How to accessorize this?
Permalink Closed


I'm going to a formal holiday party on Friday.  I purchased this dress, but I'm not sure if I should just stick w/ black shoes.  What kind/color of accessories.  The company is my hubby's new company that he hasn't even started w/ yet, so I want to look really pretty, but not too flashy (just in case):

Ooh, I definitely see earrings and a big cocktail ring. Or earrings and a cuff bracelet...that dress is lovely. So clean and modern looking!

I love white metals so I'd wear sterling, but you could do gold, too. I like the idea of a sleek, sculptural, artsy earring, maybe like some of the designers on Stars and Infinite Darkness create? Though I'll bet if you're pressed for time you could find something sculptural-ish at a Macy's or some such.

Here are some examples of what I mean by sculptural, and here's the web site:

I agree with the ladies - bronze shoes would look great.  If you didn't have bronze shoes, black peep toes would look fine too.

I have these in black and they are sooo beautiful. I want the bronze too.  They might work w/your dress. They are on zappos so you could get them quickly if needed.

I agree with the bronze shoes. I especially like atl's idea about sculptured jewelry. I'm all about sculptured jewelry lately. I think it looks so cool and sophisticated. A bronze or a mixture of metal colors would work - or you could with either silver or gold if you do black shoes.


Great dress!

Would these shoes look good w/ this dress? What about hose?  black?  It's pretty freakin' cold here in Boston.  Love the bronze heels, but haven't had luck finding them IRL and don't think I could get them here by Friday.
