Hello, I've never posted here before so forgive any faux-pas.

I don't like dressing up, I am currently wearing gym leggings and a long top...

But I have a wedding in April and have ordered two dresses. They arrived yesterday and I kind of like them both but prefer the pale pink one on (I will link them)

Problem is, what colour shoes/bag would go with pale pink? I have never worn dresses this style before but I think they look fine on.

I have recently lost 2st and you can see my waist again!

I was wondering if rose gold would suit?

The other issue is I am size 2 feet - I can wear 3 wirh a strap which is what I usually do. I am 4ft 10 so a heel is welcome...

Will see if I can post screenshot of dresses. They're not expensive dresses, I probably won't wear them again.

I see they have silver with the blue one now, I could do silver?

Any advice? Thanks

Ps: they're both quite high necked so won't think I'd need a necklace?

Hi, no you won’t need a necklace, a simple bangle is all.
I think either silver or rose gold shoes would look great, don’t match the bag though.

What bags do you currently have? A little leather cream bag could work if you have one. Something simple, a clutch perhaps or even a small structured raffia bag you could use again through summer. I’ll see if I can find the kind of thing I mean.

What sort of colouring do you have? What colour hair?

Fridaysgirl · 02/03/2019 12:47

If you want to make a real statement I'd go for maroon/deep red shoes and handbag with the pink dress.

As pp said you don't need a necklace.
The colors I pair up with my light pink dress are.
Mint.
Lilac
Silver.

luxury I love the first bag!

trending I'm blonde. Will have a spray tan I suppose.

friday and babyspider all those colours sound good too! Will have a search for them in a size 3! Thanks all

What about head/hair accessories?

I don't think rose gold goes with pink

Silver better

Or pale ivory

SrSteveOskowski · 02/03/2019 13:27

I think silver too. Primark have started to do size 2 in footwear. They're few and far between, but if you have a big store anywhere near you have a look and you might find something.

I might be completely wrong but I also think blondes look better in slightly darker dresses and brunettes in lighter dresses.
(I know it's a sweeping statement, but just my opinion and I'm not blonde and don't particularly scrutinise what people wear either so feel free to ignore me!) Grin
