Christening this weekend and no idea what to wear

As the title...

It's my nephews Christening this weekend and I'm Godmother and I have literally no idea what to wear. Usual church ceremony and then onto the Yacht club after.

I'm 33, 5 foot 4, a "booby" size 10 and what could be classed a "a bit alternative", ie. lots of tattoos and a few piercings. Freckly but tanned, hazel eyes and red hair.

I'm great at casual and mega dolled up for a night out but this in-between dressing throws me... I've seen you guys throw out loads of great suggestions when people are stuck for events and was hoping someone might be able to help?!

Jump suit, trousers and a nice top?

How about a Suit. Jumpsuit. Or nice flared trousers and top ?

I was also going to suggest a jumpsuit.

I've never done a jumpsuit before... sounds silly but how likely are you to end up with a camel toe situation?

And thank you!

I've worn a few jumpsuits and never had a camel toe situation. I'm slightly taller and rounder than you. I imagine more likely to be an issue with a very long torso,

I haven't been to a christening in a while but have usually gone for a dress and jacket. What sort of colours do you wear / not wear. Do you like prints / pattern?
