    Hi guys!

    Have gotten great opinions on this type of question last year, and going to try again!

    I just purchased a dress very similar to this:

    What would you suggest for shoes, accessories, hairstyles?

    :)

    Thanks for any help!

    I have a very similar dress but not halterneck and I wear cute red shoes and a cropped red cardie with it and it looks good. Then just a flick of black eyeliner and some red lppie and you are ready to roll out!

    One night I wore my hair in victory rolls with it and got lots of compliments!

    I just wore a simple necklace with it....a silver swallow on a silver chain one time and a little red & white toadstool on a dark chain another. Normally I wear loads of jewellery but not with this dress.

    Pearls, and red lipstick. Go get 'em!

    + 1 on the red lippie and black eyeliner. Old hollywood style make-up is stunning with that kind of dress.

    Out of curiousity, where did you get the dress? *covets*

    On Etsy (I can't control myself on there!)

    This is the listing specifically: http://www.etsy.com/transaction/36524879

    Thanks to all! Yeah - red lippy and some black eyeliner, I think you're all right! May not even wear any jewelry, come to think of it - as dress and makeup will be quite strong. LOVE the idea of little red shoes! I think I will totally do that!

    I bought red plastic heart earrings and a matching ring in Penneys a while back to go with a rockabilly dress, I like tiny bits of jewellery like that, colourful and kitsch :) Victory roll and off you go!
