how would you accessorise this dress?

Bought this dress for a black tie do...how would you accessorise in terms of jewellry, hair etc (pic on my profile of me, but basically I have long-ish curly dark hair)

I always wear my hair down (to hide my fat face!) But thinking dress might look better with an up do of some sort?...

Ooh that's lovely! I would keep it very simple, a statement necklace, like something from the Lulu Frost collection, and definitely an up-do.

Thanks, it's a lot plainer than my usual style, hence why I am a bit lost on accessories (I never wear necklaces normally - will google Lulu Frost!)

From the picture it looks as though the neckline is high, in which case I would go for a pair of statement earrings and quite a simple but chunky cuff. Absolutely agree that an updo would work well.
Gorgeous dress!

The neckline is low at the front but high at the back as it covers my shoulders (probably not explaining it well!). I think a pendant would look good with it.

Can anyone suggest a good way to put my hair up?

I think a necklace will look messy with the neck detail in the dress. The neckline is lovely as it is! I'd personally go for studs, I think even drop earrings would be too much, an up do and something on the wrist!
