In the interest of talking about a dress for me to wear to a garden party wedding on every possible message board, I'm going to do it here too. I PIPed a bunch of options over the last few weeks but thanks to some genius who suggested NY & Co, I think I'm keeping this one. Help me accessorize! I was thinking of hunting for a vintage clutch or purse or a cheap forever-21-ish one.

I bought these shoes on Poshmark (what a great site!) Would they work?

Love the dress. The shoes are great. Wedges won't get stuck in the lawn like heels.

Love the dress and I think the shoes go well. I would probably skip a necklace and do drop pearl earrings.

Love the dress, and I think the shoes work nicely. I think hair up would be pretty.

My hair is right above my collarbone now. I'm going to look for short hair style options.

I would do stud earrings- maybe pearls? I have pink pearl studs and I keep thinking of those with that dress. Also I would do a pale pink/blush handbag that coordinates with the flowers on the dress. You could do the same w/ yellow but I'm not really a yellow person

Love the dress, and those shoes are perfect! No to mention all the use you'll get out of them in the future.
I'd keep accessories simple since there's a lot going on with the pattern.
Maybe a few bangles?

I was looking for something that would pick up the color of the petals in the dress. This is Rebecca Minkoff.

I love the dress and the shoes! I'm a minimalist, so I'd probably just do a bracelet and earrings. Cute bag, like the one above.

I'd do gold bangles or a cuff bracelet.

This dress is amaze. I think those wedges would be fine. I would do a stud earring or small tear drop, but I'm not big on super dangly earrings for myself. Definitely need some arm candy. And I am going to +1 on pop of color with a clutch.

LOVE! I second hair down & wavy or slightly curled. Maybe pin back the front or one side, if you want it out of your face a bit more. Soft makeup with a nude-pink or light-medium berry lip Jewelry: Simple large stud or teardrop shape drop earrings and classic cuff or bangle bracelet. Bag: a bright colored clutch (love that pink above) but ideally with a decent wrist or shoulder strap because you need both hands for apps and drinks at cocktail hour.

I was the genius! *preens*
I think the wedges are great, I love the suggestions of drop pearl earrings and maybe a bracelet to keep it simple. A nice chignon or doing some loose updo with wavy hair would be pretty!
