What can I wear with this dress?

SayYuleNowSayWhipTheReindeer · 15/12/2011 19:38

Have just bought this dress but wondering what I should wear with it. It seems like it's quite short, so could I get away with some sort of leggings?

Also, do you think strappy heels or these ? I'm not a girly heel wearer usually.

Please help, O MN gurus. Thank you!

It's far too dressy for leggings.

Not sure what colour tights though.

I have a pair of gorgeous Gabor shoes that exact colour Grin

Footless tights-thick ones or black opaques and very high black shoes.

ThatsNotSantasBabyBelly · 15/12/2011 20:23

I think leggings could work, but would probably go for opaques.

I don't think those boots go, sorry.

maybe something like this?

tethersjinglebellend · 15/12/2011 20:46

Leggings and footless tights- NO.

Black opaques- yes.

I would wear neither strappy heels nor those boots, but something like this, although I'd be tempted by the leopard ones...

think these posts show that you could wear a variety of things! I can see all of teh above working actually depending on what look you want to go for. Nice dress!

SayYuleNowSayWhipTheReindeer · 15/12/2011 20:49

Ha ha at the leopard ones. Yes those first ones are nice tethers. So you definitely think black shoes as opposed to matching the colour of the dress, say something like these ?

NO

ThatsNotSantasBabyBelly · 15/12/2011 21:05

You could wear neutral shoes. I would say a court though or mary jane.

BroomBuBuBum · 15/12/2011 21:08

I would go with leggings and peep toe black shoes Grin

SayYuleNowSayWhipTheReindeer · 15/12/2011 21:10

Santas - those leggings are awesome, no? They also have a rather fetching matching fur coat.

And back to reality..... I quite like these AIBU?

Broom - black leggings?

BroomBuBuBum · 15/12/2011 21:32

Yep black leggings. Or maybe even nude shoes.

SayYuleNowSayWhipTheReindeer · 16/12/2011 10:56

So black or nude shoes? I'm soooooo confused.....

OP posts:

For me...

Black leggings and black peep toe
Opaques and black courts
Bare legs/nude tights nude shoes
