Ok big wedding party a week on Saturday.
Which outfit should it be?

Dress
This
Now I can't decide on the dress in Black or the pinky colour. If I go for black with the hair piece, will it look a bit funeraly? Also what colour shoes? Will black be way too much and what colour tights? Sheer or black?

I am getting this today!!!

Jackiehoho - thats what I wore to the sept wedding! Spooky!

twinsetandpearls · 27/12/2006 15:32

lol 2nervesnapartridgeinapeartree I justcan't do black shoes and a coloured dress, but I do ahve an anal fixation with footwearand oufits.

What about nude shoes, very flattering for the leg and will go with other coloured outfits.

JackieNoHoHo · 27/12/2006 15:35

Yes, I agree that black sandals would work better than black shoes, but glittery/nude would probably be even better.

As far as the dress goes, I think you can get away with wearing black more easily if it's not a church wedding, imo. And especially if you go for colourful accessories, like the red shoes.

JackieNoHoHo · 27/12/2006 15:37

Like the pink ones.

2nervesnapartridgeinapeartree · 27/12/2006 15:37

Love the black/blue ones. Yum.

twinsetandpearls · 27/12/2006 15:38

lots of gold/sparkly sandals over next few pages

twinsetandpearls · 27/12/2006 15:38

Wan't sure if the pink would clash with the colour of the dress.

JackieNoHoHo · 27/12/2006 15:40

Difficult to know whether the pinks work together until you see them together, I guess. More sparkly ones here (sale ones) and here .

I am ahving to walk away from the computer I ordered 2 pairs of shoes yesterday and can't possibly justify getting another pair and this thread is tempting me.

JackieNoHoHo · 27/12/2006 15:43

Errr never had asos shoes but tbh for £12 and to be worn on one occasion, I'm not that bothered.

JackieNoHoHo · 27/12/2006 15:46

How about some of these - some unusual ones there

twinsetandpearls · 27/12/2006 15:46

sorry was being very selfish and thinking of myself.

2nervesnapartridgeinapeartree · 27/12/2006 15:47

I think would look lovely. Love that colour combination.
If you think you need tights you can buy something call airbrush tights(i think) which is like spray foundation in a can for legs. Only tried on my hand but certainly looked good and doesn't come off unless you wash it off. Can get it in Boots for £10.

expatinscotland · 27/12/2006 15:53

Pinky colour for the dress.

Tights - depends on the shoes.

Hair thingy - not my thing.
