Accessories - Ideas, Please

[Barmaid]

I am thinking of wearing this to my wedding evening do

(I think after around 8 hours being trussed up in Chantilly lace and satin, I'll be wanting to kick back a bit).

It needs a petticoat. I need shoes. Dont need a bag.

What colour do you think I can put with it?

White? Red? Lavender? Purple? I'm quite taken with the idea of a deep purple as a contrast since a) that's a significant part of the colour scheme for the wedding and b) I've got a stunning set of deep purple amethysts I can wear with it but not sure purple will work.

Ladies (and gents) - your views, please!

Yes, the deepest pink in the dress...x

And will you be shaving your legs or plaiting them? :op

[anneasquith]

Is your wedding day the time to be sensible ? Cerise shoes .

[anneasquith]

Jth, why would she shave her legs ? She will have her 70 denier tights on ( black )

[jackthehat]

She might as well just comb her legs into some sort of order in that case, anne.....LoL

[jim360]

Wouldn't it just be cheaper to dye the leg hair black to give the illusion of thick tights?

[Barmaid]

Anne, Jack and Jim - I'm laughing too hard here. I shall show Mr BM this when he returns on Friday. If he thinks tights will be making an appearance, the wedding will be off!!!!

Beautiful dress.

[ummmm]

And if you need to take your shoes off you can store them in the basket on my zimmer frame :-)

How lovely her arm tattoos look with the dress.

[Barmaid]

Never mind her Spath, I have no tattoos so it's not an issue.

Anyway, for those of you who would like to see the main dress I shall ask someone to post a pic on the day. It's a bit special. I would post a pic now but Mr BM might see it and despite the fact it's been in the house for 3 months, he hasnt peaked.

[jackthehat]

Have you checked he hasn't tried it on....?

[Cloverjo]

When’s the wedding day?

[Barmaid]

lol, Jack, he may have done but I somehow doubt it. He's not got the assets to fill a certain part of it.

22 June Cloverjo.

These are nice https://www.johnlewis.com/carvela-lady-cut-out-stiletto-heel-court-shoes/fuchsia/p4059304 I kind of like the idea of picking out the green from the dress - it would have to be just the right shade of green though

[Barmaid]

Those are lovely 237. I may order them. Unfortunately, I need a wide fit with one foot because I have a very painful bunion. Although I may get away with those because they will soften quite quickly.

[anneasquith]

No tights BM. . Are you just going to wear legging under the dress ?

[Barmaid]

Lol, I thought I'd combine leggings with fleecy pyjamas for that "michelin man" look. (Heck if it's fine for Tescos, it's fine for a wedding!)

[Barmaid]

Seriously it will undoubtedly be cuban heeled seamed stockings.

*Starts taking bets on Sqad's appearance*

I dare say it won't take long for him to come.
