I'm going to a wedding in April. Its an all day event and will be nice but not overly posh. I'm really drawn to this dress, what does everyone think?

Not something I'd wear personally as in not keen on the neck design but I think it's fine for a wedding. Lovely colour :)

Forgot to say.. I'm size 12, 5ft 8 with small boobs. Red hair and pale skin.

It's not something I'd usually wear but I really like it!

If you like it, buy it!

I think it is lovely and perfect for your colouring!

Zippetydoodahzippetyay · 16/02/2019 10:52

I love it. Sounds beautiful with your colouring too.

SymbollocksInteractionism · 16/02/2019 10:52

Was thinking with dark pink shoes. Probably block heel so I can walk!

Sounds perfect for your colouring and build.

SymbollocksInteractionism · 16/02/2019 10:53

Thanks everyone. I'll order it and see what it's like. At least with ASOS the returns are easy!

Beautiful dress!

SymbollocksInteractionism · 16/02/2019 10:55

What colour of shoes/bag does everyone think?

It's a lovely dress and I'd wear with pink shoes and bag. Will you be wearing a hat/fascinator Id try and match the colour of the dress.

Stunning dress

Sounds great for your colouring and build

SymbollocksInteractionism · 16/02/2019 11:06

Probably no hat or fascinator but maybe some sort of hair clip. My hair is chin length just now so was thinking 1950's style waves with a clip on one side?
I thought maybe dark pink shoes and a dark green bag, picking out the colours on the dress.

And dark pink lipstick!

You will look stunning. Think you are all sorted ! Enjoy the day

SymbollocksInteractionism · 16/02/2019 11:57

Thanks Gonegrey I'm going to order the dress now. It'll make a change from my usual black!

I'm now thinking red shoes? I quite like these and think they'll look ok with pale green. Or will I look a bit garish?

The dress is very pretty, will be great with your colouring, I'm not so sure about the red shoes though, maybe best to wait until you get the dress and then decide on shoes.

SymbollocksInteractionism · 16/02/2019 19:53

That's probably good advice.. had too much time on my hands today and got lost in the world of online shopping! 😁
