Beautiful!

But you do need a simply, longer necklace at least. Its not so much a cleavage thing (but yes I am straight, and that is a wonderful bust there. Fantastic and gorgeous!) But the bodice of the dress is plain, and so are the straps. So it could do with a little something. It would be different if there was decoration on the fabric.

Absolutely lovely.

I think a necklace right across the hollow of your throat. With a dangle-ly bit or not. Earrings with a little length would show off your long neck. With this skirt (compared to the other one) if you go with a bracelet keep it delicate. I think the shoes you describe are perfect. Very Marlyn. :)

Reference verified: still hot.

...oh, you meant the dress...took me a minute to notice it. :)

Lovely! I concur with all the comments that a necklace is required. I think something that falls below the hollow of the throat would be good.

Always remember

Exactly where my face lands when you are wearing heels.

I agree with the majority of the people here. You need something simple and pretty, possibly elegant, to accentuate the beauty of what is already there, tie it all together. Absolutely gorgeous either way, though.

Beautiful!

the dress is nice too.

I see what you mean about no getting away from the cleavage. I think there's no need to draw more attention, I reaffirm my vote for a short, even choker length necklace. A short bauble hanging down would be okay too, but no need for something to extend into the cleavage.

Looks great!

HOT. For accessorizing, I highly recommend a fire extinguisher, for safety reasons.

I would almost wear long, long earrings and a bracelet, and leave your neck bare - it's gorgeous enough to be all the decoration it needs on its own. However, I also really like the necklace with the falls at the end that you were talking about, and think that would look fabulous as well.

So hawt, and this from a straight girl! I think necklace. Delicate, though.

*LOVE* the dress. Those look so good, and have always looked good, and I miss them. They're just not worn enough anymore, IMHO.

The beauty within shines marvelously through. Beauty.

You and the dress look mahvelous! Simply mahvelous.

I'm....entranced!

The dress just enhances the beauty that is already there. It is like watching the final brush strokes on a masterpiece. I can't wait to see the end result.
