Jacket or shawl with a dress that has straps?

Jackie, on September 10, 2019 at 12:54 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 4
I am thinking of buying a shawl or a jacket with my dress, due to being insecure with my arms. However, my dress already has straps and I'm nervous that adding a jacket or shawl would look weird. Has anyone done this or does anyone have any suggestions? Below are pics of my dress.

    Without even seeing a picture of your arms, I can tell you you’re beautiful and nobody else will be judging your arms. Especially when you have a gorgeous dress on like that. If you truly feel more comfortable with your arms covered, I would say a shawl. But I honestly think you’ll be so busy having a great time marrying the person you love that you won’t have time to be insecure cause you’ll be too happy 😊

    I think you would end up fussing with your shawl all night and it’d be a distraction from having fun, along the same lines as strapless girls pulling up their dresses all night if the dress isn’t tight enough. If you’ll feel more comfortable with your arms covered then a jacket would be your best bet but I’m sure yours arms are fine hun! We nitpick ourselves to death. I don’t like my arms either but thicker straps help a lot with upper arm insecurity.

    The Shawl would be more functional, allowing for easier movement. A Jacket would be a bit confining.

    Congratulations and 🍀‼️

    I’m sure you look beautiful in your dress. Don’t worry about others and be confident with yourself. You will be gorgeous!
