Hello, can you help, bought a gorgeous dress for a wedding i am going to. It is made by Nougat and is a limey olivy satin slip dress with a layer of chocolate coloured lace on top. I would prefer green (same green) satin shoes and bag but could be persuaded to go for brown. I also need a green wrap. Any ideas on where to look? I have tried Browns, Karen Millen, Coast, L K Bennett and Hobbs. Thank you!!

Hi Maggiesmama

Sorry, should have said, also been to Accesorise but all the greens were too deep.

Budgetwise - Up to £150 for them both?

Will have a look in R&B thanks. Want heels though, the higher the better!

Thank you both for your thoughts (and for your very kind offer Maggiesmama . Didn't see any green satin heels in LK that would go but did see some nice suede ones but no matching bag and so they are ruled out really. Light coloured suede is not the best at this time of year I suppose.

Hi Anniemac (that's my sil's name!) I think you are right about the chocolate being much easier to match than green. I think I'll have to turn my thoughts to chocolate accessories! The wedding is in 2 weeks so I don't have time really to look into dying things, good idea though.

Any great chocolate bags and shoes out there? didn't see many on my hunt to date.

How about one of those online pashmina sites that do them in every colour for a wrap? Tie rack?

That's a great site, lovely pashminas! Thank you
