Cotton Maxi Dress

I just bought this vintage bright red cotton jersey maxi dress from a thrift store and i am altering it right now to be a low v neck. It looks a little like this;

but it is bright red and has a pleated bottom part. I just want to know what you would wear on top to make it look more casual; i am already wearing muted bronze gladiator sandals on the bottom. Scarves, jackets, belts, jewelery etc? Pls provide links. My goal here is to not look from afar like I'm trying to wear a red evening gown around town just for kicks :)

cute dress.

also- maybe instead of gladiators sometime you could switch for flipflops.. that will also tone the look down some.

I am modest and don't like wearing a very thin strap nor something too low. Are there any cap sleeve maxi dresses? They are so comfortable but everyone one I have seen is either a halter or sleeveless.

I haven't seen any cap sleeve ones, but you can definitely wear a t-shirt under them. A lot of the girls at my church wear them with a white t-shirt, and it's very cute!

All the post offices are closed till after bank holiday monday so i can't check. I found apostage estimator but i need the weight.

It probably looks heavier than it is, anyone have a similar one or know approx how much they weigh each?

thanks

I tried to fold it up in my mind, but its hard not knowing how thick it is.
however, I would say 3 kilos tops.Sorry I could not do better. lol

Price: $47.61 $22.99

Made of soft cotton
Elastic tube top

the dress is obviously dressy, white cotton and i was thinking of wearing tasteful but elegant wedges but am stuck for the type of bag.

I think that a small white clutch purse would be sort of elegant and it'd go with the whole wedding thing

I'm in college in St. Louis, and it is going to be 64 degrees tomorrow. I just bought this maxi dress and it is of cotton material and my friends and I are in the middle of a debate about whether I can wear it to school tomorrow. What do you think?
It is halter style, but it doesn't show cleavage.

It's college! There are no rules anymore. Wear what you want. Maybe your friends are jealous?
