I am thinking either... hair up, or down.. (durr) But with a headband or slide.
Can you help me find one please? I like the jenny packman ones, but my purse doesn't.

Also budget friendly heels, that aren't too high (I can't walk well in heels)

Registry office, no veil :D
Thanks

Gorgeous dress, OP. There are a few sparkly hair slides on the Debenhams website, or Not on the High Street have some lovely ones. They would tie in with the embellishment on your dress. Would be lovely with an up do.

Feathers would go well. Something like this

That's a very pretty dress! I'm afraid I have a lot of questions though -what size shoes are you after? Colour? Whta's your hair like? Do you need something to keep you warm? An idea of total accessory budget would be handy too.

Shall have a rummage

MrsLettuce · 19/09/2014 21:23

(feathers would indeed be lovely)

MrsLettuce · 19/09/2014 21:31

these would be lovely with the dress but you're probably not after sandals

Little gloves would be very vintage. Either wrist-length or mid-arm length.

A French Twist comb would be brilliant for up-hair, and you can get them for cheap, even decorated (indeed, it's hard to find a French Twist comb that isn't, these days).

actual flats but still not properly closed

Check out Debenhams for bridal shoes if you haven't already

2ndtimebride · 19/09/2014 22:01

Thanks everyone.
I'm a ombre mouse brown to blonde. Fair skin, medium length hair. Wedding is May next year.
I'm not liking on the gloves I'm afraid.
I would like to feel done and vintage though.
Oh budget - approx £150 to £200
Thanks :)

www.etsy.com have gorgeous bridal accessories. Crafty site, usually v reasonable.

Lovely dress op!

Up do with a lovely hair slide or comb like this

Wedding is probably the only time that shoes don't matter so much, as you can't see them. But I'd go for silver satin like satin shoes this

2ndtimebride · 20/09/2014 09:44

Love that slide! Thanks
Can't see the silver shoes, but I love that idea!
