Help me style these dresses

[ALittleBitAhAh]

I've got a wedding to attend next weekend. I'm between sizes and it has taken me a long time to find any dress options that I'm comfortable with. So these may not be the most stylish but I feel pretty good in them!

So it's between these (I have another wedding in June so may well keep both).

I need to find some shoes to wear. For the B&W dress I was thinking something bright to pop, like a pink or orange?

No idea for the pink dress. The shoes need to cover my feet ideally - but definitely my heels.

All ideas welcomed! Thank you 😊

Hopeful bump for the after work crowd 😊

If you want two outfits, my preference is for the Lipsy dress in both colour ways with the shoes worn by each model.

I actually think the black and white dress is the one. Personally I would go for quite neutral shoes e.g. tan sandals and then neutral coloured but boldly styled accessories e.g.

I defo want shoes to cover my feet!

I love these earrings thank you. I'm actually having my hair put up so I think these will work well ❤️

Being completely honest and possibly a little harsh, I'd avoid the M&S one, it's like something a Grandma would wear to bed. The other one is lovely and would look great for a summer wedding, I have a pair of trousers in the same colour/pattern and absolutely love them, usually pair with white or beige shoes

What colouring are you OP?

The M&S dress is quite hard to style. If you have very rich colouring you might make it work, but otherwise I'd go for the black and white dress. Much more fun.

For the Next dress I like bright pink shoes or possibly red

“Being completely honest and possibly a little harsh, I'd avoid the M&S one, it's like something a Grandma would wear to bed.”
Agreed.

Definetly the next one. I don't think the m and s one is very flattering at all. I also love tje idea of the shoes you linked too @ALittleBitAhAh and the gorgeous earings another poster linked to too

Agree with PPs - the Lipsy dress is lovely (M&S one quite frumpy). I would wear neutral shoes and dress it up with jewellery.

Thanks all - granny nightie had definitely crossed my mind 🤣 Will go black and white for next weekend and keep searching for the next wedding. Thank you 😊

The Next one purely because that's the one which would suit me so naturally go towards

I'd be really dull and were navy blue accessories.

I'm sure someone will be along with much more exciting options but just wanted to comment and say I really love that next dress

Thank you. I'm defo keeping the next one. Think I'm going to order the earrings too and maybe gold shoes?

I think the shoes are good - gold that's not too yellowy (as in the pic of the shoes) would work best, I think.
