How to accessorise this dress

7 replies

Attending a wedding in a couple of months and have this dress which I think I am happy with 😂

What colour shows and accessories would you recommend? Any ideas for jewellery? My instinct is for some statement earrings as I don't wear lots of necklaces but maybe something barely-there as a necklace, I've never really suited the big statement ones.

Am open to any ideas, colour clash or metallic etc. Probably some kind of platform shoe, not too high but to give some height without falling over (am clumsy even without a drink in me 🤦). I have mid-blonde hair am late 30s and about 5'5" tall, size 14(ish).

Thank so much in advance for any ideas ❤️

I'd go for silver shoes and accessories

I was going to say silver too.

I'd say gold dainty accessories.

Single pendant necklace, couple of rings, bracelets or a watch and some nice studs.

I would only wear statement earrings if you're planning on wearing your hair up or with it back and tucked behind your ears.

Don’t know but absolutely love the dress! I’d lean towards silver too I think.

Accentuate your décolletage with statement earrings only if attention to the upper half of your loveliness appeals because statement eartings will draw the eye up.

I too would go for silver jewellery if you like that particular colour tone against your skin. Lots of bangles and pretty watch? Not a chunky fit bit/data style watch!
The dress is fabulous. You’ll like fantastic. Heads will turn! Have a lovely time.

Stunning colour. I’d go for a bright pink. I’d have a slim clutch and pink shoes. You could probably have the clutch in silver and shoes in pink. I’d go for minimal jewellery as the dress makes the statement. Sparkly studs.
I hope you have a great time Smile

Could have a flower in your hair rather than lots of jewellery?
