My school is having a ball in a few weeks and I've decided on a dress and shoes, but I can't pick the color for either.
The dress: http://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/application/prodDisplay/?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=3E-193557&page=1&cgname=OSCLODRSVIL&rfnbr=2667 (comes in red AND black; click swatches to change the colors)
The red shoes: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=6h49c8&s=2
The black shoes: http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=279720&CategoryID=13614&LinkType=EverGreen
Any advice, opinions, and/or beauty tips would also be appreciated. Thanks so much.

Red. And those red shoes go perfectly...

Wow! What a stunning dress! And the shoes are both great!
I think the red dress for you...... it will certainly make a bold statement.......black is worn way too often anyway!
Make sure you have a lovely matching lipstick and paint your nails in the same gorgeous red.....(toes for sure!) maybe finger nails in a clear gloss!
Jewellery-wise..... earings or a necklace, not both, unless they are all very small......
Or perhaps a lovely clip (with diamante) for your hair...
I dont know if you'd need a matching colour bag....... that might be too much...... maybe a black clutch and then you could have a black clip to bring it all together!
Have a fairy tale evening..... Im sure you will look and feel like a princess!

Red!!
Red looks great for your skin, it will make you stand out, abd it will look great on anyone! I have the same dress and i love it!! For the shoes I would say black or better yet, gold!! Gold and read look sooooo good together for your skin. For the ball make sure your make up looks gentle and natural. (look at VS models makeup)
Hair- if long wear it half up and half down with gems in it (gold is possible maybe even with a few loose curls
if shorter wear it down and again add gems
Good luck
P.S. A girl can NEVER have too much bling :)

The red colour will really pop against your skin tone. And I love how the red shoes have the same wrap theme to them as the dress (which I love btw, I've been wanting that dress for some time now)

the purple dress, purple is like the hot color right now, and the black shoes or the black dress with the red or black shoes, i would go for red though, black will look really good against your skin but purple would be the best

The red will look great on you, it will show your skin tone, and your body shape, If picking the red dress,I don't recommend you red shoes, too much red i suggest gold or black or other color but red and red shoes doesnt match very well for your skin color.(if using the red dress and red shoes) but the red dress will look gorgeous on you.

If you look good in red, wear it! People [ guys ] will be able to find you in the crowd, and it stands out among all the other black dresses.
PS: buy both shoes! They are great, and I love the dress!
