Style this dress oh keepers of the fashion

[Expedititition]

I have this dress. It's for an autumn wedding. I am a size 14 and will be wearing with tights.

I have these shoes

I have nothing else and no idea. Any thought? Please?

Anything has to be an improvement on how it's styled on the website! It's a lovely dress but they haven't exactly shown it to advantage. footless tights? is it 2004?

What about a metallic/glittery blazer and chunky bangles? Not sure about the shoes - I would actually stick within a colour palette of silver/grey with this because the lace detailing is so lovely - it seems a shame to detract attention away from it. For the same reason I would avoid necklaces.

I know what you mean about the styling. It actually fits me really nicely and isn't so sack like. It took me a while to see it on the website on that model styled like it is!

I actually love the shoes with the dress. I wouldn't add any more jewellery, or any other colour. I also think a blazer would look too structured with the dress and would go for a drapey grey cardigan or wrap type thing. I would wear my hair up simply done as the star of the show here is the dress itself.
Have fun

[Expedititition]

I'm so glad you like the dress! So you think just the shoes and no other pink anywhere else?

[baskingseals]

I would otherwise you get into matchy matchy territory. I think if the dress was plainer you might need a bit more, but it says enough on its own, IMHO. Have you thought about bags?

[Expedititition]

I possess no bags. Not one.

Nice dress. It would be lovely with a little faux fur jacket/capelet in pale grey. I'm not convinced by the shoes though, sorry.

Jacket

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

Pretty clutch Would be nice and vintage looking with the dress - a bit flapper-ish.

[Twinklestein]

Def not those shoes. I'd go with pewter, dark grey, sliver or black shoes.

Dune

Mint Velvet (bit boring)

Marabou shrug

[Twinklestein]

Silver beaded clutch

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

I like the 'boring' ones but ouch to the price!

[Expedititition]

Thank you so much everyone. I'm not sure if I want to cover the dress with a jacket. Do I need to? I don't get cold easily. October wedding. Church then hotel. I don't want to spend money and then not wear it!

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

Sleeveless in October a bit optimistic, I think.

[Expedititition]

Ok. I'm loving the fluff!

[Twinklestein]

No sleeves on October?

I would wear a shrug to the church and then take it off for the reception.

I love the Mint Velvet shoes, but I thought they might be a bit sober. Not so keen on the Dune ones but they're more fancy.

Better value suggestions:

20s vibe

peep toe

very cheap

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

I've posted these before, but if you are feeling rich I think they would be beautiful with your dress.

[Expedititition]

Thanks everyone. So so we think no jewellery?

[Twinklestein]

Definitely jewellery because it's quite a plain dress. Dark red would look nice with the grey, or a dark red clutch.
