this dress?

If it is hot weather i'm thinking my wooden and tan gap platforms, if colder i'll be wearing black high heeled strappy sandals?

earrings? silver hoops? hair down (is long and brown) or up? make up (grey smokey eyes?)

have a chunky mirrored bangle? necklace to break up the expanse of huge norkage?

Hmm..not tan, I would say. Would look either too clashy or too similar.

Chunky mirrored bangle sounds nice, and silver necklace with silver or black shoes.

Or

Yellow shoes, with big, chunky yellow bracelets on one arm, nothing else.

Or

Purple shoes, gold accessories, but big chunky gold not thin gold (looks cheap)

oh no! was really hoping to wear them, they are more brown aren't they? you've got me thinking maybe I need to have think, maybe need silver strappy heels? poo.

Lizzylou · 01/06/2008 20:59

I love dress and shoes but not together...dress too posh, shoes too casual.

silver might work, with hoops. hair down.

Heathcliffscathy · 01/06/2008 21:02

they only have them in an 8 though...

Heathcliffscathy · 01/06/2008 21:02

OOh, silver Office shoes are much better.

Lizzylou · 01/06/2008 21:05

Agree that you need daintier shoes with the dress (great dress btw).

Heathcliffscathy · 01/06/2008 21:05

because the moggle is size 0, the back looks much lower than it actually is. i was having loads of trouble with the cut out arms, but have settled on this in either this colour

or this colour

it is my favourite fitting bra and the purple haze colour looks fine, but sorbet is on order and might look even better, only tiny bit peeping out of arm pit!

it is a good quesiton though as the bra issue was nearly a deal breaker.

maidamess · 01/06/2008 21:06

Why not go for the clash factor?

hither

JackieNo · 01/06/2008 21:06

Hmm - nice or weird?
A bit bondage imo, but could work.
These are nice
Not sure about these, but maybe?

Heathcliffscathy · 01/06/2008 21:06

sorry, on second bra link, get the purple haze colour up, that is the second option. NOT BLACK!

OP posts:
maidamess · 01/06/2008 21:07

Your bras are too sexy my computer won't let me look at them. Doh!!

Heathcliffscathy · 01/06/2008 21:08

god those office shoes are gorgeous aren't they! but they keep saying only available in size 8. does that mean in shops as well? or just online?

yes purple would be good, then would ahve to do purple bangle no?

Heathcliffscathy · 01/06/2008 21:08
