accessory help

I have a work party to go to tomorrow with Dh's firm. I went shopping last night and bought this dress. It doesn't look as baggy on me as it does on the model. I added a skinny black belt and I'm wearing black heels but I need help accessorizing. Any ideas?

Re: accessory help

  • That dress is fabulous!

    Do you have a chunky bracelet or big cocktail ring? I feel like the top is so dramatic that it needs a big accessory to go with it. 

    I wouldn't wear a necklace since the neckline is so bold. But maybe big silver earrings.

    You don't have red shoes, do you? I feel like it needs a splash of red.

    All of this is exactly what I was going to say. Definitely a big bracelet and earrings and skip a necklace with that neckline. I love the dress!  

  • Funny you mention red. I was wearing these amazing red suede pumps from the Mad Men collection when I tried it on. I'm wearing my black louboutains. Since it's a lawyer function. I don't want to look to flashy. :)  This dress is going to do double duty for a wedding the following weekend so I'll bring out the red shoes then! :)

    Well I guess the black loubs will still have a pop of red on the sole Wink
