    I don't know what you'd put with it but holy jaysus OP, that dress is gorgeous. Love love love the colours, you could wear no accessories and that'd still look fab.

    If it were me I'd skip the necklace and go for really statement earrings, with my hair off the face. Then just some bangles.
    Shoes wise, I think a wedge heel would be best, I'm sure there'll be lots of standing and walking at the races!

    Thanks! :D

    Yeah i might skip the necklace alrite and just go with earrings.. maybe silver? duno to go with green or maybe white clutch bag... i found out its ladies day im actually going to now but im sticking with the dress cos im pregnant and its the comfiest thing to wear!
    would a head piece be too much.... i think so...

    theres a pack of really nice gold and green ( kinda like the green in the dress) bangles in penneys at the moment they are €2 for a pack of 10 which isnt bad at all!!

    I'd do the same as Twee definitely.
    If you can find a smaller version of these I think it would look well. Colours match the dress.

    For the bag/clutch I'd go for a block colour as well, not white. You don't need to add too much to that dress. It's amazing on it's own.

    all headpiece and nice earrings, no chain. have a great day!

    If you're going to the races and are planning on spending any time outside it'd be worthwhile to give some thought to a cardigan/shawl/jacket/coat, etc. It's Ireland and the Irish weather isn't being too kind to outdoor activities at the moment! :( Maybe something like a silk patterned scarf with colours to match what's in the dress or the accessories you choose. A scarf also quite handy if the weather is nice or if you're inside as it can be easily folded up and put in your bag or across your arm without being too bulky or heavy.

    Beautiful dress!
    Maybe something to match the colours like green/turquise or if your skin is dark enough for it maybe gold.(I'm pale and gold looks so bad on me!)
    A few nice bangles and I'd say go for the headpiece!
