Accessorize me plz

WasNotWas

So I am doing my first technical review of a solution I designed face-to-face with a customer this week. All the sales people wear suits, so I am going to wear a dress (picture attached). It hits right at the knee and is navy and cream.

My question to you all...what shoes should I wear? Usually I wear these brown loafer wedges, but they are all scuffed and don't really make me look polished. I will be wearing the dress on the plane but can change into any shoes if needed for the meeting, and I will only be in the meeting room. I won't be walking a warehouse or on my feet for any length of time.

Suggestions please

Do you have any navy or nude pumps? If I'm wearing a dress when my male counterparts are wearing suits, I try to wear pumps to dress it up a bit.

Round toe? I'm struggling with heel height too...the dress is long enough a kitten heel looks silly but anything higher and I will be the tallest one in the room

I would wear pumps too if men are in suits. Be the tall, sophisticated lady in the room

I agree with @subliminalrabbit‌, pointy toed navy pumps and a statement necklace. I think you can go with as high/low of heel you want. Wear the extra height with confidence and you'll look fabulous! I don't think that dress needs a belt with that waistline... But maybe that's just me.

Pointy nude pumps. Don't be afraid of being tall - I would give anything to be the tallest in a room for work rather than the shorty!

For business, if you are in a conservative industry, I wouldn't do a chunky necklace. When I visit clients, I wear a similar dress with nude pumps, stud earrings, and a small pendant necklace. I do a small diamond pendant necklace.

I have a thin silver necklace with the letters T and B like in the rungs so there is no charm that I was going to wear with silver ball earrings. I can't fem it up too much because these are warehouse guys and I want them looking at my work not how hot I am

But really, who am I kidding? I will post pics Thursday. Hopefully after I have won the business!!

Going against the grain... I vote RED shoes!

Red shoes and a red chunky bead necklace would be AMAZING.


I am going to def steal this for an office look. It might be a bit too bold for a customer presentation

I'm terrible at this so I have no suggestions but I just wanted to say I love the dress!
