Nail and lippy colour?

Can you please help ladies. I just cant decide which colour nail varnish and lipstick will go with my outfit for a wedding. Im wearing a "light denim" jumpsuit which is a light grey/blue/purple colour with cobalt blue heels. I am fairly pale, blue eyes, blonde hair. What do you think ladies? Thanks very much.

For lipstick, I prefer cool toned colours as warmer tones make my teeth look quite yellow. I'd probably go for a colour similar to Tom Ford Violet Fatale - maybe just worn as a stain as it is very bright. A red similar to Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm in 250 Standout would be very nice too (and these lipsticks are great quality and affordable).

If warmer tones are better on you, then a coral lipstick would be nice and very summery. I like something in the style of Guerlain Rouge Automatique in 143 Nahema.

A cool toned pink nail polish would work well with grey, blue and purple. A pink similar to Chanel Tentation looks great IMO.
You could also go for grey or taupe, but it might be a bit boring with your outfit having very similar colours/tones. But that's a matter of taste - and it's hard when not having seen the outfit with the nail polish colours.
Or just go for a coral - it looks great on most people and seems to be the colour to wear this summer. I really like Essie Cute as a Button.

Aww ok. I'll still advise though from what I read. I'd go for a subtle light pink lipstick. and either pink purple or grey nail varnish or how about a french manicure.
Ah you're user name is taken from the begining of the song "Dub be good to me" from 1990. The next line would be You're talking to the boy from the big bad city, this is jam hot. Sorry ins and outs of a duck's arse there.
