Can I wear this for a wedding?

[FreakinFrankNFurter]

I am going to a wedding at the end of the month and trying to decide what to wear. I have put weight on so need to buy something new if this outfit doesnt work and because I've put weight on I'm struggling to find anything i feel would look good.

Anyway, self pitying moan over. Would this dress be suitable if i get black heels, new black belt and a clutch bag? It's not the best photo but hopefully you can tell.

I'm not a main part of the wedding. It's my husband's friend who is getting married so I'm unlikely to be in many photos. I only say the to mean I dont need to look super fancy, i obviously still want to look nice!

The wedding is in a converted oak barn attached to an old country ish inn

Yes I think so. It’s a lovely dress and it fits you well.

It's fine but very very bland. You have a lovely shape, I'm sure you could find better.

You look lovely. No need to buy new outfits if shopping will make you unhappy.

Add in a nice pop of colour with jewellery, bag, shoes, jacket, whatever works for you!

It looks really good on you and absolutely it’s appropriate for a country barn/inn wedding. I’m not wild about the shoes you’ve paired with it but you’ve said new ones anyway. Have fun!

Inthink it's lovely and you look great in it.

It's lovely for a wedding. Definitely get new shoes tho or even as it will almost be November some boots .

Lovely dress! I would wear it to wedding.

Yes, that will be lovely for a wedding.
Are you going to wear a hat? What jewellery are you planning on wearing?

I think that's how I feel about it too for a wedding, a bit meh. Not sure I have the energy or inclination to find something more interesting though at the moment which isn't great.

At least I've got a hair appointment for the week before so my hair should look half decent

Go for some bolder shoes and clutch and you'll look great.

I had bought the dress with heeled boots in mind for a kind of afternoon or not too dressy evening out in mind. Not thought about those for a wedding though

Dress looks good, shoes are horrible though. Heeled black ankle boots would be perfect for a winter wedding.

I'd wear that in a flash, you look lovely op, a real Bobby dazzler as my nan would have said.

Definitely need new shoes and clutch. I was probably thinking black but any thoughts on style or colour anyone?

I think it's fine for a wedding. You might feel under-dressed in it now but once you're wearing smart shoes, a clutch and some jewellery you'll be all set.

Most wedding outfits are about accessorizing, IME.

Gloss black court shoes will look great

Boots, not shoes, doesnt matter what type or colour as long as they make your heart sing!

Lovely... just needs accessorising a little. Maybe add a wrap or pashmina?

Perhaps a belt and a clutch in a bright colour, (turquoise?) and black shoes, as they would be more useful?

Yes will look lovely with a fascinator and bright buttonhole

I think you look lovely! No need to go out and stress about finding something new.

Hot pink always works well with leopard print

Lovely dress , you look fab

Wish I looked like that if I “had put on weight” ! It’s a v flattering dress …. maybe a wide gold or bronze belt and bag accessories? Or suede? Treat yourself to some fab boots or shoes - I don’t think black shoes and belt would do it justice
