I'm not good at dressing like a girl... How would you accessorise this dress?!

[AlpacaPicnic]

I've bought this dress to wear to a wedding at the beginning of June. Would creamy coloured scarf/shawl, bag and shoes look ok? Or would you pick a different colour? It's a bit more green that it looks in the picture... would you get a poofy petticoat to wear under it to give it a bit more shape or would that look like fancy dress?

Sorry, I'm panicking, which is so silly but I've not worn a dress for years ages. Or anything coloured. That's not me in the picture btw, that's a much thinner person, I'm a 24!

I would wear a pouffy petticoat for sure.
Cream bag shoes and I would get a pashmina too cos my upper arms are a bit wibbly wobbly.

I'll find a link for petti.

Is that you in the second picture, OP? You're gorgeous! I think a cream pashmina would work well, or possibly one to match the colour of some of the flowers on the dress.

Lady V is where I got my emerald petti but they've only got white atm.

Oh bless your compliment but that's definitely not me! I'm twice that lady in size and possibly age as well!

Lady v, I'll have a look at them, thanks!
