I've got a black, Karen Millen origami dress (short) and I bought black patent stilettoes from Dune to go with it but now I'm really stuck for accessories. I'm petite and will be wearing my hair long & curled if this helps.
Anyone any ideas?
Oh it's a relaxed black tie event I'm going to for New Years.

shouldn't think you'd need much else - sparkly earrings maybe, and a dressy watch

long curly hair means much less accessorising than same outfit with severe bob.

Hi, I wouldn't wear much else bar a nice watch. What about a very thin silver necklace with a small classy drop a little bit longer than a choker but close to the neck?

breil

you either love it or hate it

Sorry I can't type quick, I'm bfing.
It's gorgeous isn't it? It's strapless and very fitted, cocktaily, the shoes are closed toe pumps, with a slight platform (10cm) and are what my sister calls bedroom shoes.
I like big sparkly rings but I have thin fingers and they always look like they wear me. Where can I get a nice unfussy necklace?

thin silver sounds nice, love the briel but not the price.

Less is more with a black dress especially with long hair down. Got a nice evening bag?
