Congratulations! I think the top is lovely. There's perhaps a bit of difference in style between your outfit and the girls dresses but the most important thing is that you like what you are wearing and can enjoy the day. Have you got time to book and go to one of the free stylist appointments that Debenhams etc offer? I did that for a family wedding a few years ago and found several lovely options.

I like the top but I do think it's a very different feel to the dresses. There's also no point in wearing something you are not comfortable in.

Searching...

Would you consider something like the Linea Glitter Wrap Dress in red and black on the House of Fraser website, with scarlet knee length boots? On phone so can't link.

That top is beautiful! You look lovely.

You and the kids are in very different styles of clothing, but does it really matter? If you're all happy and comfortable, that's so important.

Congratulations on the weight loss, that's a massive achievement.

Ooh!! Debenhams have over the knee burgundy flat suede boots with gilt heels, name Katie,£50. ?

Thanks all -
annandale I have really huge calves, basically thighs that meet ankles, so I kind of like to hide them as a rule, which is why I tend to lean towards trousers. I like the silver dress more than the red and black one on the house of frazer site. I'm in France so it would be a matter or ordering online, do you know what their sizing is like?

Other point is DP is also a shorty a couple of cms taller than me (if that) so I'll definitely be in flats as that's my preference anyway.

how about this?

That's GORGEOUS

I think that would look gorgeous

Haha xpost!

Yes, the dress is lovely and should match more with your girls. Shoes?

That last one is gorgeous for a winter wedding OP.

How fortunate you all agree its BlackFriday and I'm on the case. Thank you so much.

Probably black flats - unless you all think I should wear something else. Strangely I have a rather beautiful pair of geox ones.

How about black tights with sparkles on?

Also having a bit of a faux fur thing with the girls

What do you think of these

coat 1

or

coat 2

or anything from here

faux fur coats

Or help - the choice is overwhelming - I like fitted but have large upper arms which can be an issue.

That house of Fraser dress is lovely and either coat1, coat 2 or the Jane Norman shrug would look lovely with it.

Just thought - we haven't done rings! Off to amazon now.

Ok so final choice here.

Two different jackets and two different shoes. Any thoughts please.

Different shoes and jacket.

Pale shoes. Gorgeous!

Is this a serious post

The pale shoes without a doubt. They match they jacket and will go better with the dress. You will look amazing.

Why wouldn't it be original?

I'm not sure whether you posted the wrong photo initially? It's a photo of a jumper and leggings?
Your recent photos are of a sparkly dress?

Maybe I've finally gone mad and am hallucinating.
