Outfit help please stylish mumsnetters

[Elasticatedwaist]

If you were going to wear a black dress to a wedding ( I know some think black is wrong ) what sort / colour / style would you go for ?
In need to be warm !

Oops what sort of COAT I meant to say

Well I'm looking at Ted baker coats atm, really smart, and money off at some places. With a lovely colourful warm scarf etc to counteract the black.
