Ok. I got 3 new dresses yesterday. I am still not used to dressing this body. Here are pics of the dresses. What color/style shoes and purse would you go with for each?

    Quote my post and see if you need to, but you type

    but the IMG needs to be lower case.

    Thanks, Aurora!

    OK -- Black of course would work with all of them and brown with the first two. Also gray with any of them.

    Metallics are neutral, so any gold, silver, copper, etc.

    I'd love to see a bright pink with the middle one or the last one. You can't go wrong matching a color in the dress with the purse or shoes. I think you could also get away with a bright yellow with any of them.

    I think a really cute strappy white sandle/wedge or peep-toe pump would look really classy with any of them, for what it's worth.

    I think black or gray would look bad with the first dress.

    It has black trim.

    And black goes with everything but navy blue.

    Boot with the first, Black kitten heels with the last. Not sure about the second one...

    No black trim, just cut outs on the bottom make it look like it. I have a pair of strappy hemp looking wedges that I was thinking with that one.

    A greyish/tan heel with the second

    5" saddle oxford heels with the third

    sound ok?

    The obvious choice is black but yu can be more fun then that. Silver is always a great show and goes with most dresses. They should be strappy because of the lightness of the dresses.

    I would personally go with gold sandals for the 1st dress.

    black with the 2nd and 3rd dresses.

    I'm not going with tradition!! I say color...purple, green, yellow, etc. I think you could get a cool pair of purple heels and a purple bag that would work with all of them. For the first dress...strappy sandals...gold maybe! A pop of color would be great...and the bag and shoes do not have to match...just coordinate well.

    I love your dresses! I'd go for gold accessories and shoes for the first, green for the other two.

    Is that gold of beige with the pink dress? if beige, find some wedges that are the same color or if gold some gold sandals would be great. I'm not to big on floral print dresses so the second dress is not my fave but black peep toe heels for the last dress would work ;-)

    Strappy hemp would work. There are so many options! Black WOULD look fine, but that's only one option. :-)

    Be careful with boots. You will sweat to death in them unless you're going to be inside with AC the whole time. The humidity alone will kill you. But come fall and winter, a sweater over it with boots would be awesome.

    gold strappy sandals with the 1st or a nude heel (although I like the boot idea Amber had)
    White with the second ..maybe a pump or wide strap sandal with chunky heals
    Black pumps with a bow but anything in black for the last dress.

    I'm gonna shake things up a bit and ask your age and what you plan on wearing each dress for. It matters, trust me...

    I am 29. (shhhhh............ dont tell) the first will be just going to hang out or go to the mall or maybe dinner and a movie with the BF. Second is specifically for his birthday dinner (fancy schmancy place) next weekend at the beach. Third is just super cute and I will find a place to wear it. Prolly night out with the girls or something.

    Gold sandal or wedge with the first
    Nude heel (peeptoe if possible) with the second if going fancy (you would want something to blend in and not compete with the dress)
    Something black and strappy with the third

    Ok. Good, I'm 33, I'll tell you what I'd wear with them since we aren't too far apart in age.

    If you are going to wear the first for dinner/movie/date wear I'd put a denim jacket over it and wear low strappy sandals (or even nicer flip flops). Because we are getting close to fall I'd also extend the wear of the dress and wear cowboy style boots with it. I'm 5'11, so I tend to wear lower shoes as a rule most of the time, more comfortable and I can walk farther in them depending on the venue. I'm also always cold so the jacket comes in handy. Brown purse with this one.

    Second: White strappy sandals with a colorful clutch purse. I'd wear something with about 2"-3" heel with this even if I'm Amazonian...LOL They are dressier...

    Third: Black shoes, nothing too clunky since the dress is light. I'd wear strappy cork wedges. And a black clutch purse.

    I'm sure you will look awesome in all 3. I know how hard it is to dress a body you aren't used to. I lost 40+ pounds recently and it's weird wearing single digit sizes and not having to hide a certain feature. Enjoy!

    Love the denim jacket and sandal/cowboy boot with that first dress! So cute!

    Everyone suggesting boots: She lives in Florida. It is still 95 degrees and 100% humidity. She would DIE in boots this time of year.
