I am off to a lovely posh wedding this summer, and would love to wear something exotic

Any suggestions?Thanks!

this any good?

Poppity · 07/07/2009 17:02

I like that, what about this? jacket

I still want the jumpsuit really though....

I love this Zac Posen one

Quite expensive though, but half price .

Countess, as much as I like jumpsuits, I'm not sure about a tapered leg. It's lovely other than that, I'm going to look at their others

Lol Flo, I can't order it just yet anyway, but I might do just that next week

I was hankering after a lola rose necklace which would look fab with it too, so here's hoping it goes in the sale!

I showed DH the jumpsuit and he loves it too, yippee! Just need to wait for payday now....

Also, it has struck me- what jacket could I wear with it?
I don't want black really do I? Something bright?
Or white?
Cardigan, jacket, shrug or wrap?
Oh dear.....

Yippee I can only imagine a wrap working with that neckline and the bow at the neck.

Ok, have sent for the jumpsuit.

I will let you know....

I am hoping it'll go with my white Chie Mihara shoes, and chunky white bangle/ring. But what colour wrap would go? I don't think white would be right at a wedding.

I was thinking a sea green/turquoise(I do have some shoes this colour too if you think it should all match?), but any better suggestions? Plain or patterned? Oh, I'm rubbish at decisions, come and make some more for me

Ooh, fingers crossed.

I think that only a good rummage at Accessorise will do it. I would be tempted to keep everything quite muted and very classy rather than going for a big contrast. Perhaps a cream or grey wrap with a silver thread running through it?

Poppity · 09/07/2009 13:16

Yes, I thought that too, just thought it might not be summery enough, so glad you think that would be ok!

You are blonde and you will have your arms and back on display, so I don't think that it will look 'un-summery'. You'll certainly stand out at the wedding, but in a good way!

Well, it's arrived, and it is FABULOUS,

there's a small but- the stitching is coming undone in a couple of places, which is a bit disappointing given the price. I'm exchanging it for another though, it's too glorious to let go!

Thanks guys
