I bought this the other day for work:

www.brora.co.uk/Product/Product.aspx?WebShopCodeStr=A1&WebSegmentCodeStr=S2&WebCategoryCodeStr=CE&StyleCodeStr=DD130&PT=1&PC=A1-S2-CE

but have no idea what I should wear with it. I have no idea about style at all, should I wear black tights with it? Nude tights? Boots? Shoes? Argh please help! Smile

Black or grey opaques and boots or shoes would be nice. Which colour did you get? Looks like a bargain!

Was definitely a bargain I got two! One in purple and one in navy.

I've never understand shoes really, do you match colour to your dress or is that a total no no?

Are nude tights a no no these days?

Brown boots (cowboy or biker style flats for casual, block heel riding boot style for smart) and opaque or patterned tights (cable or something not crazy patterns) in winter

Nice wedge heeled sandals in summer tan for everyday bright for smart.

Puffin - thank you for linking to that dress. It's lovely. I have just bought the purple but am now wishing I'd gone for the French Navy.

I'll wear it with black tights and black ballerina pumps.

I would have said brown boots and black opaques for an every day look.

Puffinsaresmall · 13/05/2012 20:35

FauxFox - love both those shoes, this is going to cost me a fortune Grin

Yama - the dress is lovely, really nice material, but I warn you it is quite low cut, on me at least. I'm going to wear a little top underneath it.

Are the sizes fairly typical or bigger/ smaller than normal?

Gorgeous dress - get a scarf like that too!
Wear tights or bare legs, the dress is a good length, perhaps a cami beneath it or high necked lace bra top to avoid fabric bunching at waist.

Sleek mid heels, black, brown leather. Tan basket weave style flats, summer sandals (flat, not gladiator).

Or boots, as mentioned above.

And def get that scarf!
