Bought this dress (blue, and green) to wear to my brother's rehearsal for his wedding and would love some ideas for shoes and accessories. I do have plain black pumps (both closed toed and peep toes), but was wondering if something else might work better. I am accessory challenged sometimes, but think something Kate Spade or Stella & Dot like might work.

okay, it's been 5 days I am bumping. I ordered these from Zappos:

but I would still like some suggestions for accessories.

For some reason I can't get your links to work right to see the pics [ETA: for the shoes, I mean], but for that dress, I think you could do just about anything! You could do a shoe with a bright pop of color, like a red patent heel. Or go for a neutral heel and then a clutch in a color you like ~ red, teal or blue, etc. Not sure exactly how the neckline goes ~ maybe post a pick of the dress on you? ~ but I'm thinking from looking at the pic that you could go with a pair of statement/dangly earrings and/or a bracelet to round things off. I don't know if I'm good with accessories though, so take any advice from me with a grain of salt! Lovely dress, BTW!

Sometimes if using tapatalk it takes forever to load links. Here are some photos of me wearing the shoes with the dress.

I found this necklace on Zappos too by House of Harlow 1960 and I love it, but it is $120 and that is not in my budget, but at least it gives me some inspiration:

Love the dress on you. It's almost a blank slate, in the sense that you could do almost anything for accessories and it will look great. A bold necklace like the one you posted would be awesome. You could also do a long, drapey necklace. Or do big, dangly earrings. Those shoes look great ~ make for a sleek outfit. You could still go for a more dramatic shoe though, if you wanted.

I like the shoes you picked! Here are a few other blue and green necklaces at a lower price point:

I like the shoes with it too. I might try a long necklace with it as PP mentioned, maybe gold?
