You were all really helpful with my hen do outfit yesterday. Will this do for the wedding do you think?

I really love that dress too. Just saw it on John Lewis website and it has great detail at neckline. There is no point going for something which isn't you and therefore you feel awkward, you want to go for something that is the wedding guest version of you.

I think it's perfect for a wedding and probably wouldn't try and mix it with bright accessories but again go for hair, make up and nails to make YOU look great rather than the bag being what people are drawn to. Maybe a bright 'hot' pink nail and lip?

You could go for it in the bright pink one if that suits your colouring better.

I'd go for a dress like this if I was going for silver type dress

Sorry no I meant silver accessories (but muted silver rather than shiny iyswim).
I do like that dress though but isn't it a bit too close to cream or white

This dress love it!

That is nice but really not my colour, I have red hair!

Probably a bit close to white. Reckon you could get away with it at an evening winter wedding though.

Don't wear a necklace with that dress, you don't need it. I think brushed(?)/dull silver would work well - earrings, bangle.

Red hair how wonderful... I'd go for a green dress?!? Navy accessories?

StealthPolarBear · 15/06/2018 09:34

OK I'm buying the dress and this scarf, will wear silver shoes and bangle and a silver bag. Even if I don't end up wearing the dress or scarf the two together were only £30!

Isn't green frowned upon?

I really like the dress you picked op. I think it's good for a wedding.

ShootingQuadrantids · 15/06/2018 09:42

Ooh not sure? The dress you've picked is lovely though and it will look equally as good with red hair! Enjoy the day stealth x

Well the dress has arrived and is lovely but I need to lose weight :(
