'Formal' wedding - what does that mean to you?

Heather - My hair is a whole seperate dilemma! LOL. I am growing a full fringe out atm and I have no idea what I'm going to do with it so that it looks half decent. Usually I just pin it back. I'm going to talk to my hairdresser about it next weekend when I go in for a colour.

I am an over-dresser! Always! But I like to look fabulous, all the time. I feel comfortable when I look great, and if you feel comfortable, it doesn't matter if you're over or under dressed.

To me, formal wedding, Italian family is pretty formal. Chiffon is a nice fabric that handles formal well, so I say go for it. If you don't feel formal enough, go to town on your hair and makeup and dress it right up. It'll be great.

I would wear a an aqua printed satin maxi dress, with low brown heels, a gold glo-mesh clutch and beautiful bronzey make-up. I have worn it before and it's a show-stopper. Sigh. Since there are no weddings in my life in the next month, it will hang, glorious but idle in my wardrobe until year's end

Have fun. Hope you look fab!

Wow, that actually sounds very 'me'! But unfortunately, I am a bit of an introvert, tend to be a bit self conscious especially when I won't know a single person at this wedding.

Where did you get the dress??

I didn't know if a maxi dress would be classified as formal?

I made it It is the kind that would be classed as formal - some wouldn't. I guess it depends on the fabric. Because it's satin, it's definitely an evening dress. Although I have another cheap satin one that is easily dressed down to day time, and up to evening.

This is the dress I'm talking about. I'm size 12-14, check it out and if you think you'd fit it, happy to lend. I certainly won't get to wear it and would love to see someone feel fabulous in it.

ETA: I'm the one on the left. If you couldn't tell.
