and i am v stylish

[gregssausageroll]

I am going shopping with the bridesmaids on Saturday too so will be able to see what is chosen.

Other thread? Bah!

[alwaysblue]

might have a look for it myself too greg

[UrsulaBuffay]

Ooh relieved to have some style sense then!

[speculationisrife]

That's lovely and I don't think it's bridesmaidy unless the bridesmaids are wearing dark full-length dresses. I think it would look great styled as UrsulaBuffay suggests, too (and I do have style ). I just bought a Coast dress for a wedding myself - great fit and quality.

Thank you ladies. Not so worried about it now but that will depend on the bridesmaids choice on Saturday morning!

[YesterdaysPants]

Yep loads of gold accessories. The only accessories the bridesmaids will have is overstyled hair and a bouquet so you'll be fine

[gregssausageroll]

Thanks yesterdays.

[alwaysblue]

you just go and buy that dress first and then they wont get anything similar!

It's nice, though I have to say went to a wedding last weekend and the bridesmaid was wearing something quite similar in style and colour! :) That's just a co-incidence though, and otherwise I wouldn't think 'bridesmaid' when I saw it.
