yum

How would you accessorise this? It's for a formal Christmas dinner. I am 6ft size 10 but with chunky thighs.

Do you need to wear tights? I'd accessorise it differently depending on whether it was tights or bare legs.

anyone got any ideas on jewellery? I quite like chunky pearls but will they go with this?

I wouldn't wear a necklace with it - but armfuls of chunky bangles with the lovely bracelet sleeves.

Silver ones if you're wearing grey tights? What about purple accessories as well - a lovely Christmassy rich purple? And silver sandals?

About the grey tights - what ones are good for evening? I only see really wooly grey tights and they are not good for this look.....
