What colour accessories would you put with this navy dress?

[Florence282]

My friend is getting married next spring. I've ordered this dress. Would you go neutral or jazz it up with something brighter? I was thinking bright orange shoes and clutch but I want to look classy. Any thoughts? I'm 40 if that makes a difference.

This bag would look gorgeous with the dress if it's in your budget

I agree nude is very boring. I like the idea of the navy shoes and an orange bag best - or a punchy pink.

Green shoes, pea cock bag

Pink shoes, navy bag

I’ve got a pair of Carvella shoes called Kollude in a bright yellow. They go with a lot of things & look very good with navy.

Lovely dress!

I too would go with a brighter pop colour like bright pink, orange or coral.

Nude is classic but abit...meh.

I think whatever colour you decide, the bag and shoes match colour

So example orange clutch and orange shoes - new look are great for colourful shoes and Accessorize for bags

That's meant to say the shoes and bag should be same colour as each other. And the fascinatior if your doing that

I had a wedding once where I accessorised with orange / peach shoes bag and fascinatior

What do we think of these? They're red. I'm on a tight budget and they're only £3.50! Red though? Not sure for a spring wedding.

Very nice but make sure the bag is red too

Nice shoes but I'd definitely not do matching red bag.

My suggestion would be navy or nude shoes with a statement bag in jade green or hot pink bag.

Shoes are nice, I'd pair with a glitzy bag and a red fascinator

I think the problem with having a red bag is that the colour would have to be a dead match. I was thinking red nails, red lippy, navy box clutch and statement earrings.

I think id prefer pink though, I'll keep looking. Thanks for all the suggestions.

They are only £3.50 - buy them anyway, but personally I don't think red is the best choice with navy. But those shoes will go with lots of things.

Are these Coast then?

Yes they're coast.

I wouldn't match bag and shoes!

Fab dress!

Shoes are fantastic, so is the dress. Use any bag you or someone you know has that works. Enjoy yourself

I love this novelty bag and a nice example of red with navy blue

Other options

Or something like these

If it was me I would go red and blue with hair/hair pieces/hat/fascinator and red lipstick too.

Orange bag, navy shoes

Those shoes are gorgeous. The bag too.

I would go for red because l like to live life in colour. It may not be everyone’s taste though.

Went to a wedding recently wore a lovely navy dress with sparkly gold shoes and bag with a navy and gold fascinator to match 😁
