I've ordered this dress (pic inc) ...

[Laiste]

It's dark green.
Big party coming up - lots of people, some i don't know - i'd like to look glam but not stand out too much. I'm hour glass and bustier than the model.

Nude kitten heels? Nude tights?

Or should i try to find some dark green shoes? Or is that too matchy?Dark tights with dark shoes? Bare legs?!

I don't get out much these days! Haven't dressed up for ages. What are your thoughts?

I think silver shoes silver bag, Sainsburys have a sequined silver bag in at the moment.

I like the idea of red as well though but only if you have red handbag too.

Gold!

Silver shoes. Spotlight should be on the dress, not shoes!

Black shoes with very sheer barely black tights.

I would go with gold shoes, fine denier black tights and large leopard bag, large red earrings and red lipstick

Not nude. Definitely not nude. Everything seems to think it goes with everything but it really doesn’t.

Not black shoes or bag! That's for every day. I agree with pp - go for red, pink, silver or gold. I was going to suggest orange. A contrasting clutch bag.

I'm so glad I wasn't the only one to think this! And I would wear that during the day too not just at night. And gasp, with tights. Of pretty much any colour.
If I wanted to wear heels I might look for the essa/issa (?) or Joanie platforms.

I'd go very sheer black tights and black suede shoes, maybe kitten heeled slingbacks. You don't need any more sparkles with that dress, its lovely!

There are some great shoes on Joanie.

I would too. For day wear, dark red platform docs, burgundy pattern tights and long faux fur coat.

My mother said ‘Red and green should never be seen except on an Irish Colleen’

Red shoes no knickers. (That's the saying, not a suggestion!)

I am going off topic I know. But my mother always did, and still does say "never trust a man wearing white shoes" 😂

I didn't get it then, and I don't get it now.

My mother had the same type of view except her's was never trust a man in a white polo neck jumper!

So basically any man wearing anything white are not to be trusted 😀

Yes i've seen some darker red which i thought might be better ...

Gold - lovely but i might feel a bit OTT

Bright pink 🩷 i'd love to! I live bright pink.

Yes if i go bare leg i will bung on fake tan.

Sometimes i find tights make dresses ride up so i don't mind bare legs ...

Blue Banana are pretty good. They are true to size and not skimpy re: arms and bust.

I've had a few bits from them. Their jumper sleeves are nice and long!

Burgundy would work.

Personally I would not be afraid of green shoes.

Do you know what - i adore bright pink and orange together! In summer i wore a bright orange silk pair of palazzo trousers and a pink vest top and loved it!

Not sure i would do it with sparkly green though ...
