Hello, I need advise and I hope you will be able to help me. I buyed a grey long dress a few months ago, but I can't find the good way to where it. I don't have any camera so I can't take pics, but this dress have the exact same cut except the straps of my dress that are the same materiel than the rest of the dress and wider, and the breast part that is divided by simple horizontal stripes in a draped effect (tight around the breast) : It's really soft and chic. So sophisticated that I can't find the good way to wear it as much as I would like. So, have you any advice ? Shoes ? Accessories ? Is there any way so I can where it as a day dress ?

Hmmm, I see lots of bangles and a big bag with lots of colour to contrast the grey. I found these on a fashion website Maybe they'll give you an idea on the kinds of thing to buy? I also found this: Which is another really cute way to wear those kinds of dresses. Maybe a waist belt too just to soften it up

I didn't though about giving the dress some boho/ethnical accessories. It's a nice association. Because, yeah, I tried to associate it with some bright colors but the dress feel so... I don't know.. elegant, that it just seems out of place. But know I understand that it was mostly because it was more retro accessories. Thank you ! And yes, I think a brown high waisted belt will be great with it !

That would looks so chic with a denim jacket, if you turn up the sleeves once or twice and wear a watch or a statement bangle, it will look amazing. That is how I wore my mazi dress this summer. Don't forget the gladiator sandals, their bang on trend.

The full lengh leggings wouldn't show as the dress is really long.
But, yeah, statement piece of jewellery and killer heels, that look, I already found it. But it's definitively a sophisticated look. Not something I can wear to go to the restaurant, or anywhere else but a well dressed party (you know, with girls in gowns and men in suit and bow tie).

I think that the cool thing about grey is that you can wear the craziest colours with it without looking dumb. Why don't you go to a play or a Venissage? It would be perfect!
