I thought I would do an individual post on my "Uhura" costume - in quotes because I don't remotely resemble Zoe Saldana, but because I like her outfit so much, I thought I would do an individual post on it.
Figuring once again that Anovos could do it way better than me, I bought their red NuTrek dress. https://anovos.com/star-trek-the-movie/womens-uniform-dresses It's really well made with a fitted inner layer that gives the dress structure. It makes it hard to go over the head a bit, but I like it having support, I think it's more flattering that way. These dresses are sized slightly smaller than the TOS Anovos dresses, as a warning, so check the sizing guide.
Apparently what Uhura wore in the film is most similar to the DKNY Dia boots, but with a side zip, not a back zip. The Rebel has the side zip but the wrong velcro flap. I was able to pick up a pair of the DKNY Dia boots on ebay, so put a watch up if you're looking for them.
See the discussion on boots here: http://starfleet1701st.yuku.com/topic/1212/ST-Women-s-Boots#.UXYPjIJAvx8

I also acquired a pair of Uhura's earrings. From the first movie, she wore Alexis Bittar's lucite "Pod" earrings in red and silver. I have the silver ones.
