Fashion Tips/Dressing up a shift dress

Question

Pink dress
Hi, I bought a hot pink shift dress to wear to my son's outdoor wedding in July.  (He'll be in a tux, she'll be in a white gown), but otherwise a very small wedding.  But it needs something, I don't know what. Some friends say pearls and white shoes are enough, some say brown and gold belt (in attached picture) and brown sandals which I think isn't dressy enough, but I can't tell what would be best. Help!

Answer
Hello Nancy,

Congrates on your sons wedding! You've got a nice dress... It would be nice if you wore it with this belt and with a golden or brown peep toe shoes. you can wear it perhaps with a stomach belt (i mean the fancy ones not the ones you wear them for excersizing!) I prefer if you wore this dress with a pearls and a white shoe and perhaps a hat! It will look fancy!

Thanks
JUlia
