Halter neck dress for wedding...but arghh...vest strap marks...help

Am going to a wedding at the weekend and the lovely weather we have been having has resulted in a lovely tan mark from my various vest tops....

Wedding outfit is a halter-neck dress. Doh!. I am fairly pale skinned (so fake tan looks really fake/brown on me - just the wrong shade) and burn easily - so although I can try and "fill in" a bit, I am fairly sure the white marks will still show by the weekend.

Do I just think fuck it and not care...or dare I risk some fake tan..(how on earth would I do this without looking like I have a brown rucksack on? Confused

Any advice please?

I am very pale skinned and use Garnier summer body light. to ward off the blue...It is very light .. Try just a little ..im sure it will help..

Could you get a friend/ partner to put it just on the white bits first and then the next day lightly al over the area ? That should help it blend in..

These are two options you could try:

I've used both and think they're great. Although the Sally Hansen is for legs I'm sure it would be ok for shoulders/arms. It doesn't wash off till you use shower gel on it. I'm currently using it on my shins because they're two different colours from wearing different length leggings. It really helps blend in the different shades!
