Can anyone help me accessorise this dress for my wedding (less than 2 weeks away eeek!)

[StopHurtingMummyArghhhhh]

I'm having a total nightmare trying to find the following:

A shrug/bolero/cardigan.

Necklace.

Bag.

Have possible shoes - but boring black :(

I'm not sure what colours to put with it. I can't even find a dress I really truly like. This is the front runner www.lollypopvintage.co.uk/vintageweddingdresses/prod_3391245-Vintage-style-Teal-bird-print-50s-tea-dress.html

I'm pear shaped, wanting a totally non traditional dress, as it's just us on the day, no guests. I'd like to be able to wear whatever I buy for the rest of the day, without looking daft wandering about.

I'm a 12-14 (12 on top, 14 on the bottom) and like 50's style dresses.

How about this? Maybe?

better? Worse?
way off?

I think I might have googled the entire market supply of boleros and shrugs! I've seen all those and tried the monsoon one on today! and none of them are right :(

I'm so stressed right now its ridiculous!

A shawl?

I'm definitely not the type to wear a shawl .

I've got a navy blue long belted mac with cream piping. Maybe I could go like a tramp bride?!

Least it might match a bit!

Do you want a cover up for warmth or arm issues? I'm wondering if a lovely smart coat would work for the walking around part, and just take it off for the ceremony?

Cover ups:

ivory

feather

teal

teal again

I realise this is totally left field of what you were asking, but I think it might really work with seeing that dress pop under a oat.

I think sometimes bolero/cover ups can look just like that, a cover up that's thrown over a beautiful dress which can look awkward.

continues to ignore the brief more options!

Hmmm. Just looked at those. Nothing stands out :(

I know I definitely don't want a satin bolero - they don't match the dress. I think the mismatched fabrics would look shocking.

I like the fur one, but I'm not sure... I looked at one today, but it was too expensive, so I put it back .

I don't like any of the coats, although I am not put off at the idea of a coat. As long as it is not high necked. And it is fitted. And not more than £50!

coat?

simple cardigan?

the styling on this is awful - it looks much better here

creamier
and again
tan?!

Still no! I'm such a nightmare!

Nothing looks right with it! I'm very fucking tempted to just wear my black shrug (already own one!) black shoes and a black bag. Fuck it!

Go to a wedding shop and hire a faux fur stole, I got married in the winter and it kept me lovely and snug.

No! Don't wear the black!!
What about something like this

Hope the link works am on my phone.
FWIW I have this dress in navy and love it. You will look amazing! Congratulations

How annoying. It didn't work

Go with tutt's suggestion, I was trying to link a faux fur stole..

I love the dress. I did notice from the photos that you need a net undershirt to get that 1950's look. The 3rd picture on the site shows it without and underskirt and it hangs much straighter. I think it needs the net skirt.

They look red to me. But shades of red vary, and so do screens!

any good?

monsoon have 2 grey ones and 2 white/cream ones and one red one.
