Can I wear a cream fur capelet to a winter wedding...

....or is that too bride-y??? I've a dark green velvet dress to wear, but it's really plain, I'm looking for a way to jazz it up (also in my head have a peaky blinders/ Helen mccrory vibe, not that I'm anything near as foxy as she!)

Thoughts please?? 🤔

To be honest, the sequin jacket would be great with jeans and boots just to the pub too.

As soon as I read your post I thought of the M&S sequin blazer. I've been beaten to posting it! It would look great for the wedding and you'd get years of Xmas & other dos out of it.

What about something like this

A friend got one for a 20s fancy dress party - it looks stunning in real life

@Swannning I'm on tenterhooks to see what it is!!

The black sequin jacket or silver??? 🤔

The sequin blazer would be fabulous. I think a caplet would look odd over a long-sleeved dress.

I wouldn't as it's a classic winter bride look - unless you find one in a different colour? (Assuming the bridesmaids aren't!)

@AlwaysLatte right, am kiboshing the capelet!!

I am ordering the sequin jacket! There is a green version but it's sold out in my size, so have gone with the black. I love Mumsnet!! 🥰

So glad it appealed to you @fingfong

My very glamorous hairdresser told me about it, glad to pay it forward already.

As someone has already pointed out, it will be very versatile suitable for jeans as much as dressed. Enjoy.

Necklace wise, maybe jade or abalone shell necklace and earrings, would work with a dark green dress.
