I am going to a wedding of a young couple ( 19 and 20) in 2 weekends time. I want to look chic. I am 5 foot 6 a 12/14 top and 10/12 botton, pale colouring.
What do you think to this?htt
p://www.nougatlondon.co.uk/floral-print-cotton-dress.html in green?
Is it over priced?
I have shoes, and a black phase 8 wrap round cardi and clutch would that work.
Thanks!

this one?

Drywhiteplease · 18/06/2014 20:16

Can't see it in green

Valdeeves · 18/06/2014 20:21

I like what you can see though

Fletcherl · 18/06/2014 20:25

Sorry no the link failed. Yours is beautiful but I have pale red hair and milky skin so that one is not the right colouring.
I will try again.

Ooh, love that print!

Primadonnagirl · 18/06/2014 20:28

That will look stunning with red hair!not sure about all black accessories though...maybe nude shoes and a really pale minty green wrap? Good value too

nilbyname · 18/06/2014 20:30

not keen on your dress, but I like this one...

[[http://www.nougatlondon.co.uk/lois-print-wrap-dress-jade.html good for your colouring and would suit your figure better}}

MrsLettuce · 18/06/2014 20:37

I liked that one too nilby but it looks awfully transparent on the model.

Is this the same cut as your green dress, do you think OP? I wonder if it might not flatter significant frontage, it;s higher at the neckline than I'd though the green was.

nilbyname · 18/06/2014 20:39

this one

Fletcherl · 18/06/2014 20:44

Thanks Nilbyname that one is a great shape. I am still not sure about the pale colour I am pale too and suit vivid colours that are not harsh.
For the first dress I do have nude shoes but the only other thing I have that might do is a kelly green wrap. Does that look too much like the St Patricks day parade!

I might layers a bright coloured skinny belt over the top of the belt on the dress I linked too.

I think I have seen a green whistles dress you might like...hang on....

eatyourveg · 18/06/2014 20:49

I like this one the best

nilbyname · 18/06/2014 20:50

this is lovely

not the right shape maybe?

Fletcherl · 18/06/2014 20:56

Eatyourveg that is stunning and would look amazing with my hair. I am having trouble working out what sizes they have. Weirdly in Nougat I go down a size. The cut is so great they act as a sort of corset!

Thank you Nilby.
I am never sure about Whilstles shapes. I am a Pepperberry shape. That is I need my clothes to be cut around my figure or I look like I am tubby or smuggling puppies in my dress.
All fantastic suggestions.

Your circle print dress is by far the nicest n youngest. I absolutely love it and it's not hackneyed
