Dress dilemma

8 replies

PinkSparklyElephant · 06/08/2014 11:10

I've bought this dress to wear to a wedding in September - coral lace.

I liked it when I tried it on but now I'm not so sure (and it's too late to return it Sad). What accessories would you wear with it?

My other choice is this animal print. Again I don't know what accessories to wear!

Please help me decide!

I like the first one - what fabric is it? No idea about accessories though - am in the same boat re lukewarm about a dress for a wedding and what to wear with it Grin

It's lace over a sort of nylon material - sorry, I'm no good at things like this!

Thanks. Tbh I think both would look good so wear the one you feel best in

First one is very 60s-esque. Something like these might work with it. It's hard to tell the colour of these but if they were more coral than red, they might work. Personally though, I'm v fond of tan - tan sandals and a tan leather clutch would give it a sweet, 60s-vibe, maybe with a silver cuff or some silver Indian-style bangles? Or would that be too informal?

You need Tethers.

I've seen the first one in real life and it's lovely, really wedding appropriate. Go with that.

I'm getting married in September, I wonder if it's my wedding you're coming to

Thanks everyone!

Remus, I love the 60s idea! I'll have a look for a pair of tan sandals - I don't think the Clarks ones will suit me as they've got an ankle strap and I've got fat legs! I do have a pair of nude shoes but they are very high and I'll tower over everyone (I had the same problem with shoes for my own wedding)!

Dorothy, if it is your wedding I've already sent you a picture of the first dress to see if you think the colour suits me...
