Question
I’ve bought a strappy black dress with white spots and a big black bow at the front for a formal I’m attending in two weeks. What accessories should I match with it?

Answer
Your choice sounds fabulous—very classic chic. Try to keep the accessories simple and black. Match a pair of strappy black high heels (Shoe Biz, Mollini, etc.) with a plain black evening clutch (Myer or DJs), then borrow your Mum’s pearl stud earrings, finish off the look with a wide black plastic headband (Diva, Equip, or Sportsgirl) and put your hair up in a soft, slightly messy, updo to give this classic outfit a younger edge.
