Wedges, or flats, I think, to cope with the flooring issues.

Um - what sort of shape are you? Norks/no norks? Can you do sleeveless? Long skirt or knee length better? And budget?

Lol @ arty

What do arty people wear then?

ChanJackieTylerNo · 05/07/2008 16:29

(assuming it's not a misprint for 'arsy', ie a big bum - sorry mazzystar, I'm sure your bum is lovely)

lazarou · 05/07/2008 16:31

anything take your fancy here?

ChanJackieTylerNo · 05/07/2008 16:32

This is beautiful. But depends whether you can do halterneck.
I love this too but it may be too much cream for a wedding, too wedding dress-like?

ChanJackieTylerNo · 05/07/2008 16:35

Maxi dress - possibly with embellished flat sandals?
Again cream, but beautiful.
More floral
Possibly, with wedges?

mazzystar · 05/07/2008 16:42

i am arsey
in more ways than one
my bum is far from lovely
but arty as in maybe a bit more edgy than dressy

wedges is a good idea
will take wellies as back up
i quite like the maxi dress idea
but am scared of looking like wearing a nightie

maxi dress and little shrug type thing.loads in per una at the mo. pretty sandals and accesories.

what mazzy has neglected to share with you is her peachy smooth skin, glossy smooth hair and fabola cleavage

mazzystar · 05/07/2008 16:53

How about a good strapless bra? If you're a D cup or above, you could go to Bravissimo. Or if you have a good independent bra shop around try them?

ChanJackieTylerNo · 05/07/2008 17:09

Hmm - is this too dark?
Lovely colours, but not sure straps are enough to cover bra straps.
This is nice, if you fancy something a bit shorter.
Nice shape but again thing straps.

mazzystar · 05/07/2008 18:25

like this but too smart/cityish for occasion?
