Have a very plain black evening dress for an event in a few weeks. Wearing gold shoes and gold bag but the dress is so plain I need 'something'. I think a longish gold pendant would look nice but would like some suggestions please!

This is the dress. www.houseoffraser.co.uk/women/phase-eight-leila-one-shoulder-dress/d705934.pd#242144224,q=leila-one-shoulder

I'm shamelessly bumping to ask if anyone thinks this necklace would look ok with this dress? Have a thick gold cuff too and small diamond stud earrings.

I personally don’t think a necklace (of any style) would look good with that dress - the stand out feature is the asymmetric neckline and a necklace will detract from that. Less is more.

I think a gold cuff will look great though.

I did wonder about that Summer, I just didn't know if it was too plain? I do want it to be fairly understated but the group of women I will be with are the most glamorous bunch and I am definitely not! Do you think a gold cuff and small stud earrings would look ok?

I also have short hair so not the long flowing tresses of the model in the picture! Grin

No necklace!

I would wear long earrings with it, not studs. And maybe the cuff, yes.

Agreed, a necklace will fight with the neckline. Gorgeous earrings and a cuff and you’re sorted.

Yes yes to longer earrings. No necklace & gold cuff. 👌

Nice necklace weasel Smile

I'm thinking you're right about just the earrings, so any suggestions? Something bold? (But not heavy).

That dress is to die for op! 😍

How about a choker? It wont fight with the neckline at all.

I find that Daisy chakra jewellery is very bold in terms of design. And then the Chakra symbols are very different. But then I would go for chakras given my nickname.

Namaste!

Long sparkly earrings! Necklace not needed in my view.
