At the Rack & it's crazy. Possible NYE dress?

Ok so I'm wearing the wrong underwear.
I think it's good

Yes. You would do this dress justice if it fits.

I love it but I worry about the lumps. Can you size up, or do you have underwear that will take care of that?

I have underwear. The dress is fully lined.
Can't size up

If you have the undies, I quite like it on you

I like it, if you have proper undies. What shoes will you wear it with?

Shoes are going to be tricky. The studs are a very dull iridescent brass. Black pumps?

Since you already have the proper undies, I say go for it! I really like this on you- TKO!

ETA: I would rather see this with metallic pumps- even if they don't match the studs. It's for New Year's Eve- glam it up!

I don't know why but I picture this with a medium blue shoe. I think blue and white are kind of an icy combination especially with the studs.

With the proper undergarments, I think that will be beautiful on you!
I vote non-black shoes. A color or metallic- I don't think you have to match metals.

Do you still have those snakeskin Rockport pumps? I think you had a matching clutch too? I wonder if the gold and blue tones in those (IIRC) would play well with the iridescent studs?

The rockports would be great, they're comfortable. They're a boogie though. I also have gold peep toe pumps, slightly less comfortable.

I love the architectural vibe of it. Kinda Ayn Rand meets glam rock.

Awesome. And looks phenomenal on you.

Curious how it would be with over the knee boots - too much, probably.

Elly, I love that description. Showed it to my boyfriend and he says it's spot on.

My dad bought it for me as part of my Christmas present since he didn't get me anything on Christmas Day. It's by Rebecca Taylor reduced to $100 from $400.

Fabulous dress, Anna! You will look like a winter queen. I'm sure you'll have the right footwear in your closet. Black for sure would work, but I also like the snakeskin idea. Or even a pair of booties.

I like it a lot, Anna! The Art Deco pattern of the studs is very cool.

And to those who haven't been to a Rack, or haven't been lately, I learned from a Rack SA that Nordstrom ships them new items every single day except Sunday, and they receive them the next day. This means that the most new merchandise arrives at the Rack on Tuesdays, when they get the Sunday AND Monday items.
