Fashion assistance
We are going to a wedding this weekend in Florida. Last night I went and bought a new dress to wear. All of my dresses that fit and I like are black and I didn't want to wear a black dress to a daytime Florida summer wedding. So I bought a yellow shirtdress at Marshalls. I can't find the exact dress online, so I will show you some dresses that are similar.
Here is one from Target.
Here is one from Nordstrom.
And lastly here is one from J.Crew.
The problem is, the dress came with this hideous plastic brown snake skin belt. I think the dress looks kind of blah without a belt of some sort, but I don't know what to replace it with. The belt it came with it wide, probably about 3 inches. Should I get something that I can tie in a bow? or just another belt that isn't so terrible looking? Suggestions of stores to check out would be appreciated. If I get a chance I will take some pictures tonight. Thanks.

Hrm...I love shirtwaist dresses. They're so cute and flattering and classic. I definitely think you need a belt, and since you're short on time, I'd suggest something like a wide grosgrain ribbon (easy to find, easy to play with color) or an obi sash - I found an example here. I like the cream colored one in the middle, though black would look nice too. I'd try Nordstrom, Uniquities in Chapel Hill, and Belk. Or, if you have time, there are tons of stores in Raleigh: Uniquities, Beanie + Cecil, Gena Chandler (or anything at North Hills.) Email me if you want directions or anything!! Good luck - post a picture of how it turns out.
