    Default What to wear with this dress?

    I picked up this dress in store today for a great price ($28, but it was final sale.).

    What color cardigan would go with this dress? What color tights can I wear with it?

    One of the reviews said she paired it with a denim jacket for a casual look.

    Thanks!

    Very cute. Not sure about tights. I'd probably wear it in seasons that I don't need tights.

    Based on the colorful statement necklace paired with it, I bet any pop of color cardigan would work.

    Really cute dress! I agree with snugglebuggles on the no tights.

    Is the dress more brown or black? It reminded me of this post with the blue pairing. Just skip the plaid part. :-p

    Purple could also be nice. http://www.puttingmetogether.com/201...y-magenta.html

    Cute dress! It's very versatile and I think it could be styled many different ways. I like the idea of a bright cardi, maybe fuchsia depending on your coloring? Mustard could be good too. Depending on how bold you want to be I might do bright tights as well...but not the same color For something fun, but not as bold, I'd do an ivory fishnet. Brown or black tights could be good too. You could go pastel with the cardi too - I'd lean towards blush or peach since it's brown/ivory. But I'm not really a pastel kind of girl.

    Thanks for the great suggestions! I have several bright cardis that I think could go with it. I'm the worst at putting things together so I like getting suggestions.
