...about my outfit for a family communion.
Hi all,
It's a double communion (my younger brother and cousin) so I need to look good plus there will be photos. I was wearing navy trousers, a blush pink top, a blush pink scarf, a navy cardigan, a blush pink clutch and navy Chelsea boots (I've only bought the trousers, top and scarf), but now I hate the idea because I saw a black jumpsuit. So now I am wearing: A (different) black jumpsuit, a leopard print belt, black boots, a black shoulder bag with gold hardware and some sort of black wrap or cardigan (not bought any yet). I was crying down the phone to my cousin then my gran about not knowing what to wear and feeling like shite. I was talking to my uncle about my plans for the day before the communion (this was before I had doubts about what to wear), and he said I'm taking it too seriously and it's not the royal wedding. Am I being a diva?

Navy and pink outfit sounds perfect to me. Smart and fabulous. The cardi and scarf allow you to adjust for a possibly cold church and a really warm after party. Jump suits are lovely but not so practical for a long day, or as easily adjustable for the varying temperatures (not to mention the loo)
Wouldn't go with black or animal print for a first communion in church.

It's a day for the children to look fabulous.

You were given loads of help in S&B with your outfit which you were set on having so I don't understand why you changed your mind?

@RedRedWines, am I supposed to turn up like SuBo just because it's not my day?
@Riv, I love the idea of the navy and pink outfit, but I hate it tooConfused

@JaneJeffer, because I've had my head turned.

OP has already posted on this riveting matter in S & B. Please someone sort out her outfit and let us never hear of it again.

What age are you?
The navy outfit sounds like an older womans outfit. Kinda my mums style.

@WeakAndWeary thank you, thought I was going mad with the navy and blush references. Really doesn't need two threads op.

@WeakAndWeary, did you mean to be so rude?
