Yay! It's another What To Wear At Weddings thread!

[Slouchy]

Excpet this one is not asking you all to madly google Coast cos I have NIL money.

I have a wdding on sat. It's dh's cousin. I have nothing especially suitable (that fits).

Can I wear black city shorts d'y'think? With a jade jacket, cream top and killer heels? Or are city shorts Not Done for weddings yet?

Cheers all

ok, it really is a no then....

yes spose so
what are they goign to do
shove oyu out

Well no, but they are as a family keen on the Done Thing - always black for funerals, hats for church weddings etc.
Would you do it, cod? I'm guessing you are cod - who is maria miller anyway? too shadowy for me!

sh ei s on a live chat

I think a smart balck skirt (long ) would be better
black + shorts = no no imo

Hmmm. It's a no then. Bum.

I went to a wedding where a guest wore white city shorts and jade top. she looked fab. (the bride was not in white, so was safe)

I thik you may get away with it, only the shorts are black. How old are you?

How old am I? 35. My knees haven't gone yet, if that's why you're asking!!

well, I was thinking that if you were in your early 20s or younger you maight get away with it. But, if you feel good in them then go for it, I say, am though.

city shorts for wedding - v Kate Moss!!!!

Knock 'em dead Slouchy you queen of cool you!!!

Funnily enough, that's exactly what I look like....

Hey Slouchy... seriously... I saw a wedding party walking towards my local registrar office all head to toe in coast... it looked ok but no wow factor. I think your shorts will be v cool and wow in a good way... I have a wedding to go to in April I would brave the short thing too - but brrrrr those April winds!!!!

not that keen on black in july

surely there is something you can find/borrow? loads of sales are on...

I checked with the mners on "come talk weddings" thread - they all said go for the shorts too!!!! Slouchy - we want photos!!!! Unless, perhaps you have an ok or hello deal already - don't forget we know you now!!! You cool celeb!

go to HM buy some cheap knee length black short and pair it with gold gladiator sandels and a simple summer vest.

As requested, pics on profile.

V positive response - and I felt great. Really practical as well, easy when bending down with kids and cool for dancing. none of that constant top-hoiking that the strapless dress wearers were doing.

verdict: city shorts at weddings are fab.

fab!
