in terms of other accessories, consider:
16-18 inch (short) necklace (pearls?)
shawl with some pattern in it (flowers?) Or a cardigan in a pastel color would be pretty, too.
you could pin a silk flower at the waist where the dress ties shut. It would be very '30s/retro, but it could be cute. keep jewelry low-key and classic if you do this - pearl earrings/necklace should be about it.
sparkly bangle bracelets would be fun with the bare arms
long dangly/chandalier earrings (but not with a necklace)

Thank you all for the input -- it was very helpful. With your ideas in mind, I went to my favorite shoe store and found a gorgeous pair of sandals (Unlisted by Kenneth Cole) in a pale blue that has lavendar and silver tones. I was recently given a beautiful Alpaca wrap from Peru that has both the dress color and the sandal color. I also have a silver short-chained necklace with a blue opal (containing the dress and sandal tones) and silver Elsa Perretti shell earrings. I will have to carry another handbag but I have another pretty antique bag with all the same colors in little flowers.
Oh, and I also bought the sandals in black!
