Pattern mixing is all the rage right now, so you are definitely on trend. I am a bit more conservative, so this is approaching my tolerance limit for myself. Each of these pieces is gorgeous on its own, that's for sure, and they look wonderful on you. So the real question is: are you comfortable, even happy with the combination? Some people will love it, and some won't. If that thought makes you uncomfortable, you should definitely cut out at least one of these in favour of a solid colour, or perhaps a subdued tone on tone.</p> <p>You are breaking the rules the conservative people adhere to and following the rules the trendy people adhere to. Where are you most comfortable? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-guest-advice#post-717583 Mon, 10 Sep 2012 22:18:09 +0000 Mander 717583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In theory it seems like it should be too much, but I kind of like having all the florals repeat like that. I think that it's balanced by the fact that the dress is mostly solid. But I'd skip the hat/fascinator and wear either simple dangly earrings (hoops?) or a delicate necklace, myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-guest-advice#post-717573 Mon, 10 Sep 2012 22:08:07 +0000 Anonymous 717573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up! I think it looks great. The florals in those colors seem appropriate for autumn. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-guest-advice#post-717550 Mon, 10 Sep 2012 21:47:19 +0000 Gill 717550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's a pic of me in full outfit ...</p> <p><a href="http://i45.tinypic.com/2q99kyg.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i45.tinypic.com/2q99kyg.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-guest-advice#post-716439 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 19:31:04 +0000 MsMary 716439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Certainly a solid bag would be a safer choice. But I am a rebel rebel and I might well go all floral! Would love to see a photo of it all together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-guest-advice#post-716435 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 19:28:29 +0000 jayne 716435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>the shoes and dress will be just the right amount of floral repeat! That will look great. How about a sparkly bag? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-guest-advice#post-716396 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 17:36:03 +0000 mirrorlight 716396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Kristin that swapping out the clutch (or actually shoes would be my first preference) for something solid might be better... it's a pretty dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-guest-advice#post-716381 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 17:08:33 +0000 Kristin L 716381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think a solid clutch would work better. Do you have one that is a similar color to the florals in your shoes or dress top? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-guest-advice#post-716342 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 16:25:49 +0000 Gill 716342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi folks,</p> <p>I'm attending my step son's wedding next Saturday and am thinking of wearing this dress which I bought a couple of years ago and have never worn ...<br /> <a href="http://i45.tinypic.com/1zbdxsz.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i45.tinypic.com/1zbdxsz.jpg</a></p> <p>with these Nine West shoes<br /> <a href="http://i49.tinypic.com/16gy72s.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i49.tinypic.com/16gy72s.jpg</a></p> <p>I also have this matching bag<br /> <a href="http://i50.tinypic.com/33xk552.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i50.tinypic.com/33xk552.jpg</a></p> <p>but thought it might all be a bit too many florals - especially as the bag will be near the top.</p> <p>What do you think ... yay or nay</p> <p>Would a navy clutch &amp; fascinator/hat be a better idea? Other suggestions more than welcome.</p> <p>Thanks<br /> Gill</p> <p>PS Not sure how to include images so hope these link ok<br /> PPS I'm a US size 6 and in my 40s with red hair </p>
