What to Wear: Pink Dress

Brightly colored dresses can be a handful. The trick is to tone them down with neutrals when you're out during the day. In the evening, play them up with chunky jewelry. Here is Diana's request:

I just bought a dress and I have NO idea what to wear with it. At all. I'm open to almost anything but heels with too much height might be tough because I'll be sporting my 9 month old baby on the hip and don't want to be wobbly. It will be worn primarily to church.
The dress is more pink/rose than the picture shows and alone it's a bit too much.

Dress - A knit dress in orchid on sale at Nordstrom.
Jacket - A feminine little tweedy blazer is a great match with this dress or with jeans during the week.
Earrings - Green to compliment the purple and browns.
Purse - A classic satchel with room for baby gear is a steal for $15.
Shoes - Wine colored kitten heels with a bow.
