I want it to be reasonably smart - heels a must.

Thanks.

I think the blue would be a better co-ordinate than black.

I really like red and navy but suggested the brighter blue to contrast as the red is a bright/light red. I am no fashionista mind Wink

There is a similar coloured shrug/bolero cardi on the House of Fraser site if you wanted a cover up too.

Also, I think light grey would be good too:

But I am seeing defintely light grey and not a beigey taupe colour.

BTW, I think the dress is lovely!

Thanks for the suggestions. The dress is going to be for nights out that may stay casual or end up with me dancing the night away if the mood takes me. I like to have something that I don't feel over dressed in to just go out for a bite to eat but doesn't leave me feeling underdressed if I decide to make a night of it. Dyswim?

animal print stuff is interesting, I'd never have thought of that.
