Please oh pretty please help me weddingify this dress!!!

[underactivethyroidmum]

After much searching for a dress -I don't wear dresses I am apple shaped , I have just bought this

www.planet.co.uk/en/charcoal-lace-shift-dress-232601

It is lovely on - very flattering on my wobbly size 14 bod but I have bought it for a wedding and would love some new shoes, bag and a shrug or wrap thing to go with it.

Please wise ladies give me your advice as I really don't have a clue !!

Ooh that's lovely, when's the wedding? If its a winter wedding that dress would look fabulous with an off white fake fur shrug/little cape type thing, hair up, bouffant type style? Diamanté stud earrings, dark tights like in the picture and a nice pair of black, round toed heels (Schue or Office always do a good pair).
Hope this helps!

Gorgeous dress!

I would style precisely as bootsy has suggested.

Vintage glam!

It's a very nice dress. What colour is the under layer?

The wedding is the saturday before Xmas so yes its a winter wedding

Ooh I like the vintage glam idea - I have black hair and pale skin so I like the 50's sort of glamour look

The underskirt is charcoal coloured and the lace is black so a cream fur wrap type thing would probably work

Thank you ladies !

You have the same colouring as me and that's my go to look! If it works for Dita...........

Red lippy and liquid eyeliner. You'll look fab

That is lovely and bootsy speaks for us all by the sounds of things!

Yep same colouring here too! Audrey inspired!

Even from your description I thought faux fur shrug like pp.

Gorgeous dress btw

Agree with all of the above. You'll look gorgeous!
