You don't have bingo wings by the way.

I don't have nice arms.

Its for a work ball in a castle and the dress code is black-tie/dressy as possible

I think a black shawl/wrap would look more elegant. Maybe a long silver necklace too.

I haven't got a wrap yet, but I thought silver to try and brighten it up a bit?

Woah!
I think a silver wrap might detract from those gorgeous shiny shoes!
I think hf's idea is better.
You'll look fab!

Less is more! Never over-accessorise. The key to chic is to remove items when you look in the mirror - 'tis true.

I love my shoes, more then the dress They came with a matching bag that I might use, but might not

Can someone help me find a nice black wrap then?

  1. please wear a different bra
  2. Will those shoes reflect your magic knickers?

omg @ the bra lol

I'd taken this pic on my way out the door to show a mate so please excuse the grey bra

and I don't think the shoes will reflect anything
I like the first one pannacotta,thanks

I prefer the first shrug as well the second one will be too bulky.

A silver shawl reminds me of bacofoil - think Xmas turkey Less is definitely more! Have fun!
