Good evening... have wedding to go to at the end of the month, and had my heart set on this dress and coat combo. Have just been online to order, and they're all sold out [sob].

Am a size 16, classic pear shape. Have been surfing without success - any suggestions gratefully received.

I'm not a massive fan of Boden, but I have to say that outfit would be great for a winter wedding.

Have you tried White Stuff?

NotaStepfordWife · 08/11/2009 20:23

Yes, no joy there. And monsoon. And Coast. And Hobbs. Nothing nothing nothing.

Thanks anyway

I quite like that too-the idea at least. I have a wedding in 3 weeks too and am stumped. What kind of shoes are right for a winter wedding? Maybe I should find an outfit first.... If I come across anything will post a link!

Well, at the risk of looking like a complete bodenite (I'm truly not!), I was going to go for these shoes in purple. But yes, agree need to find outfit first - going in just shoes isn't an option

Walked through M&S today and saw lots of velvet in the Autograph/Limited Collection area. Also saw devore velvet tunic in Zara which was lovely.

Velvet is great for winter dressing up.

this purple coat
with this dress

NotaStepfordWife · 09/11/2009 13:58

Oooh - the dress is good in purple... could perhaps find black velvet coat to go with it?

Will hunt some more.

Thank you

I would go for this or this teamed with something like this

NotaStepfordWife · 10/11/2009 17:31

Tethersend... you read my mind - I found both those dresses online last night and will be heading into Bath on thursday to try them on

Like the shrug too... will hunt for some killer heels to go with it if it all looks ok.

Thank you.
