You might want to post this in the wardrobe thread. You'll be much more likely to get help if it's there. Also, a picture of the dress would be helpful.

Wear shoes that don't have a strap around/across the ankle. The only strap across the top of the foot should be over the toes--this makes your leg look much longer and you look much taller. I hope that helps!

I think silver always looks great with purple!

Nude Patent may also help elongate the legs I agree a pic may help

I totally second the suggestion for nudes. They make your legs look longer.

One can never go wrong with classy black pumps. With purple satin, I think the impact would be WOW!
