I’ve a wedding in May and need help styling this dress. Shoes/sandals( nothing too high) and bag help needed. Hat/fascinator or is that naff? Haven’t been to a wedding for about 5 years.

Suggestions welcome!

Not sure you need any help to be honest - you look amazing! you could go as you are. I guess maybe cream hat and bag?

Looks beautiful on you! I’d go for a simple gold necklace and some delicate gold sandals with a mid heel. Hair down and blow dried, no hat etc. have fun!

Either gold or silver accessories. Hat if it’s that sort of wedding. Defo no fascinator - soo old fashioned. I’d go lowish kitten heels if you don’t want too high.

What sort of hat?
They tend to drown me hence why I wondered fascinator.
I’ve a long blonde bob at the moment, what about an up do and a headband thing. I’m 60 by the way.

@daffydog, last time I needed a hat I went to John Lewis and tried a few on. I don’t think you can buy hats online as easily, you need to see how they suit you. I took a pic of the dress I was wearing on my phone for guidance too. They will have fascinators too, if you do prefer them (they are just so twee ‘at the races’ - I will get lynched for saying that now, lol).

A jewelled hair comb could look lovely. A bit of sparkle and interest but not as fussy as a feathery fascinator.

I’d buck the trend of metallics and go for a contrast, hot pink or lime green accessories. Lovely dress.

Lovely dress. Where is it from? I often wear bright pink with that shade of blue.
