Need help/input

I have a special dinner coming up

The dress code is formal
I have these very very very stunning pair of silver earings set with aquamarines which i wanto wear.

However im stumped with what to wear 'em with??

If they were set with garnets, i’d wear a LBD with a pair of heels and be done with but im not sure light blue stones would look good on black.

I’ve worn them once with a white outfit and they didnt really stand out that much so white is out of the question.

someone please give me some ideas.
I want the outfit to be very simple but have no idea what color it should be

Re: Need help/input

omgg the'r loveliessssssssss
well yeah u'r right they wont go with black but what about turquoise only if u wear a teenyweeny lighter shade...

Re: Need help/input

green is the new black… :clown:

they might stand out if u wear a dark blue and look al navy uniform cool with hair in a clean gelled bun like this .. if it is a very conservative evening http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2925318/0~2376776~2374327~2374331~6008991?mediumthumbnail=Y&origin=category&searchtype=&pbo=6008991&P=2
a silvery green for something more fancy ..

Re: Need help/input

They're gorgeous. How big are they? Are you going to wear a dress only? Can you wear slacks or a skirt + top? How about a white skirt? one of those a-line, knee/calf-length, breezy very feminine skirts with killer heels (perhaps silver/stone studded ones)... and a simple light blue top with a little bit of embroidery/beading on it? I'm sure wiht this outfit you want the clothes to be simple but elegant and let the accessories speak for themselves...

Oh this one is nice! Even as a salmon/light pink it’ll look nice, because it will give a contrast..

Re: Need help/input

Im going to wear silver heels studded with blue stones with straps that tie around your ankle.

So if i wear a skirt its just going to be too jumbled up..

Im meeting these people for the very first time and i know there will be a lot of people there with very very sharp eyes and selfish opinions. Im not calling 'em bad but put it this way its kinda like meeting the inlaws and the first impression counts.
Maybe they arent this bad but i’ve been warned :clown:

So i dont wanto go all made up.

The earings are quite long but they sit right above the shoulder so they dont touch the shoulder at all.

Im thinking of wearing a ‘not so’ plunging neckline, sleevless dress.

I hope the place where the dinner is held is got a very good heating system or i’ll freeze to death :frowning:

hin33 green?? really??

Sara pink???

Re: Need help/input

No green won't go with them... black, blue (obviously it matters what type of blue it is), brown kind of colors will go...oh and a plain (not printed) kind of skirt should look good with them.

Re: Need help/input

well i wud say if d earring r blue u cn go for a blue n black contrast however in d end i think blue will look d best. also wt kinda of clothes r u lookin to wear, if u have blue shoes and those earrings already hw abt white and blue as an outfit. a nice white skirt with a blueish top . or a blue and white dress..

p.s. good luck

Re: Need help/input

Yeah pinK! The contrast would look nice...

Re: Need help/input

I dont know Sara, thats going to be a little bit daring esp if im going to live for the rest of my life with choosing pink when meeting 'em for the first time. :mudhosh:

I have yet to discuss this with his mum, see what she says.

I love bright colors, im hanging for navy blue

Re: Need help/input

actually I was also thinking of navy blue... go with navy blue...

Re: Need help/input

lighter shade of turqouise or light sea bluish green...............
if no den try light glass pink ...tell me r u wearin it wid western dress or eastern..

Re: Need help/input

ok so u have earings and sandals … but u didn’t tell the kind of outfit u’re interested in … my only idea is wear outfit that has colors to go with earings like wear either slacks or capri pants in soft silvery gray or black color + wear stylish metallic or silk top which matches with the color of stone in earings , like say in soft torquise color … no ideas for dresses as i don’t wear those

like this style in top would look good with the earings http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=Casual%20Tops&product%5Fid=2039385258&Page=1

but the color of top has to be either of the three

hope u’ll get it

Re: Need help/input

nice earrings! i think they'd look stunning with a black or a deep yellow dress. i love yellow with turquoise or black with turquoise combos.

Re: Need help/input

a light torquoise would be good or maybe even a pale peachy pink with hints of that bluish color from the earrings
green sounds good too

Re: Need help/input

navy blue will be your safest choice..silver blue/ shoes will go nice too .. pink green and turquise would b daring ... so choose ur pick..

:)

Re: Need help/input

these r really pretty...as i set my 1st look at them pink is the color that came 2 my mind...wat do u think?

Re: Need help/input

tp, im wearing it with a western outfit, ive already worn 'em with a desi outfit, a light blue shalwar with a white kameez and white and blue duppatta. But that was a day function and i could get away with white, this is at night and very formal so i dont think im going to look good wearing pink or white.

shweetdreamz, i love torq with red and black and yellow combination but these are just light blue aquamarines so they wont look good :frowning:

Thankyou girlies. Im hanging towards black but i have my mind open yet to ideas

Re: Need help/input

^^ Nice!

Ya go for black or navy blue.

Re: Need help/input

Thankyou for the input you all.

I ended up wearing blue in the end.
