What shoes?

I have a wedding at the start of April. I am in Scotland so it could be 20 degrees on the day or snowing and freezing.

At the moment, my outfit is white trousers - before anyone gets frothy at the mouth, the bride has no issues at all here. My trousers are from Karen Millen. Similar to these but cropped. Waist band is the same etc. Got them years ago.

I also have a cobalt blue silk blouse with long sleeves, statement pearl costume necklace and bracelet and black suede heels and a black clutch.

IF it’s cold, wet, snowing etc I’d take a blazer with me but my blazers are navy and I don’t like black and navy together. I also don’t suit black close to my face so a black blazer is out.

I am looking on Vinted for shoes and a bag but I am not sure on colour. What would you suggest? Red, yellow, orange? Not sure what would really go with Cobalt blue. Thanks for helping.

I think your shoes need to be white or nude, possibly silver to go with the trousers. For the bag I'd stick to a neutral - silver, grey, nude, pewter tones - not matching with the shoes.

Instead of a dark blazer, perhaps with the white trousers, a very pale fine long length knit. That might look a bit more contemporary.

Thank you. Not sure about a cardi but definitely worth a try to see how the overall look would be. Thanks for responding.
