Sorta 40s style. I actually also like it with the sandals you're wearing...Carribean style </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-ideas-for-a-silk-dress#post-1719852 Sat, 27 Aug 2016 06:09:34 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1719852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #4 for this dress.

I like the first and last shoes shown. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-ideas-for-a-silk-dress#post-1719815 Sat, 27 Aug 2016 03:10:47 +0000 Karie 1719815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is very pretty, and I think it would look fine with black, ballet flats. You could also try silver, gold, or nude flats. You don't need stockings if you don't want to wear them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-ideas-for-a-silk-dress#post-1719814 Sat, 27 Aug 2016 03:10:32 +0000 Sally 1719814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Firecracker and Runcarla.<br /> Runcarla I do have some nude wedges but they are quite casual.<br /> Runcarla, you're right. It's not my usual style but about once or twice a year I have to dress up and while it takes me out of my comfort zone, I need to attend prize giving etc. I have taken some photos of my shoe options. I don't want to buy new shoes because I only ever wear sneakers boots and flats usually. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-ideas-for-a-silk-dress#post-1719800 Sat, 27 Aug 2016 02:31:30 +0000 Carla 1719800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sally, freebies from family are opportunities to experiment. I see this dress as being somewhat DVF wrap dress. Don't over invest if it is not your style, but DO have some fun trialling something different. Do it with your flats and see how you feel. FWI2' it does look very nice on you - suits your shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-ideas-for-a-silk-dress#post-1719799 Sat, 27 Aug 2016 02:30:44 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1719799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The dress is gorgeous on you, Sally. I think you could wear it with black ballet flats, yes. Or dressy, strappy sandals in metallic, black patent, or a nude tone. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-ideas-for-a-silk-dress#post-1719795 Sat, 27 Aug 2016 02:26:16 +0000 Sally 1719795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My sister has given me this silk dress. I have some black pumps but usually wear flats. Do you think I could wear with black flats? Do you think it needs stockings? I'm thinking for an evening event in spring /Sumner. 2nd photo shows the material close up. </p>
