What to wear with a red bandage dress?

[Pennies]

Following on from my previous thread about needing a glam dress I have bought a red bandage dress. Haven't got a link but it's got a deep V neck with v. wide shoulder 'straps'. It sits just above the knee.

I will be wearing a 'diamond' necklace and small drop 'diamond' earrings. No bracelet but a large red cocktail ring.

I need shoes, bag & wrap to go with. Any colour goes (maybe gold - have some gold snakeskin shoes) - was thinking black but maybe that's too safe. I've got these nude shoes but what bag and wrap would I wear with them?

Dress sounds gorgeous - what make is it to see if we can find a link . . .

I love those shoes and often coveted them so would wear them. Perhaps a gold clutch bag or I love a bit of leopard which could look cool with the red or maybe too bet lynch for you.

Well I was thinking maybe a snakeskin clutch?

LK Bennet do a gold snakeskin clutch here which is a perfect match with my gold snakeskin shoes (by Matalan!! ) Is it too matchy matchy to have coordinating shoes and bag these days?

I think nude shoes are great

I wonder whether you'd consider not matching the earrings and necklace? Big hoop earrings would casual it up a bit

Snakeskin clutch excellent idea

Here's the dress.

Saucy!

Woah! That dress is gorgeous! Very Hervé Léger

The clutch would be perfect but not with those shoes imo.

Got a link to the gold shoes?

Love the dress and love that clutch!

Shoes. These aren't the ones exactly but as close as dammit.

The pattern on my shoes is identical to the LK Bennett clutch.

I love those nude shoes in your first link more classy than the gold ones.

Gold clutch is gorgeous.

sailorsgal - I agree with you re. the shoes but i don't think the gorgeous clutch will go well with the nude shoes.

The gold shoes are nice too though. You have great taste.

Look for a new clutch then. I agree about the nude shoes. The dress should be the focus

What about this bag then?

crikey £395. Nice though

Nice - or this one

Or, what about this with theses?

I'm trying not to look at the prices. They make my eyes hurt.

They're lovely as well - I'm a great help but as others have said - you have fab taste and a good budget.

Actually - forget that Herve Leger bag. It's foul, huge and too expensive. I thought it was satin and sequins and small.

Wow - it is big - I didn't look at the model shots.

I like the anya one I linked too.

Or you could go all out with Judith Lieber.

Think on balance I would go nude shoes and gold bag rather than black.

The snakeskin one is fab.

Yes, the gold bag with the nude shoes would look classy. I'm not a fan of red and black.

That enormous bag is more of a "grapple" than a "clutch"

I meant the gold Marano bag. It's a nice gold
