Hi, going to a wedding in March, so not expecting it to be very warm! I have got this dress, but not sure what shoes to wear with it and also would like something to cover up if it's cold but again not sure what.
I am size 8-10 and pale, so anything cream coloured makes me look washed out . In terms of shoes, would like some height but not too much, and maybe wedge or block heel
so not too uncomfortable. Also not sure on accessories..... any advice from the style gurus on this board would be really welcome!

Bright pink looks absolutely lovely with this dark emerald green colour. High recommend a pair of bright pink heels and a bag

Thanks - that sounds good.... not sure if I'm brave enough though...

Looked at some images online, and pink does look good - just not sure about a wrap/ cover up/ jacket of some kind, and what colour - any ideas welcome.

Do you definitely need a cover up of some description? It’s just my opinion but the lace sleeve would be enough for me to brave the outside for a few minutes if not an outdoor wedding; I’d just wear a black wool coat to and from venues.

I would definitely brave the pink, just the heels and a clutch bad in that bright pink will really pop and it’s not too much. Plus if it’s not something you’d usually go for you’ll feel ultra good about it when you’re out and getting compliments on them! 🤭

Green also teams very well with navy, black, tan, silver, gold - and you would probably find that these colours would also match with other items in your wardrobe, perhaps you even have a bag or shoes that might suit already

These are high, but come in black, navy, purple

These are a bit more wearable

Maybe this bag

Not too high but still fabulous

I wore these shoes with a similar colour bridesmaid dress and they were so so comfy! They come in wide fit too.

An embellished goldy/neutral bag would be lovely with it.

Then perhaps some drop earrings?

Thanks all - some great ideas. And yes I think you are right @WhiteNoiseMoreToys maybe I don't need to complicate things with a cover up as it is in a hotel - can just take a coat! Definitely feel a bit more sorted now, will look at some of these combinations.
