If it is formal, especially corporate, closed toe pumps might be a better choice. Do you have any you could use? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041709 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 15:27:49 +0000 Dana 1041709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think what you've put together is cute, but I agree with abc that the sandals dress it down some. It looks a touch summery, too...which is fine if you live in a warm climate. </p> <p>If you want to dress the look up without spending too much, I think adding a metallic that's not too expensive would be perfect. </p> <p>You'll get tons of use out of this dress sinc eye can. Have the look so easily. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041690 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 15:02:55 +0000 abc 1041690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Neel, I like your idea of using what you already have and the accessories you chose&nbsp;really brighten up the outfit. &nbsp;However, I would have to ask - how formal is the cocktail event? &nbsp;Take it for what it's worth, but I come from a more corporate / conservative environment, and when I go to cocktail events I tend to wear dressier shoes than the ones in your pic. &nbsp;Only you know the degree of dressiness required. &nbsp;Also, would weather be any factor? &nbsp;I know I would be cold in those shoes if I had to be outside at all - but again only you know the environment you'll be in. &nbsp;Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041642 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 12:55:47 +0000 Neel 1041642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So here's my final outfit with the accessories and shoes. &nbsp;I would add my gold watch and the animal print clutch to the outfit,</p> <p>I already own the sandals in the picture. &nbsp;I&nbsp;did not want to invest in leopard pumps right now as I also own leopard flats. &nbsp;And black accessories was making the entire outfit a bit too dark.</p> <p>Do you think the overall outfit works? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041620 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 11:43:41 +0000 Anonymous 1041620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress! In addition to the other suggestions, you might consider a metallic like pewter, silver or gold. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041594 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 08:47:53 +0000 Neel 1041594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Nicole! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041591 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 08:06:06 +0000 Nicole Van Buuren 1041591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When wearing burgundy/maroon it is best to look for rich colour's like black,brown,gray or even cream.Using one of these colour's is more sophisticated and elegant and i totally agree with the others by wearing leopard skin &nbsp;heels or even a cream colour wedge heel it will bring out the burgundy colour.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041559 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 04:19:58 +0000 Neel 1041559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Amy and Joy! &nbsp;It's a formal cocktail party (DH's company). &nbsp;I have black hair. &nbsp;So black necklace and clutch&nbsp;would be better? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041556 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 04:11:03 +0000 Anonymous 1041556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know how dressy you have to be but love the idea of leopard or snake with the dress! Either silver or gold would work. I like brown with deep red, but you could use about any color. Except you may want to avoid green except possibly for the holidays<br /> ETA: I just noticed your questions about back or nude. It's hard to tell without seeing you. If your hair is light, go with the nude. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041555 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 04:11:01 +0000 Amy 1041555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The animal print shoes would be great with this dress. I think knee length is fine for a cocktail party. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-colored-accessories-would-go-with-a-burgundymaroon-dress#post-1041551 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 03:54:53 +0000 Neel 1041551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After going on a mad hunt for a cocktail dress (unfortunately none of the beautiful dresses fit me due to my weird body shape!), I finally bought this one &nbsp;I am not even sure if it is cocktail appropriate? &nbsp;The dress hits me on my knee. &nbsp;</p> <p>Since it's a simple dress, I was thinking of these&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.ninewest.com/Martina/10144804,default,pd.html?variantSizeClass=&amp;variantColor=JJ4XEA5&amp;cgid=7006&amp;prefn1=catalog-id&amp;prefv1=ninewest-catalog">http://www.ninewest.com/Martin.....st-catalog</a>&nbsp;shoes to add some pattern and interest&nbsp;into the outfit. &nbsp;Or black pumps?</p> <p>For accessories, I was thinking&nbsp;of a black hose, necklace and clutch.&nbsp;</p> <p>Or do you think gold / nude accessories and shoes&nbsp;would look better?</p> <p>Please help!!!!!! </p>
