and if so is that a bad thing ?

Seriously, I have a sensible knee length chest covered dress (kinda Jackie O ish?!?) from Coast to wear. It is blues and white. I have worn it once and was not happy with my shoes. And also hd no bag.
I also have no money so went to Tesco and got a white bag for £5 and therefore white shoes. Oh god it sounds awful now. I will have to search to see if I can find some....
What do you think so far? I feel they would be too slutty worn with a mini skirt......

Am I just too slutty for you all to speak to me?????
You can't all be busy out having real lives .
Bump!

I don't think they'd be slutty with the outfit you described, maybe with a mini skirt but it's the whole outfit that makes something slutty, not just one item!

Go for it.

with a sensible floral dress they might pass muster but not with anything strapless, cleavagey or shorter than knee length

I'd have suggested pewter for bag and/or shoes - it can be a bit prissy (esp with sensible dress) to be too matchy-matchy

They sound nice but I need a link - I am very nosey!!! I think it's ace that you got them from Tescos.

cosima · 06/06/2008 20:44

if you are matching your bag to your shoes, then you are not slutty, you need to avoid being a frump.
get a red bag

VanillaPumpkin · 06/06/2008 20:47

Thank you!
OverMyDeadBody - I agree and because the dress is classy (imo) and tailored it takes the edge off.
Phew! Dress is not strapless, nor cleavagey or shorter than knee length (is on the knee). Top half is really quite prim.
I did worry about the matching handbag and shoes but was really struggling with colours. Tried silver but it really did not work....
Feel better now.
So are those fascinator headbands for weddings passe now?

You see I could go bright pink for a bag....
I am relieved you think I will be frumpy Cosima. That makes me much more confident to wear them ....

I can't find them anywhere...sob!

New Look is ace for party shoes
lovely and not at all slutty
ditto
but really I am going to bed...

MrsBadger · 06/06/2008 20:55

slutty
sluttier
sluttiest

I think wedges are probably the way forward. And avoid patent.

VanillaPumpkin · 06/06/2008 20:57

The dress is like this in style. But like the Macy mono one at the bottom in colour....

MrsBadger · 06/06/2008 21:00

oh I see

very nice

I stand by my fisrt link with the button on the front

I wouldn;t do a fascinator - it;d detract from the bold dress. Maybe just a single flower in your chignon

VanillaPumpkin · 06/06/2008 21:01

Hmm. Going by your links Mrs B they are slutty then . They are an enclosed shoe though and the peep bit is small just showing big toe. Heels are white and spindley though and there in lies my insecurity. Have I bought white stilletoes??? Eeek!

what is wrong with being a bit slutty? with a nice prim dress sounds like a fab combination.

MrsBadger · 06/06/2008 21:05

Oh I'm aure they're fine - in fact the second non-slutty ones I postred (wiith the frill) would look shockingly frumpy with that dress

youi have done the right thing

Just make sure you leave your bling and your red nail varnish off

BED

VanillaPumpkin · 06/06/2008 21:05

Thank you. I might try the wedges.....We have a New Look here.

I actually think the headband thing would annoy me so I am happy to drop that idea too.

Shoes were £15 and are not patent.

OP posts:
VanillaPumpkin · 06/06/2008 21:19

Shoes are like this but solid leather and white with no bow so actually only a little like this .

OP posts:
VanillaPumpkin · 06/06/2008 21:28

Great! Thanks all. I am going for the little bit of slutty then. DH will be thrilled .
Have to say didn't like the ruffly shoes you linked too. Agree to frumpy esp with classy dress.

OP posts:
VanillaPumpkin · 06/06/2008 21:29

Too....
And no bling or red nail polish. Noted.
