wrap dresses look really good on pretty much anyone... flash wrap dress in jade
might be a bit too much $ though, for what you're lookin for

i think metallic or sparkly shoes would look really good with it, better than just black pumps i think... adding a little extra punch. i like these: starlet shoes

i like their tees, but not their politics. the founder, dov charney, is pretty sleazey... (businessweek article on dove charney)

i prefer alternative apparel.

loyal army has some nice bags with really cute patterns
relatively inexpensive, too

this brazilian company called melissa has got some great jellies
i own a pair in pretty much every style... the company's really eco conscious (they recycle any overstock styles into new styles) too.

longer tops (like tunics) are good for hiding hips, so long as you balance it out on the bottom with some great shoes (like those boots) that draw attention downwards. layering tops is cool too, just be careful about layering a shorter darker top over a longer lighter top because that creates a highlighted line around your midsection that could make it look wider.

highwaisted dresses and skirts look great on everybody, especially if you have some hips because it creates an hourglass figure that makes your waist look teeny tiny.

i think you could probably wear those boots with just about anything and they'd look great.

super soft wrap dress at edge of urge (comes in a bunch of different colors)

i think they look good with pretty much anything... my fav is with a skirt and knee highs tho.

Edge of Urge has got a lot of stuff from indie designers, a lot of it's on the pricier side but there's a few brands that aren't quite as expensive (though i suppose it depends on your definition of expenisve). less expensive shoe brands: pink studio (updated 50s style shoes), melissa (jellies, some newer styles are made from recycled older styles)... loyal army has a bunch of cute tees that aren't incredibly pricey

Edge of Urge (www.edgeofurge.com) has got some cute stuff in it, though a lot of it's a little more high end. Tons of cute tees, lookit!
