Here I am at a recent wedding, in blue and white
How I do LOVE a wedding, and I don't need to know the bride, groom, or any of the family to have a good time. No, I get to go as a Wife of the Bell Ringer, which is Gorgeous Husband. He makes the noise and rings the bells, I flash the hat! |
I am wearing a wonderful blue dress from the David Emanuel collection for the fashion chain Bonmarche, along with the cream collarless coat, also from the same collection. I was fortunate enough to have the lovely folks representing Bonmarche ask me if I would model some of their clothes. Be still, my foolish heart! Would I? Would I ever!! As you can see, the mock wrap blue dress is a great dress for weddings, or a dinner out. It's dressy, without being so dressy that it is a one-occasion dress. And at £22, it's great value, especially as being jersey, it doesn't wrinkle. The cream collarless coat is also a good buy at £45. The label says "machine washable" which is good, as I am a mucky pup, but I'm not sure I will be brave enough to just chuck it in the machine! (I am so timid sometimes!) I found the neck to be a bit large on me, but with the addition of a cream scarf, I felt ever so chic. The blue hat and blue leather gloves were from my existing wardrobe, otherwise known as the Endless Stash. I just saw in the fashion section of
i newspaper called "Hot Fuzz" that items like my blue fuzzy handbag are the very latest in chic. Well, there it is! I was on the cutting edge before I realized I was on the cutting edge. No way my fuzzy handbag cost £150 like the one in the paper though.

Rosemary has such style and panache! I will definitely be looking at that gorgeous blue wrap dress. Right up my street.
That cobalt blue is wonderful on you , you look ravishing! xxx
I love the blue white combination and Endless Stash provides the perfect pieces to complete this stunning ensemble. Glorious wedding outfit, Rosemary!
You look so, so lovely. Very stylish and elegant. I cannot believe your dress and coat were this price. If you had added a 0 or two I would have believed it as well.

Love your blog Rosemary .. and absolutely covet the dress. That blue is spectacular.
What a beautiful outfit for a wedding! I love the white coat with the blue. I wish Americans wore more hats, everyone looks so festive in hats in your pictures.
