    Hi everyone,

    I've got a wedding coming up this summer and I'm pretty sure that I'm going to go with this dress http://www.littlewoodsireland.ie/kimberley-walsh-full-skirt-bib-dress/1379116830.prd?_requestid=83631

    I was wondering if I could get some advice around what accessories to team with it. I'm thinking black shoes, black drop earrings and bracelet. The problem is I really hate my arms and even tho it will be summer time I don't think I'd be comfortable if they were uncovered... Originally I decided I'd wear a short black blazer as I'd be most comfortable in that, but I tried a black shrug on over the dress today and unfortunately it takes from the lovely black strap detail of the dress!
    So now I'm thinking of investing in a nice black shawl to wear over shoulders and maybe tie at the back.... Although I usually dislike wearing shawls as I feel a bit old fashioned in them!!

    Anyway just thought I'd see if anyone here had any ideas??

    There is a product called canopi they are supposed to be sleeves that go under a dress, havent tried them myself but have heard they are good but expensive around 40 euro mark.

    For nails I would do vivid pink with black french manicure style tips. Or even a french manicure with black tips instead of white.

    Hope you have a good time and that dress looks fab!
