Absolute newbie needs help on coordinating wedding outfit!

Hi everyone,

I'm a really fashion unconscious person who has to put together a outfit for my SIL's wedding. I picked out this lacy teal dress and am now trying to find shoes and a clutch to go with it. I was wondering if a light dusty grey colour might look good? I found these shoes I quite like on ASOS but i'm not sure if they're ok (I need flats because I properly can't walk in heels)

Can I still wear nude tights with open back shoes like those?

I really like this bag to go with it because its a bit unusual and might add a bit of interest to the outfit www.amazon.co.uk/LeahWard-Womens-Patent-Wedding-Handbags/dp/B07F3FDC65/ref=sr_1_31?keywords=light%2Bgrey%2Bclutch%2Bbag&th=1&tag=mumsnetforum-21&ie=UTF8&qid=1534437781&sr=8-31

what do you think o wise style folk?

I think it'll all look lovely. Grey is a nice alternative to nude. M&S have some pale grey kitten heels which would look lovely too, not too high at all.

M&S do tights with a seamless toe if you want tights with open toe shoes. Love your dress! Smile

CherryBlossom23 · 16/08/2018 17:52

Oops, misread and thought you had open toed shoes. In any case I think m&s do totally seamless tights. I don't think anyone would notice you had them on provided they are the right colour and not overly shiny!

I think you could go for a nice pink or a gold (if the grey doesn't work out!) Might lift the colour and make it pop a bit more?
