The Dress

Erin McDermott Earrings
Gold-vermeil teardrops threaded with pearls and quartz are delicate and bold all at once.

Joe Fresh Dress
When the shape is tailored, as with this cotton-and-polyester A-line, a white dress can go to work or out at night.

To buy: $69, joefresh.com for stores.

White House/Black Market Belt
To dress things up, go beyond the pale with metallic accents, like a faux-leather bow belt.

To buy: $44, whbm.com.

Nila Anthony Clutch
This hardcover-size sequin bag looks smart with white. And with three compart-ments for organizing, it’s smart on the inside, too.

Nine West Heels
Snakeskin-print faux-leather stilettos are more versatile than you might think. Try them with brights as well.
