Question for the fashionistas
My brother's wedding is coming up and I have found a simple black one shoulder knee length dress for the wedding. There is a little bit of beading on the one shoulder but other than that the dress is very simple and kind of drapes down to my knees. I had a gc for the dress so I am giving myself $30 for shoes. I have two options, I can spice it up with these or do a simple black strapy heal which I already have. Thoughts? The wedding is pretty formal. Thanks
Re: Question for the fashionistas
um do you wear a six 6 or 6.5 (only sizes avail)? if so i'm jealous cause i want those shoes!!
i vote spice it up!
Ditto. I also love a big cocktail ring to add sparkle to an outfit (instead of, not with a statement bracelet).
I'm always going to vote spice it!
If you're looking for inexpensive jewelry/wrap/clutch/whatever, there's a Charming Charlie in Cedar Park, and another location in the Domain. They have all kinds of good stuff!

I would definitely try to wear shoes with color if you can. I think that is part of the fun of simple black dresses, accessorize boldly and you can wear the dress over and over again with different accessories and make it seem different!
Spice!
You will be suprised what other outfits you will find to wear them with if you buy a pair you love!
