SilentBob · 30/07/2009 21:18

I don't know how you feel about black at a wedding (personally, especially for an evening do, I think it's fine) but this dress is amazing. As are these shoes

The dress is also available with a red sash and that would beg for red shoes! Total £85.

could always go for gold or silver accessories. Would look nice as well. Just think that dress is a lovely colour and cut.
