September wedding

7 replies

I'm an 'evening only' guest at a September wedding, and I'm considering snapping up this dress in the sale

www.theoutnet.com/product/327433

I love the shape and think it would be quite flattering to my figure, but I couldn't carry off the fuchsia, so would need to go for olive. Is that too drab for a wedding, do you think?

If not, any ideas how I might style it?

Thanks, in advance.

I think it's beautiful.

I'd wear it with gold jewellery and snakeskin heels.

I'm getting married in sept- if its my wedding you're coming to i'd be very impressed! It's a gorgeous dress, i'd go for gold jewellery and nude/cream suede heels.

Thanks tethersend Smile

I quite like these shoes www.tkmaxx.com/bin/venda?bsref=tkmaxx&log=22&mode=add&curpage=&next=undefined&ex=co_disp-shopc&buy=25737063&invt=25737063&ivref=25737063&att1=6&qty=1&x=88&y=13 and think I would get quite a lot of wear out of them. OK, do you think?

Thanks! It's not but I do live very near there. Enjoy!

I would get something more this colour- I think the grey ones may be too drab.

Ugh, I love those tethersend, but know they'd kill my toes. I'm hoping to be doing a fair bit of dancing, so will need to get something more toe-friendly. But, I'll take your point about the colouring and see what I can get between now and September to match.

I've pulled the trigger on the dress, anyway. When it arrives, I'll do a bit of trying on of different options. The Outnet recommendations for matching jewellery were pewter shades, which is something I hadn't thought of. Loads of time to suss it out anyway.

Thanks for your help, ladies!
