What to wear with black velvet shift dress for party

4 replies

I can’t afford to buy a new dress for my work party. Going to wear an Oasis black velvet shift style dress I’ve only worn once but how can I make it look less plain?

I have shoes but what tights should I buy? Bare legs not an option.

What about jewellery? I hardly own any as I’m very sensitive to it and have bought costume type before and it brings me out in a rash.

I am not used to going out much anymore so would love a bit of help please!

You need a big fun necklace. Or large earrings
Nude tights.
Black shoes or a color to go with jewellery

Thank you Dolly any suggestions for the sort of necklace or where to buy? I’m running out of time, party is Friday!

Depends what the neckline is like. You can get chunky necklaces that tie at the back with ribbon if you don't like cheap metal on your neck

Might be helpful to think what kind of mood are you in / what look do you want to go for
