Got a christening and friends wedding coming up- wedding smallish, reception at a bistro type place so not overly formal but would this dress be ok for both?

I'll be 7 months pregnant when going to these.

If it is ok what shoes can I wear I'm not good in heels and will be running around after a toddler on both occasions was thinking very low brown wedges would they be ok? And a brown cross over bag or is that too casual?
Thanks

Yes. It's lovely :-)

It's really lovely Smile
I wouldn't say with brown accessories though with black.
But pretty much any other colour! What about a bright red?

Wishful80smontage · 17/08/2015 20:05

I could do red- both occasions late sept. I need low heels or low wedge that I could walk in any suggestions?

No to the brown accessories or a cross body bag of any description.

burnishedsilver · 17/08/2015 20:20

Red ballet flats.

Wishful80smontage · 17/08/2015 20:26

Are flats ok? Are they dressy enough. What bag is ok?

Forgot to say that the dress is lovely.

Hayels · 18/08/2015 00:58

I like the last ones Dowser
I'm so rubbish with flat shoes and understand but LOVE these, and they're not too high and would be more comfy coz they're strapped on

Teal, a hot pink or plum would be nice too

Wishful80smontage · 18/08/2015 12:46

Thanks all like the block heel pumps both and the last ones- would you go black in those?

I've seen these low wedges in next I like them but they are black- are black shoes ok? And would bag need to be black also?
Thanks rarely wear black as you can tell :?

nude shoes might work well.
small heel?
Bargain clutch bag
I also thing orange/tan would work well.

hellsbellsmelons · 18/08/2015 14:50

Black will be fine as well.
As you will be 7 months pregnant I'd say you can do pretty much anything you want to Grin

hellsbellsmelons · 18/08/2015 14:51

think with a K!!!

IssyStark · 18/08/2015 15:09

Definitely. I'd go for a colour for the shoes and a clutch bag (could be anything you want but brown or navy, maybe something bright like red, teal etc. Basically anything that you think you could get away with again with other stuff in your wardrobe.

If you aren't too comfortable wearing black, there are these options from vertbaudet in red or in browns, or from Izzy's Mum this jazzy print or this one in grey, blue or purple

IssyStark · 18/08/2015 15:10

Btw, they are all maternity and breastfeeding dresses so you can get a good lot of wear out of them.
