I have bought this dress in blue for a Christmas party. It's lovely! But I need help with accessories - can anyone suggest anything to glitz it up, I'm not good at this sort of thing - normally live in jeans!!

Nice dress.

Neckline is tricky for a necklace. I'd suggest silver cuff or lots of bracelets and big earrings.

This is nice but ££££.

Maybe try and find something similar but cheaper?

Hi Merguez - thank you for the link - wow that's lovely but £££! I was thinking the same re: the accessories - just need to keep searching for that elusive stand-out piece that I can afford!

I can’t seem to find any on their website but if you have a matalan near you you should go in there and have a look at their accessories. Some are great and most for under £20. They quite often have a sale on some bits too and I go in and get earnings etc for £2/3 which is great if you only wear them once or twice for a particular outfit . I get complimented on my matalan jewellery a lot as I think it looks better than it is - I always just say thanks!

Great - thank you so much! I've spent enough on the dress as it is so definitely need to make some savings elsewhere
