hmm - maybe a tan/khaki pencil skirt with a light pink or white button down blouse tucked in and a skinny leather belt in maybe pink or pale yellow (if wearing a white blouse; i wouldn't do a yellow belt with a pink blouse or it might look too easter-egg-ey).  you could also pair it with a solid shirtdress in khaki (or any of the colors of the shoes) and add a cute belt or wear them with a nice solid colored wrap dress and add accessories (i.e. a long neckalce).  hth a little!

Love your ideas - great

 

They look fancy to me, so I'd save them for dresses - especially neutrals like gray, tan/taupe, olive, navy maybe, mustard maybe (since it looks like there's gold in the pattern). I like the suggestion of spicing that up with jewelry.

LOVE!!! Thanks everyone for your ideas.  I already have the skirt in mind.

To add to the skirt/skinny belt idea - i think that a skinny wrap around belt looks particularly good with a pencil skirt.  if you haven't seen them - they are a super long version of a skinny belt that wraps around twice.  j crew had a version that is a melon/mint color - i have it and it works great with a lot of outfits.  i'm not sure  that color would work (they're probably oos now anyway b/c it was on sale) and they're kind of hard to find but it's just something to think about.  if you see one, try it!
