OK, so here is the dress. Please, please help me find the hat and the shoes!

[BrothelSprouts]

Going to a friend's wedding at the end of July.
Have ordered this dress (as well as two others as really wanted a different fabric, but time is running out!)

Thinking of black hat with large brim?
And high shoes as I'm 5ft 2inches tall.

TIA.

bump

To be honest I wouldn't go with the black hat because of the white belt on the dress. Would you find white shoes/hat too much ?

Yeah I think I'd go for a white hat with that dress, I don't think black will go with it.
Am not sure about shoes..will go think

I see what you mean - can you tell I usually wear jeans?
Maybe white hat and black shoes then?
All white might be a bit much.

is the belt white or cream....Think I'm with TT would go for a cream hat and shoes and maybe a cream pashmina/shawly thing....Dress is beautiful btw, really lovely !!!

black hat?!
nooooo!

monstrously unflattering also
get cream or natural straw colour, ditto bag
will find you lime shoes

read this before choosing hat

Do you really need to wear a hat? could you not get a pretty hair piece in a matching colour?

Hmm... belt looks white on photo, but the dress hasn't actually arrived yet, so can't be 100% sure.
Dark green hat? Or would that be hideous?

DD wants me to wear a fascinator, but I'm not so sure.

No don't get a green hat, too much green I think

IF it is cream....
what about these
..or something similar.....
(hope link worked)

I think a fascinator would be nice, with a little bit of green in it. Then cream/white shoes.

Nope link doest work. lol

LOVELY dress. Check if belt is white or cream before buying hat though. You should be able to get lovely shoes in green.

Intrigued by what lies behind the link now!

OK, so neutral hat - poss straw?
Or fascinator?
Dark shoes - black or green?

Hobbs have the right lime shoes this season

bit more casual, good with straw hat

if fascin ator get a cream one

Ooohh, Mrs Badger, those suede ones (top link) are gorgeous.

Nice sandals

Sorry, meant to also say that I REALLY like Mrs B's Hobbs shoes.

As a jeans and trainers girl, what would I wear on my legs if I went for open toed shoes/sandals.
I usually wear hold ups on the rare occasions that I let my legs see the light of day.

To be honest, if it's summer then nothing but some Johnson & Johnson lightly tanning moisturiser....

Oh blimey - my legs are practically see-through , they are sooooo pale.
I have about six weeks - is this enough time to make them fit for public viewing.
And I always get streaks when attempting self-tan.
