Hi!

I'm new to the forum, I love fashion but stopped really putting the effort in with it when I gained weight a couple of years ago...however an occasion is coming up that I have to look halfway decent for!

I'm going to my boyfriend's mothers wedding in September, and found the perfect dress...but now I'm stuck on the accessories. Obviously, I want to look good because this will be the first time I'm meeting a lot of his family.

I'm wearing a mint green chiffon dress (closer to icey/white-green than strong mint) that's roughly knee length in the front and full length in the back. It has spaghetti straps with an extra "strap" (it's not really a strap, I just don't know what it's called) that hangs off my shoulders, like a cold-shoulder top only it's not a sleeve, just a strip of floaty material. Has an almost grecian vibe about it I'd say. Lovely and floaty, I'd post a picture if I could.

I'm struggling to figure out the best way to accessorize it. I love black with mint green, but I'm not sure if that would make me stand out too much. My other preferred accessory colours are white/cream or nude, but I've read that mint green often looks nice with other pastel colours, and since this is the first time my boyfriend will see my not only dressed up, but in something other than black/grey/a combination of the two, I'd like to nail the outfit if I can!

Please help me out, all suggestions and opinions are welcome because I'm clueless!

Ps, I'm a very light skin tone, (usually the palest foundation colour), I think my undertone is either cool or neutral, I have very dark brown hair (often mistaken for black) and brown eyes.
