Help needed..

[Fritilleries]

I bought this dress in a mad, coffee fuelled spree. Fully intended to wear it and then...didn't. I am 5'8, and size 10. It fits but I'd like some advice on footwear to "toughen" it up a little. I have a 17 year anniversary meal coming up and would like to wear it. I did wonder if black tights and black ankle boots with 2 gold buttons up the side would work?

Attached..... duh! I'm 35, not that age matters! I'm that typical post baby woman who has emerged into a world where trainers reign supreme and everyone looks like they fell out the 90s.

It's navy, with gold stars. Bit invested in this.

Gah. Selfie attached. It swamps me, i think. Ughhhhh. Help!

I really like it and think it suits you. Will leave foot wear advice to others ( personally I would wear gold strappy sandals with chunky block heel but I have those already)

I think you look great in it.

Have you already got these be-goldened ankle boots? I'd wear it with chunky Chelsea boots. Next have some Dr Marten inspired ones.

Ok. I shall investigate. I do have said boots already.

These.

I love the dress and think the boots would look fab with it.

Tights or nay.

Where are the boots from?
Def those and a biker jacket

M&S. I have no biker jacket but we're eating indoors so that's OK.
