Dress styling help

[aak0517]

I bought this dress for our rehearsal/rehearsal dinner in a few weeks. It's a lace column dress and is a pale blush which is a little hard to tell in the pics. I'd love some suggestions on how to style/accessorize it? I feel like I've had to make so many wedding "decisions" that it's made me indecisive about this haha.

For reference, wedding/rehearsal is outdoors on the terrace of a winery in a vineyard. The weather has been beautiful so open toed shoes would work. The rehearsal dinner is outside also at a restaurant in downtown Sonoma so it may cool off a bit at dinner. Would a shawl look ok for warmth?

I'm just not sure what shoes to wear or what style. The dress comes just below my knees.

TIA!

I would wear really great nude pumps with some chandelier earrings. Blush stones, pearls or rhinestones would look good. I would wear a matching cocktail ring too.

Great dress!

I'd pull my hair up and wear a pair of sparkly earrings. Like pave crystals or something. You could also toss on a bracelet, but don't think that's entirely necessary. Shoes I also think would be great if they were sparkly. I have a pair of peep toe kitten heels in sparkly silver that I think would look great with that. Sorry if that's sparkly overload, but if they're not called for on festivities related to your big day then I don't know when they are.

I agree, hair up, chandelier earrings with ring and a nude pump or something sparkly would work.

Nude pumps and sparkles chandelier earrings. No necklace, it may be too much with the lace and higher neckline.

You look absolutely stunning in that dress! It's perfection for your rehearsal dinner. I think that sky high nude pumps and some amazing chandelier earrings would be perfect. I agree with OP's,no necklace.

Thanks ladies! I like the idea of chandelier earrings and nude heels. Anyone have any suggestions on where to score some great earrings?

I like the ideas of the chandelier earrings, but with the dress being nude/beige, I would do a pop of color for my shoes. That dress looks GREAT on you.

I agree with nude shoes.

I always have pretty good luck at Macy's when looking for earrings.

I have good luck at Macy's too but my favorite is Francesca's. I would say Charming Charlies but that place gives me anxiety.

[mrspost08]

That dress looks amazing on you!

Look at Forever 21, the Rack, Macy for earings.

[aak0517]

Wow, thanks everyone! I wasn't sure if the dress looked good on me, but your feedback has been great and now I'm more confident about wearing it. I usually don't wear super form fitting dresses. So thank you!

it's really gorgeous!  where is it from?

Thank you! I got it at Maxstudio from the outlet mall. I can try to find it and see if it's online. It reminded me of the lace Anthro column dress that I missed out on!
