    Hi everyone!
    Would love some advice as to what accessories you guys would recommend with a dress. It's for a very good friends wedding!

    Boards won't let me post a link but it's a "definitions lace bodice dress" from littlewoods. It's got a nude/light pink top and then black skirt section.

    littlewoodsireland.ie/definitions-lace-bodice-dress/1339597243.prd

    I have a fab pair of black peep toes shoes so am tempted to stick with them and maybe black jewelry and handbag... But I've also ordered some nude shoes to try with it on the off chance I prefer that look.

    I'm wondering what colour shoes/accessories/hair piece would you go for? And also wondering what colour nails you'd recommend? Would also love recommendations for hairstyle too... I've long naturally straight hair!!

    Would love any advice... I'm not very good at choosing accessories, nails and hairstyles!

    I'd go for the black shoes you described, they sound lovely and they'd tie in with the black dress and draw some attention to your legs.

    Nails I'd keep understated, so either clear, french polish, nude or something like that.

    I'm not big on accessories myself so maybe you'd want more, but I'd wear either a silver watch/bracelet, or a small silver necklace. Nothing dangly or gold.

    I'd do my hair up. The lace neckline is pretty high so with hair down either side of your shoulders it would cover up your neckline completely. Something elegant to match the dress would be nice. If you don't like your hair up you could put a soft curl in it and pin some of it back to show off your shoulders a bit.

    I'd go with the black shoes, i think the nude would be a bit cutesy with the style of the dress.
    I'd probably do a black fascinator, but maybe something flat like http://www.debenhams.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10052_10001_087010250093_-1 with a bit of volume and loose waves in the hair...
    Nails, maybe a nude or french manicure with a black rose on the feature nail?
