I bought this pink/silver jacquard dress to go to a wedding.
It's a summer wedding but I might still need a little jacket or bolero (shawl?) also I am not that keen on my arms.

What would you get with this dress and which colour? I am thinking maybe a light pink?

What a great dress. I think I would look at silver grey. With the shape of the skirt, you would need a short jacket. Boleros are a bit off in my view. No-one wore one at the Royal Wedding! What about soft suede? A silver grey wrap with (fake?) fur edging? N Peal could have something suitable. I think more pink takes away from the dress and would be difficult to match.

I would go for a cropped blazer, something like this in cream or pale pink. Maybe in a lighter crepe if you are planning to wear it most of the day.

This Ted Baker might look good.

Thanks both! Great suggestions.

oh the Ted Baker bell sleeve is interesting!

I was thinking nude/champagne heels?

I think you’d need to try it to see but this or this much lighter cover up could work well.

This looks like a lighter weight jacket.

Yes, I agree about the heels.
