Or is it too bridal being this colour? Thanks!

All gorgeous. I would say it depends on the bride - how well do you know her, would she consider it bad form? Perhaps not a good idea to a more formal wedding. I have had friends who've worn cream to weddings and they looked great - no question. They were great friends with the bride though...

Oh thank you. She is my Aunt, but it is quite a formal wedding. My dd is a flower girl and as she is 2 I will be holding her a lot, and I guess potentially carrying her down the aisle? So I feel I need to buy a dress to blend in with bridal party! Hmm They are wearing ivory/silver/pale blue/dove grey - my dd is wearing pale blue and ivory.

I've got cream patent peep toe shoes and various cream cardy/shrug options for my outfit.

I love dress 3 but couldn't see dress one, coast links don't work on my phone.

Lovely - I would say the 3rd one is my favourite

lycheemartini · 15/04/2012 22:13

The final dress is described as mink coloured, so probably safest, does it look the frumpiest though?

Ooh votes for 3! Fantastic! Thanks.

I think dress 3 is perfect. I think the 1st is bridal, and the 2nd looks a bit matronly.

wishiwasonholiday · 15/04/2012 22:20

I like the first one, but maybe too bridey? Lovely though

lycheemartini · 15/04/2012 22:23

Yep I agree no. 1 is too bridal. I'm ordering no.3 as we speak! Thanks so much.

Yep no 3 is lovely. You will look fab and it will complement the bride's dress well without competing.

lycheemartini · 15/04/2012 22:32

Thanks :)

Dress 3.

Dress one is nice, but if you are carrying a toddler you would be bending, hitching the dress up and so on and perhaps end up not looking very elegant at all!
