Do you think this is okay?

I was looking at dresses and I’m not 100% on this one yet, but I thought it was cute for a black tie optional wedding I have in November. But it’s it too close to White? I don’t think it’s worth the risk but my mom says it’s not a big deal.

Nov. Black Tie Wedding in Miami

Hi all! I'm attending a family member's black tie wedding in November. It'll have a very conservative, Jewish ceremony, so I will be bringing a black shawl as well. Haven't gotten to shoes/accessories.

I'm having a hard time choosing, help?

  1. Too sparkley?

  2. Shown with and without matching gloves. Not sure if it's more "prom".

  3. Love the back, but I feel like the front ages me. Maybe this needs the right belt.

Need help finding formal dress for church wedding

Hello! I am hoping this group can help me find a dress because I am STRUGGLING!

About the wedding/dress code:

  • Ceremony at orthodox church, reception at local restaurant
  • Bride/groom are getting married at the church because of their parents. They are not very religious themselves, and don't go to church regularly. Both drink, go out and party, etc. They are fairly casual - they only reserved the church/restaurant and sent out invites a few weeks ago
  • Invite says "formal attire," but also "appropriate church wear" and "please no shorts or hats" and "shoulders are OK but no spaghetti straps"
  • Early november in northern CA

About me:

  • I'm 35 y/o, tall (5'11), 1 year postpartum and definitely still carrying extra weight (and insecure about it)
  • Since I am tall, most dresses that hit at the waist don't fit me right. Short dresses are usually TOO short, as are full length dresses (unless they come in tall sizes!), so thinking midi length might be best
  • I have broad shoulders so don't like anything with ruffles/padding/anything extra at the shoulders
  • I don't wear pink and I stay away from polka dots and most florals (they just look bad on me)
  • The groom is my partner's long time close friend

Budget under $150

I've been looking for days and not finding a good fit. Help?

October Wedding - Formal Attire

Do either of these work for a Saturday night wedding? It’s formal but not black tie. It’s in Lancaster PA. I purchased both dresses recently and spent more than I wanted to, but I absolutely can afford what I spent (and to be realistic, I think spending more than $40 on a single item of clothing is extravagant). I am also heavier than normal right now.

I don’t love either. I am concerned that the ruching on the first one may make me look pregnant in certain angles. The second one is super tight around the neck but I do like the attached fabric flaps in the back.

If I return them, then I need to either order something from Amazon or keep shopping and I dislike shopping.

Thanks in advance!

Sizing help: small or medium?

Reposting because I noticed the video was too cropped

I think I’m a schmedium 😭😭😭 the material is super soft and stretchy on this dress so honestly I’m comfortable in both, the medium feels a little too big and the small feels just a smidge small. The wedding is in a few days so no time for alterations…the first video is the small. The first is the small. What do you think?

Formal Wedding Attire

Hi everyone. I'm attending a wedding on October 17th at 4pm at a rustic wedding venue. The invitation states the dress code as formal.

I like both dresses, however I'm leaning more towards the green. (I will be wearing a strapless bra with either dress just didnt have one at the moment of photos) The only thing about the green is it feels slightly big & doesnt come in a size smaller & I cant find anything else like it.

Need opinions as I've not been to many weddings.

Thank you! :-)

Black tie wedding in Ireland in December

Will this dress be okay? I’m worried the flowers will look bad in the dead of winter. It’s a black tie in December in Ireland.
