God I'm useless at this fashion malarky!!

Have black/white polka dress - mock wrap, v neck.

Need a little 3/4 sleeve cardi/shrug but not sure on colour? Can't be bright pink cos friend wearing.

Or I wear it with black cardi I have already and go for some coloured shoes and a fancy necklace.

Anyone got any suggestions please? TIA

What's the occasion? Maybe silver, or gold shoes depending on what you generally wear in the way of jewellery?

JackieNo · 21/05/2008 21:39

And any chance of a link to the dress? Also what sort of budget?

harpomarx · 21/05/2008 21:42

black cardi sounds fine

otherwise white

or red - so long as you don't stand too close to bright pink friend.

bright green ok too

hell, all colours ok except navy.

same applies shoes in my book, think black fine, white fine etc etc.

what do you mean by fancy necklace?

S1ur · 21/05/2008 21:42

where from? can we see?

Yes black cardi sounds okay I suppose buit you'd want to dress up with shoes/bag/jewellery.

There are some fab shoes about at mo, how do you feel about chunky heels etc? WHat colours do you like? gold? red? green?

JackieNo · 21/05/2008 21:44

red shrug?
BLue cardi? (bit too pale, maybe)

Vivace · 21/05/2008 21:46

What event? Wedding? red could be nice. or bright blue. I like this cardi - it's very nice on -cropped. www.lkbennett.com/products/clothing/clothingknitwear/juice/pid-28824rose
There are other pretty, beaded cardigans on the site.
