something like this in orange?

Thanks Liz. I actually already have a shortish sleeved cardy in organge, too much orange do you think?

I'd go for a wrap/pashmina in the grey/pale blue of the outer covering.

Thanks Number, do you think a pashmina/wrap is for wearing outside and shedding once you're inside and sitting down? I'd prefer it than a cardy though - more sophisticated?

I agree that it would be more sophisticated than a cardigan and less 'worky', you could keep it on during the meal until the alcohol warms you up!

Have you got the shoes and bag sorted? Any hat or headwear?

Oh (big sigh) shoe wise I'm wearing my old favourites, a black strappy wedge, very comfy I can dance and drink (and possibly not fall over!).

No bag yet, I've got a small black bag (not really sure black is ideal, I think it's ok on my feet because they're not next to the dress and they are very strappy so not too much black iyswim). I would love a clutch the same colour as the pashmina, I'm imagining a silvery grey. Just don't think I've got the cash and time to shop unless I can nip to local M&S.

Not a hat/headwear kind of gal

Back later...
