the dress has a "changeable" bow - so what colour is yours?
I think the bow in the pic with a little gold version of the shrug-thing you link to would be lovely, simple black shoes perhaps slingbacks?

what about a tux jacket to give structure and play up the prettiness of the dress?

think that cardi will be wrong with the sleeves of the dress

Pashmina / scarf thingy, one of the ones with the sparkle threads through? Accessorise and Oasis are both good on this stuff atm

......but because you don't like jackets I'd go with a wrap type thingy < back-peddles furiously >

Lulu, are you always such high maintenance?

I'm worn out.

Ronaldinhio · 14/10/2008 20:40

ok ok what you need is a decent tux that fits your shoulders..then no longer boxy or square on anyone
tis a thing of shape and wonder then and really worth persevering until you get one to suit

or what about an evening coat?

again a thing of wonder and awe like a wizards cloak

Ronaldinhio · 14/10/2008 20:44

like this??

Ronaldinhio · 14/10/2008 20:46
