I am planning on wearing the attached dress to my friend's wedding. It will be a big do as they are loaded and I want to look my best. The dress is white with blue detail. I'm planning on wearing a blue pashmina over it for the service. I also have a nice pearl choker. Will it be ok, or not?

Please tell us more about the wedding. Time of year, time of day, level of formality, etc.

Dear Wearing White,

While wearing white to a wedding is no longer a faux pas, wearing a dress that could be a wedding dress is. This is too close to a style that a bride could wear. Plus, it is too formal for daytime. A nice cocktail dress would fit the day into night event.

Best wishes,
