It?s a Christmas do, so ages away, I know, but this is DH?s work do and it is really important that I get it right, impressions count in this, his new job.
My web search has not helped at all so I thought I?d ask those who actually know!
Firstly, I want to ask if a long, floor length white dress is acceptable or is white a wedding dress colour, as I have a acquired a lovely silk one. It is very flattering on me, which is great, and seems very formal to me. Do I have to have a colourful dress?
If white is an acceptable colour, do I need a colour to brighten it up. If so, how and with what?
As it?s winter, would a bolero be acceptable, and if so, what fabric/colour?
What style shoes should I wear?
Do I go for matching colour bolero, shoes and clutch bag or should bag and shoes be white to match dress and colour in bolero only?
What jewellery do I wear? My ears are not pierced.
Links would be great if you can. Thanks all.
Very low budget, around £100-150 total.
