Wrap for long dress

[DeckLife]

I have a long black dress from Chico's that has silver accents. This is my main formalwear item. I have 3 black wraps I can wear with it but I'd like something silvery. I am too busty for a shrug. Is an actual jacket with sheer and opaque design at all appropriate? One I am considering has 3/4-length sleeves and is short, maybe below my waist. (I am short.) It has soft lines and no collar.

I'd have to see both items...but you may find you don't NEED a wrap at all! I always bring something, but have never needed it!

OK, I didn't want to put a link up for fear that the item would sell out. But now I've ordered it (yay!). See http://www.chicos.com/store/browse/product.jsp?maxRec=84&pageId=1&productId=570104905&viewAll=&prd=Travelers+Collection+Wave+Applique+Margo+Jacket&subCatId=&color=&fromSearch=&inSeam=&posId=15&catId=cat40010&cat=Travelers&onSale=&colorFamily=&maxPg=6&size=

 

It will go with this dress: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-CHICOS-NALA-BLACK-MAXI-DRESS-GREAT-RESORT-WEAR-Sz-1-8-10-/390795014562?pt=US_CSA_WC_Dresses&hash=item5afd32b1a2

 

I am 5'1", so the dress is full length on me. In Chico's I wear size 3. Opinions welcome. I can always wear this jacket in other ways, so don't hold back!

I think those will work beautifully together. I really like the silver jacket with the texture and shine. Very nice.

No wonder you were afraid the jacket would sell out...it's beautiful! I think that will look really chic with the dress.

Thanks so much!

I think the combo will work beautifully! I love both pieces and would wear them both, alone or combined.

I have a raspberry jacket that I wear over my black Jersey dress. It's about the same length. I love it.

I have a lime green peplum jacket that I might try with the black dress. It's a find from a consignment store!
