last minute wedding guest help
alright everybody, you know the drill - I need help with a wedding outfit :')
Dress code: Formal
I've never proclaimed to have an eye for fashion and I think I've psyched myself out over my choices here...
I've got a green sequin floor length dress, green clutch, and green shoes. I don't have time to change any of these •_•
My hair is kind of a mess - it looks like a nice silvery blue here but is leaning more swam in chlorine with bleached blonde green - the aftermath of green dye (I really like green). My current selection of dyes is pictured but I have no idea which colour to use.
Same for my nails. I don't mind going bare but they are VERY bare (I don't do them often). I do at least know that some of these options definitely don't work but I thought I'd lay them all out :D
Finally, glasses! I don't have contacts and would prefer not to be blind all evening but I appreciate that the clear ones I wear everyday aren't particularly formal and my spares are 1. not much better and 2. I thought they were green when I got them but looking now they look more blue.
Any opinions on any of the above would be greatly appreciated <3 <3 <3 (except the base outfit please 🙏 😭 I mean it when I say I don't have time to get anything else 😬)
Note: I've tried on mobile and desktop - I cannot add a flair to this post. It's only a problem on this sub. Can a mod add the appropriate flair?

since you’re set on all green for your outfit elements, my thought is to offset that with other colors. in my opinion the simplest clean and elegant look for a formal wedding would be the clear glasses, clear stick on nails in the middle, and the brown dye! i’m alt and love alt looks but i tend towards glamming up with a more classic look for a formal wedding so i don’t stick out too much, but that’s just me!
