Bridesmaid Style: Simple Black Dress

Q. Hi Jordan, I have chosen this dress from ASOS to be a bridesmaid in my friend’s wedding, but am torn between keeping it at its current length or hemming it so that it hits me right above the knees. Could you offer any styling suggestions?

A. I love that dress, and actually think there’s no hemming necessary: it’s very elegant in that midi length. In keeping with the slightly retro, Audrey Hepburn-ish feel, I’d say go for a simple slingback pump in gold (’cause it’s a party!) and add a couple of slim bangles…and then go the Angelina Jolie route and add some emerald earrings for pop (and to give a nod to Spring).

P.S. For those of you who are as into this dress as I am, just an FYI: it’s $90 (!), and also comes in hot pink. Love love love.

Product info after the jump.

J. Crew bangles, Stella & Dot earrings (or try these if you want something a little fancier), Kate Spade slingbacks.
