I think I'd go for cream or nude shoes and clutch and a long dangly necklace of some kind

Nude or gold heels.
I'd go for gold jewellery - earrings and bracelets. There's so much going on around the neck area that there's no need for a necklace.
And a clutch bag.

Thanks for the suggestions, I was thinking bangle and earrings but not necklace, sorry onelittlelady but I agree with vibbe that there is enough going on around neckline.

Model is 5ft 10in but I'm 2 inches shorter so think dress length will look okay, are gold shoes not too naff? Hmmmm?

Thanks for clutch bag idea, what colour though? To match shoes or not?
Lots of questions.... Flowers

I would go for a big chunky gold bangle and earrings only, no necklace and some gold sandals with a neutral coloured clutch.

A pair of golden heeled sandals or peep-toes can look very nice - but it depends on the quality. I personally wouldn't mind these but they aren't exactly cheap...

You might get more use out of a pair of nude heels than golden ones.

For bag, the old rule is to match shoes and bag.
Today everything's allowed, so you could match the bag to the jewellery or to your nail polish or to the colour of the dress or shoes naturally. Or go for a contrasting colour.

I would love those shoes vibbe but sadly they are out of my league.

I was thinking a really dark almost black burgundy for nails, too much?
