Dress Help

So I bought a dress for my niece's Christening the last weekend in March. I really love it- I'd been eyeing it for awhile but they didn't have my size, x-small. Well, they got it back in stock and I snatched it up right away. Chat Icon It's so cute and pretty- it feels like a very tea party dress because it has crinoline in the skirt. But because of the crinoline, it's also short. Not like can't-bend-over short, but short enough considering this is a holy event. Chat Icon It hits about mid-thigh. Here's a picture of me trying it on in the story- don't judge me for my pants around my ankles, I was too lazy to take off my boots. Chat Icon It's hard to tell the length in the picture because the skirt poofs out. Anyway, it's navy and tan/brown. I figured I'd wear nude pumps, but I feel like I need tights for some reason. But if I need tights, what color? Navy? I feel like this would be weird. And I don't do nude tights. Period. What say you?

Re: Dress Help

If you don't do nude or any shade of it, I think your only option is to go with Navy.

Thank you! I know the floral print isn't so popular around here, but I love it. It's so girly! Do you think the navy tights would look okay with the nude pumps?

I love it. Do nude and nude. If the crinoline has 2 layers of pouf, removing a layer may drop it a bit without getting rid the pouf. My mom is a seamstress Chat Icon

Re: Dress Help

I wouldn't do navy tights and nude pumps. I think it would take away from the dress. I'd do all nude. Don't worry if it is short, as long as it is not a deep cleavage it would be good Chat Icon

Navy or peach (if the flowers are peach, which it looks like in the picture).
