    Whatever you feel comfortable in!

    Ours was in February and was bloody cold... so jeans, brown boots and brown leather jacket for me!!!

    We had an encore shoot too which was much warmer so then had a yellow chiffon top, jeans and wedges!

    I haven't had mine yet, but this is my outfit for our engagement shoot from Monsoon, and the SATC jewellery from our very own Lynsey!

    I would also think about where you are going and the colours of the location.

    Our engagement shoot was in the grounds of our church with lots of old brick walls so the brown leather tied in nicely...

    Our encore shoot was by the seaside!

    I love that skirt from Monsoon, and have been waiting months for it to come in, but havn't seen it in the shop yet, or on their website to purchase. The skirt on it's own is a whopping 180.00,, but I think it would be a fab piece to have. Where did you find it? I have been on the website every week looking for it to be listed. I am a sucker for long skirts. I have their pondicherry in nearly every colour, lol.

    What I tell my clients about what to wear,, we do alot of vintage themed engagement shoots, and the couples tend to dress accordingly with that in mind,, but for a more simple session, I say to try not to clash in colours, try not to wear things that are not too busy (patterns). Rule of thumb, smart casual. Have fun with it, I have had girls in 1950's style, and it's such fun to have a specfic theme in mind for inspiration. I think it's best to avoid all white, as that makes it too similar to the wedding day photos. It's nice to do something that stands out from the wedding day.

    I ordered it online a few weeks ago. Just did a search and I can't see it on the website anymore. Maybe give the shop a ring to check?

    This is really funny because we have ours on Sunday and up until just now (when I received an email from him) I thought we were going just to talk through the day, but he has just emailed us asking us to wear something we are comfortable in and similar colours?!?!? odd.... I didn't even know this was the norm! I am feeling really uncomfortable out it! but will probably wear a summery dress and pumps or something - he did say try to avoid white and logo's ........
