I have these beauties and am planning to wear them to a party in November..

I am a 'stocky' size 14, 5' 8'', have solid legs, and even more solid shoulders.. so on tops I don't go for fussy or drapey as I just look too big. Simple lines and to be honest not too fussy in pattern/design.

Have thought about jeans and a lush top but would prefer high waisted jeans Smile

Skirts and dressed I tend to go for just above the knee so that my thighs don't cause offence!

I have minimal norkage that can be coaxed into something resembling 'assets' Grin

My hair will be vehr short and very blond.

Please and thank you very muchly Smile

I'd go clashy-clashy with yellow or green tights and a brown dress.

How about these for lush tops? They're posh-looking but not fussy.
These are some pale/neutral tops that will tone with the shoes:

This is a gorgeous vintage colour but a simple modern style.
Brighter colour
here.
Dress in the same silk as the second top here.
Your spectacular shoes would go brilliantly with a Forties-style dress, with padded shoulders and a spot of draping, maybe in oyster, maybe a bit of a sheen.
What about this or this? Or something silvery?
Another neutral here, if you want the shoes to be the star of the show. This is a fabulous colour, though.

I really like the tulip shift dress Smile The Ce Me one is gorgeous but too clingy for my undulations!

Tabio is a good sight.. I might have to bookmark that!

I got a gorgeous shift dress from a charity shop today that is begging for some nice tights.

That Phase Eight one is fabulous and very grown up Smile I love that.
The silvery one is gorgeous but I don't think I would get much wear out of it...

I also like the side tie Kaliko one the colour is very striking.
I like the Kaliko top as well and it would be different to anything I have worn before.
