Dress for evening wedding

7 replies

Going to a wedding, evening “do” next week. Meant to lose weight. Haven’t 😐. No idea what I can wear to the extent that I’m thinking of just not going.

I’m 57. Size 14 top and 16 bottom. Can’t spend too much. Any help at all, much appreciated.

Was thinking of this but...what shoes?

Silver heels , and jewellery
Or cerise pink

Silver shoes and bag would be great. I would definitely add some sparkle with jewellery too. Just take a fake fur jacket if it’s cold!

Please go. Size 14 isn’t huge (it’s absolutely normal!) and obviously the bride and groom want to see you!

@BubblesBuddy Yes, I will go. My mum’s in hospital at the moment and each time I leave I think it’s the last time I’ll see her. I guess I’m not in the best place but, I should go and (try to) look fabulous even if I don’t feel it.

I’ve ordered the dress. Will hunt for shoes and tend to wear silver jewellery (when I do) mostly.

I think the dress is really nice and I’m sure you’ll look lovely in it

Sometimes enjoying the company of others is what you need when life is stressful. Have a lovely day and best wishes for your Mum.

Love the dress and I'm a 12/16 depending on shop so it's not huge. I'd buy it because it's the sort of dress you could wear to other things and you can dress it up or down. I'd accessorise with sparkly shoes, handbag. Because of the neckline no necklace required but statement earrings and/or bangles
