Wedding Outfit... Choice of two. Help me decide

60 replies

I'm off to a wedding in Saturday. No dress code, but it's nice to make the effort.
I'm on crutches at the mo so wanted something long to cover my bandages.
I bought the spotty one a while back and really like it.
Now, the floral one is my Mum's, vintage Jaegar from the 80's... It's the first time it's ever fitted me and I love it - it also has pockets, always a bonus.
I'm torn now...the spotty is fun and comfy. The floral makes me feel a little bit more dressed up.
I've got accessories, shoes and (biker) jacket for both - pink or black.

Soz for the crappy photos/angles...my full length mirror is down stairs and I couldn't be bothered with the bum shuffle.
Both dresses are ankle length, the floral has alittle more volume in the skirt than the picture shows.
Help me decide 😩

Spotted one! Makes you look like you're ready for some fun!

The jaeger is far more interesting and therefore gets my vote!

The Jaeger is lovely.

I'm always amazed at what people claim to wear to the pub. It looks far too classy for that!

SantanaBinLorry · 24/06/2022 18:56

I defo wouldn't wear it too the pub, it's way too fancy for that (me!)

It looks like Spots is the winner. OH said it was waaay sexier, which is fine by me. He also said the Jaeger was a little bit Joan Collins 😆😲 But that he would buy me a big stupid hat and take me to the races - where I think it would fit perfectly.

Managed to pick up a little bag and neck scarf the exact same colour as the pink on the dress, and two different shades of pink lipstick.
I'm gonna have to cave and wear my black Chelsea boots though, my poor legs and feet won't last the whole day/night in flats/pump. They'll go with the biker jacket so that's ok.
I feel a little bit Pink Ladies from grease, but I'm comfy and it's fun.
I'll post a pic tomoz

Thanks for all your help 😘

Which do you find easier to move in with the crutches & most comfortable? I personally like the spotty one. The sleeves of the floral may snag with the crutches.

Jaeger for sure. Not keen on the spotty.
Blokes will always choose clingy Grin

Your own words suggest you should go with The Jaegar!

I know! I know!
But the spots win this time.

I'll just have to get to another special event soon.
