Topic: Help for an outfit for a "casual" wedding

Hello, I really need your help.

A friend of mine is getting married and I need an outfit for the event, but nothing too dressy (and I don't wear dresses or skirts in general).

I have a beige blazer, brand new, this one

and I have this blouse too (it looks much better in person)

I just don't know what color the pants should be... Not beige 'cause I can't find the same exact color and material of the blazer.

Maybe white? sepia/brown?

Or maybe colorful pants and a white blouse?

I never dress "formal", I really don't have any idea!

I'd really appreciate your help!

for reference, I am 160cm tall, 50kg, light medium lenght brown hair, dark eyes, pale skin

white pants or colorful pants with white top

The other colors pants with the blazer and the top you already have would read to business like

but if you choose white (either with the top and colorful pants) or pants with what you already have

it would be really nice version of casual.

Re: Help for an outfit for a "casual" wedding

thank you for your replies glad

just got back from the stores, couldn't find anything that would look good with the jacket/top (or didn't have my size  hmm)

so I got this boucle blazer http://www.mirtilloechampagne.it/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/giacca-3995-hm.jpg

and black pants, plus a coral top (the boucle is in shades of coral, cream, dusty pink and black).

Have you tried wearing a sport coat over a vee neck t-shirt? That might be a compromise you could feel comfortable with.

Re: Help for an outfit for a "casual" wedding

The blouse and grey slacks are perfect. You really don't need the jacket. I would add a dressy clutch, and some dressy, chandelier earrings. I would wear strappy heels. But, no cage heels- too casual.

Is the blouse lined? If not, I would select a grey camisole to match the pants. The peach tones with the grey are complimentary.

I go to several wedding a year. And, I always get compliments on my outfits. I think this would be a good combo.

I like this blazer, I think you should wear brown/black pant with this blazer. You will rock.

The boucel jacket looks very stylish and your black pants and coral blouse should give you a very put together casual look. Enjoy the wedding!
