I'm attending a funeral next week and the family have said not to wear black. The last funeral I went to when the family had also said no black, lots of people ignored this and only me and one other person wore a colour. I don't know what to wear for this one as I haven't really got anything suitable, but I do have lots of black. What would you do?

Black with a lighter scarf, blouse, jacket? Navy blue, grey or brown? I hate being told not to wear black and or wear bright colours; I just don't feel comfortable even if the funeral is classed as a celebration of a life.

Maybe something in grey and take a bright scarf in your bag which you could put on if everyone is in colours
