This is for a girls night out - speakeasy, strip club, and out dancing. It's dressier than my normal GNO attire, but the event is a special celebration.
What shoes and jewelry? And I guess I need to find a clutch or wristlet (a cheap one). The event is in less than a week, so there's not really time to shop online.
UPDATE: What do you think about this? It's kind of showing up small, but I already own everything except the gold clutch, which is cheap and on Amazon. Its a double strand long gold necklace, leather and gold wrap bracelet, gold clutch, and nude wedges.

I think the wedges are fine and I like the bracelet and clutch. I would not do a longer layer necklace due to the v neck of the dress. Since you have larger earrings send some bracelets on your wrist, I would likely not wear a necklace. Super cute- have a good time!
Eta- Clearly I cannot see. I would add Some kind of drop earrings to the outfit (and eliminate the longer necklace).
Is the ivory bow removeable? That is the only thing that is throwing me off about the dress. If it is, I say lose it, and wear a black belt and black pumps. Just thinking about a strip club and night club environment, and think the bow makes it look too youthful, instead of flirty and fun.

Looks great to me! I would make sure I could dance in the shoes before heading out.

this is where i'm at too. well, not daytime necessarily, but not at all what i'd picture for a strip joint and dancing. this says white wine and the symphony or something.

The place we are going dancing is sort of a weird club - not at all a hip, young crowd. It's a good mix of people from mid 20's all the way into people in their 60's, there's a Sinatra room, some men wear suits, women can wear anything from skinny jeans to a cocktail dress. It will be fine for the speakeasy, and I'm okay if I don't fit in at the strip club.
They are either gold or bronze, the description doesn't say. Grrr. But I ordered them because they are $70 shoes on sale for $20 and ship in two days through Amazon prime.
ETA: DSW has the same pair on their site (but sold out) and says the heel is metallic gold.

DirtySouth - If you are also pulling in black elsewhere, like how @blonde407 suggested with a black belt, black in the bracelet, etc... I think they would look great. Have fun!

How about this? Obviously the ivory ribbon wouldn't be hanging down.
Hahahahahaa. I just saw this. I have no idea how I posted this by accident but it couldn't be funnier. Hahahahaha. I'm not even going to delete it. This is my contribution to this thread.
