Ideas Please

I'm wearing a dark navy knee length sleeveless dress to a wedding with a short multi-coloured flowery jacket. I need to wear tights as my legs are blue rather than white(!) so what colour do you suggest (pale? dark?) and what colour shoes? Wedding is in July. Oh, and any suggestions for a bag. All help appreciated.

I'd wear flesh colour tights with navy shoes and bag - you don't want to detract from the jacket.

^ sory - that was from me, not nibble, he's not into tights. :0(

Lol Boxy, I did wonder! ;)

thanks boxtops; patterned tights or just plain? I was wondering navy shoes might stick out at the end of pale legs, would flesh coloured shoes go OK? I notice Kate uses them a lot ...

flesh colour tights and a navy handbag or colour that goes with the colours on your jacket

[strawberryfields]

yes beige/or flesh colour shoes look great-they also make your legs appear longer, primark do some very good flesh colour tights, get glossy ones or the shaping ones. (without pattern or youll look too much with the flowery jacket) Navy shoes can make your pins look paler but if you choose a tan colour flesh tights theyll look ok-

Thank you strawberry. What are shaping tights?

[rockyracoon]

Definitely nude coloured tights, shoes-nude or navy would work well, but what about picking a colour out of the jacket and getting shoes and bag to match that.

You have many choices, take it easy! You tights can be black or nude, the two colors have different feelings. Nude colors for nude heels, and black tights for fresh colored shoes. How about a clutch? A navy handbag will match perfect with your dress. xoxo via little black dress Canada. Wish you have a nice day!
