what can i wear with my wedding dress to keep me warm in november?

[kittylette]

heres the dress,

but what can i put with it that will match and keep me warm?

and any ideas on shoes?

the dress is an odd colour ivory/champagne and i cant seem to find any,

also im not very good with huge heels, i can wear a heal but not pointy thin heels,

and i dont like point toes

fussy beggar arent i??

A furry muff? norty
How about a cape with feathery trim?

And some silk long johns underneath?

Maybe don't try to match it, but tone in with flowers etc? Or go ott and have a cloak

fgs dont google furry muff

pashmina? Look here , they have loads of colours and styles. I have a couple and even the jacquard water one is quite warm.

haha, i agine DF finding that google search in my history!

More cloaks .

And various fur wraps and cloaks .

good lord, with a skirt that big you could wear trainers and no-one would see them, so an exact colour match is the least of your worries.

I found the shoes in bridal shops were all too high / narrow / pointy so bought them online - dancewear shops also often have a good selection. This type of shoe is good as they don't have huge heels, aren't too pointy, and the strap means they stay on when you're dancing. These people have quite a good range too.

No clue on keeping warm though - I got married in August specifically so I wouldn't have this problem - but if you wanted a shrug, cape or wrap, this is the cheapest place I know.

oooh i like the silk pashminas,

i was looking at this they do it in a more champagney colour too

but do you think its too much?? not price wise (she sells them for £70 btw in summer) just in the over all look??

thanks mrsbadger, will bookmark them,

i will be showing my shoes off in my garter shot tho! hehe

thanks jackie, not too keen on the cloaks, but theres loads of other stuff ill take a peep at

all v pointy though sleepycat...

ii think a damart thermal vest would be perfect

ill probably need a waterproof mac

anyone know where i can get one in ivorty

ivory

i need to start checking my messages before i post

get an umbrella or two in case?

Would you consider a colour? I have 3 dark red/wine coloured vevet wraps from Monsoon. My bridemaids had them but they would lovely as a bride too, and I would be happy to lend one out if that helps.

thanks kezza, thats lovely, but im having blue as my colour and it wouldnt really match,

but its lovely of you to offer

what about these shoes ?

or will i need closed toes in nov?

Where will you be doing pictures? Open toes not good if you're having to stand on wet grass or something (or do they provide a red carpet for you?) And you'd have to do the tights/stockings or bare legs thing, so yet another decision.

it's back on then? What happened put on a thread link

oh yea jackie. i cant do bare legs

our fil is giving us some money after all

Some nice round toed ones here .

I wore a floor length opera cloak and was very warm (january with snow on the ground)

It was black lined with lilac silk & my flowers were purples & cream - my dress was winter white

It was impressive (IMO)
