So, I was at the thrift store yesterday and this dress called my name, as did the shoes (Veda... pst... buy us Veda... take us home... we're gorgeous...)
I want it to be my first dress for a special occasion, I'm thinking the accessories would be Black Nylons, Red Button Earrings and Red Bracelet...
Does anyone have any suggestions? For other accessories, makeup?
The dress is nice and I like your idea for earrings and bracelet. The shoes however look like a nice comfortable pair for casual use. (you did mention "special occasion") I would think a black pump or dressy sandal would be in order. But them I was always a fail at fashion even in male mode.
That's my 2 cents
Hugs,
Jeanette
Cute dress! Yeah i 2nd the thought of going with dressier shoes. Simple black pumps would be a nice. I'd think about a black or red bag to the mix.
Nylons i'm not a huge fan of and many in the fashion world are not. Bare your legs if you can (use some bronzer if it makes you more comfortable too).
There is a slight possibility that Tights could work, nice opaque black ones, but then i'd not wear pumps, rather something like a shootie or boots. But, that could also make your lower parts look fairly casual and although i can't see the dress close up, it looks pretty dressy
Love the idea of the red accessories you mentioned.
Cute Dress! You can team up it with a neck piece along with some chunky bracelets. Can team up with a stilleto or a wedge sandal too.
