Fashion Opinions (PIP)

Our engagement party is this weekend and this is what I was thinking about wearing. Thoughts?

FI says I should either find different shoes or find a shirt that "matches". What do you think?

Re: Fashion Opinions (PIP)

  • I love the shoes!!! 

    I think you could use a dressier top since it is an engagement party for YOU, the white seems kind of plain jane to me... but it is a cute top!  I just think something a little brighter or festive would be better for that type of gathering.

  • I like the whole outfit.
  • I love the pants and shoes, but I agree with erin in that the shirt could be dressier. It kind of looks like a regular T-shirt in the first pic (I think because it's white, if it were a different color it would be different).
  • Where is the party being hosted? 

    I would probably wear a dress (or skirt) regardless of where it is, but I would definitely wear a dress if it is in a restaurant/banquet room.  I love the shoes though.  I think something like either of these would look good with the shoes.

    Dress 1 -short sleeves     Dress 2 - 3/4 sleeves

    It's a very causal affair. Everyone (most likely including the groom) will be in jeans. It's at a local rotary building and we're having BBQ, so nothing fancy.

    Ideally I would wear a springy dress, but I had an issue with my skin in the fall, so they are severely scarred and I am very self-conscious about it. As cute as it is, I haven't ventured to hose/tights.

    ETA: I love the dresses in the links!

  • I agree with Erin. Considering it's your party, you need a dressier shirt. I love the shoes!

  • Totally understandable.  I am really liking blouses lately so I think something like these would be cute.

    Blouse 1 - black and white     Blouse 2 -  bright colors

  • I actually like it. Maybe you can add a long-length 'statement' necklace that is red to make it more cohesive?
