Based on the shoulder pads and the vintage look of the price tag, the dress is from the 80s era.<div><br /></div><div>I know it doesn't look like much in the photo, but it is a lovely shade of purple with subtle geometric patterning. The dress zips up the back and once it's on the body, the waist cinches in and creates a nice silhouette. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>For winter, I am going to wear it with black tights and black platform booties, but am stumped as to how else to accessorize it. </b></div><div><br /></div><div><b>What would you suggest? Gold jewelry? Bracelet? Short necklace or long? Should I belt it? Keep the shoulder pads, or take them out? </b></div><div><br /></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7908671754119920501-4487914239552202324?l=gimmestyle.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Gimme Stylehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04763605645551502858noreply@blogger.com4
