HELP - wedding guest outfit needed

28 replies

Runningupthathill82 · 15/03/2016 16:45

So I'm going to a very close friend's wedding in June and I want to look good. It will be the first weekend away for DH and I since our DD was born, too. A new outfit is required!

But I want something different. The normal "wedding guest dress" from Coast, John Lewis etc isn't what I'm after.

I'm thinking something like a full skirt and separate top, maybe even a jumpsuit. Shoes are needed too. I'm pale and usually go for pinks/reds/purples. Don't really suit blue or green, though am open to ideas.

I have around £150 max for whole outfit,including shoes. I'm 5ft 5ins, currently carrying baby weight still,but working hard to be a size 10 again by June. I have big boobs and short fat legs.

All help much appreciated!

Your link from above.

I love this, and I love the simple black top and accessories with it. This would be a gorgeous wedding outfit.

Went to order the Asos skirt but it was out of stock. Argh! So I've ordered the floral midi from Elsie's. Most sizes were out of stock and they only had a few 10s left, so thought I should snap it up.
Will see if it fits and then try and find a top...
Thanks so much, all. Keep the suggestions coming though, as the skirt might be awful!
