Wedding guest outfit advice

We are off to a couple of weddings in the next month so I needed to get an outfit. I saw this www.debenhamsweddings.com/product/navy-saskia-lace-jumpsuit/54510_202631351/?searchTerm=blue which is soooo far out of my comfort zone but yet, sooooo comfortable! It also looks quite good on me (am tall, and it hides my belly).
But, is it a bit....masculine? I love the lace sleeves, and the cleavage cut makes me think that it has a girly touch to it.
And, is it ok to wear to a wedding? First wedding is a full day event, second is an evening wedding dinner.

Also, what can I accessorise it with? I'm thinking either a thick gold bangle or lots of gold thin bangles. Necklace- yes? Not sure it it is needed, with the neckline.

That's great! You could add a necklace if you really wanted to (is it lower on you than on the model?) but there's no need at all. Do like the one you've linked though.

I like the jumpsuit a lot but not the necklace at all, it's very aggressive looking (for want of a better description)

YEAHHHH - I own that jumpsuit!

It gets loads of compliments and I am tall too.

In my case its a big NO NO for a necklace if you want to wear one - I don´t feel right without one, go for something simple and understated.

YES for bangles and sparkly earring and GREAT SHOES, I wore mine with silver shoes, bangles, necklace and earrings - would you like me to see if I can find the links to them to give you some ideas?

Thanks all. I love the necklace but you're right...it's quite extreme.

Newname... My shoes are....average. Matt gold, flat, pointy. I've got huge wide feet, and I detest shoe shopping as I never find my size. Plus, I cannot walk in heels. But I'll have a look at a link if you can find it?

Great to hear positive views on the jumpsuit! My mum saw me in it and told me to pull my tummy in. Bah. I've lost 10lbs in a couple of months but she couldn't find anything positive to say about it. Luckily, DH loves it, and I can read him like a book!
