Contest: Accessorize the Dress!

Almost every day, I provide fashion advice and styling tips to my readers. Ironically, sometimes I have a hard time dressing myself!

Case in point: my sister's "non-wedding" is coming up in early June, and I'm planning on wearing the Flared Caraz Dress from Anthropologie, which is the most comfortable, flattering and adorable dress I've ever owned.


Unfortunately, I'm a bit stuck on how to accessorize. The dress has so many colors in it that almost anything would work with it, and with too many choices, I can't decide. I've tried it on with every pair of dressy shoes in my closet, and it works fairly well with all of them, but nothing  is really grabbing me. And jewelry? NO idea.

And then it hit me - you guys can help me. 

So, here's the deal:
  • Go virtual shopping for me! Yay!
  • Leave a comment below with links to a pair of shoes, a clutch, and jewelry that you think would work with this dress.
  • The grand total of the shoes, clutch and jewelry must be $250 or less.
The event details:
  • It's an evening event
  • The dress code is ambiguous, but it's definitely nowhere near formal.
  • The weather will probably be in the 70's.
And one caveat:
  • No sky-high heels, please. I can handle up to a 4-inch heel and a bit of a platform, but I need something fairly comfy.

You have until 11:59 PM EST, Sunday April 22nd to leave your picks in the comments. The winner will receive a blog post dedicated to their picks and a $50 gift card to the online retailer of their choice.

I can't wait to see what you come up with!
