So, my darling 23 year old baby son is getting married in August. The wedding will be in a teepee in a field, so think wildflowers/poss sitting on haybales/poss rainy & muddy - you see why I'm nervous....
I think DIL to be is thinking of a purple theme, but not sure whether that means bluey or reddy end of the purple spectrum.
So I need to find something suitably dressy, but not necessarily high heels & hat dressy iykwim.
Ideally in purple.
I'm a large 12, 5 foot 4, not bad torso (hourglass) but my downfall is my arms which are about the size of most people's entire bodies. I really don't want them on show.
Also I'm 55 so can't wear anything too muttony. Hair is just past shoulders, darkish with highlights. May or may not wear a hat or fascinator. I also like wearing my hair high up.
So darling S&B people, please can you help me find:
A dress/dress & jacket combo
OR (if not too unconventional) a really nice trouser suit
Plus accessories. Would silver be a good thing to wear with purple??
Any advise much appreciated.
