Sorry, this is sighty unrelated to my wedding, but wedding topic non the less!
I'm trying to find a maxi dress for my brothers wedding. I hate my legs so it has to be floor length. I've trawled the internet and can't find much. It's either too bridesmaidy or looks like an evening gown.
I found these two from the same website. My H2B says the first looks too evening. Which do I go for?
I know Bev, I love it but H2B put me off saying to dressy :( I dont want people to think I'm showy haha!
Thats a good idea as well Sarah, its just the bling on the front thats the prob xx

I like the second one because it'd be easier to dress down for the day & up for the evening do.

Yeah, it tricky one because I think that second one is more apt for wedding day guest but the first is such a lovely shape x
CommentAuthorBev
You can never be too dressy :) team it with a nice shawl to dress it down slightly for the day and keep your accessories to a minimum xx
CommentAuthor*Claire*
I like your style Bev! I'm just worried that peope will say 'ooh look at her' lol I usually like to blend in! x
CommentAuthorBev
Don't worry about other people's opinions. I'm sure other people will make the effort to dress up, too xx

It's a wedding you should look dresed up. my wedding invites are going to state formal dress becuase i am sick of going to weddings and seeing girls turn up ina dress they would wear to the dancing. Get blingy girl and look fab xx

I'm torn but think dress 2 has the slight edge.
Personally I think you can go dressier. It's your brother's wedding so you're allowed to be more glam than the rest of the guests.
My sister and I tend to wear C0@st dresses to our cousin's weddings and we can be extra glam because we're family. xx

I think they are both gorgeous and totally suitable for the wedding...the only things I'd tend to steer clear of at weddings are the satiny style corset backs which a lot of people do use as bm dresses...
Could you check with the bride first? I'm sure with the pattern it won't qualify as a 'white' dress but I've heard some people can be funny about it.
But I really wouldn't mind someone wearing a lovely dress like that to a wedding xx

Thaks Dreamland and Laura, I feel more confident about both the dresses now. I'm going to order the first one, see what it's like, then I can always return and get the second! xx
