Help me find something feminine/elegant to wear to a March wedding

[Heated]

Going to a church wedding in March & would love to wear something feminine for a change - I do casual really well!

I'm a size 12 on a good day, dark haired and pale skinned but the problem is I don't have the nicest legs; I've got a scar /indent part way down on my leg so I always feel safer in trousers - can trousers be sexy? I can wear skirts but only with long boots or thicker tights.

Any ideas please ladies?

Go to Coast and get them to sell you something. xxx

no because then eveyone else will ahev it on
march is a killer - i did it last year - it may well be COLD trouser suti is good
think carefully abotu colours

Not my friends - we think Coast is posh. Went to a wedding where everyone wore jeans. Am obv not posh enough for mumsnet.

Am watching as I also have a March wedding to go to.

Thanks, have looked at Coast - good for a summer wedding; everyone seemed to be wearing strapless Coast dresses at a wedding I went to last year. But wedding is in March brrr - anywhere else I could also look?

Phase Eight and Fenn Wright & Manson have some nice things - inc jackets/cardigans suitable for a March wedding (am going to one too). Agree Coast is too summery.

Admit the Fenn Wright & Manson looks lovely, thanks. There's a dress that looks a potential and might even get some wear out if it after the wedding.

Do you think I could get away with wearing long boots with a dress to a wedding or is that a definite no no?

Post a link to the potential dress! There's even more stuff in store at FW&M, the website has a limited selection. I thought it was all quite wearable for afterwards too.

I think boots are OK, but depends on the colour - all black might not work, maybe a bit too severe, but all chocolate brown or grey cd be very wintry and elegant.

Lovely dress LittleLapin - but in black, a no no for a wedding? The plum sounds lovely. Need to find something like you describe. Good website too.

MrsChop, can't make it link properly but it's at www.fennwrightmanson.com/ last one on page 5, city scape, but having 2nd thought, think actually it's better for work than a wedding and maybe too dark.

But you can see why I need help!

cod is right
trous suit

or fabulous coat (Phase eight very good. Or LK Bennet)

LOL!! Must admit there is a bit of a mental stumbling block there! But the style is lovely as are some of the colours.

Like your previous idea of dressing up what I know see to be a NAVY dress. It's that bit I'm really bad at, especially shoes.

But it looks like a wrap dress might be the way to go

Making notes!

What colour trouser suit for a wedding? And do I stop it looking like I'm off to work?

Going to trundle off now to see fab coats on LKBennett website.

Thanks ladies xx
