Accessories Ideas for Outfit for next week!

Hi I'm going to the races, spotted this site and have joined up. I've recently lost 3 stone and am down to a size 14, normal BMI, and I treat myself to a new dress for a trip to the Races. I think, as a nude coloured dress (officially dusky pink) I need to find a bright colour to go with it. Now can I find a handbag and shoes to match>!? Not on your nelly! So I have picked 2 pair shoes I think go and really can't decide which! It MAY depend on what bag/fascinator I can find on Saturday! would a thin belt in the contrasting colour look ok? Advice please?! I'm new on here so sorry if I am in wrong section. Lisa

Can you link to a similar dress? How about gold or silver? Angie has been pairing bright red with dusky pink. http://youlookfab.com/2012/04/.....ensembles/

What do you think? Do you have any possibilities in your closet?

I like it with the first pair of shoes. I love the bright pink with the softer pink (it looks almost gray in the photo). Maybe some silver jewelry?

Hi and welcome! What a gorgeous dress first of all.
I like either shoe - as you say, it may depend on the hat/fascinator. My first thought was to look for a bag in a neutral metallic such as silver. Then, since I don't know many UK shops except for Dorothy Perkins, I checked out their website.
There are lots of clutches and small handbags on the site at least.

I like the cool tones of the second shoe with the bag I put in picture below from the website.
But again, have no idea what hat options you will find. Can you take the shoes with you to shop? I would just keep it all in same color family, and not try to "match". It just has to "go".

Have fun!
