shoes & sweaters for anthro dresses	Permalink Closed

Hi I'm new but in need of some help. I bought this dress and also another anthro dress they don't have on the site anymore, but it was white strapless with kind of a blue paisley floral with a red sash I've had both of them for months but I'm drawing a blank when it comes with what to wear it with. Shoes? Some type of sweater/jacket? Jewelry? I'm looking for something somewhat dressy and I don't really want to spend more than $100 on each. TIA! __________________

Well for the dress shown in the pic black would be the safe route to go . I would go with a strapy open toe heel. Or you could do a silver shoe is the dress long like it shows? Also a wrap would look better than a sweater for the first dress as for the second dress with out seeing it that is kinda hard maybe a red shoe?

I think i know that 2nd dress you are talking about. I think Bex or Shopchicago posted about it a few months/weeks ago with the same questions. I think the general consensus was that a red shoe would look really cute with it. Maybe a peep toe or sling back shoe I think. For the first dress I think black would be a safe route but I also like the idea of that same red shoe with it or maybe a teal or other colored shoe. I don't think you need a shrug/cardi for that first dress. If you wanted something I'd go with black - boring but it won't take away from the dress. I got a really nice one from White House Black Market last sept but they have had them in stock ever since even now. Its a 3/4 sleeve black shrug that only comes in about an inch or two from the arm pits so I think that type of shape/style would do fine with this dress. Jewelry with that first dress might take away from the black v-neck. If you did wear something I would keep it simple like a thin silver/gold chain with a small item like the popular tiffany heart necklace or infinity sign necklace they have. __________________ My blog -> http://www.theblondediaries.com/ http://twitter.com/blondediaries
