Which shoes with this dress?

Just picked up this navy dress for a wedding in May, am going to probably change the gold belt for a silver one as all my other jewellery/watch etc is silver.

Do you think I should go for navy shoes? Or would that look too matchy?

And I've got a black clutch but can you put black bag with navy dress?

I think red shoes with navy (like in the pic) would look great, think maybe navy shoes might be a bit matchy and too much. Red would break it up. what style of shoe are you looking for? nice dress btw

I wouldn't put a black bag with a navy dress. I would keep the gold belt and add some gold jewellery and nude shoes probably.

AbsDuCroissant · 09/03/2011 14:08

I agree with either nude or red. Or even gold

leopard print?

Don't mind which type of shoes, I quite like the flowery girly sandals but not sure if they'll go with the dress....

Would these be too much?

Oooh hadn't thought of leopard print....that might look quite cool. With what colour bag though?

I would say contrasting shoes rather than matching ones.
I think metallics look good with navy esp in the summer.

AbsDuCroissant · 09/03/2011 14:52

Actually, I think those flowery ones could work, with gold bag and accessories.

berri · 09/03/2011 15:35

Can gold bag/accessories work if you have a silver watch/wedding rings etc?

Questions questions for me today :o

I'm going with yes

berri · 09/03/2011 18:56

Anyone else going with yes/no?

I wouldn't personally to be honest!

ellangirl · 09/03/2011 21:22

just don't wear a silver watch, your wedding rings won't matter. Think the dress is lovely!

Maddikins · 09/03/2011 21:25

I def think gold looks nicer with navy so I'd keep the belt, get a gold bracelet/cuff, a statement or pendant necklace and a metallic or gold clutch. That should look fine with your rings and watch.

Shoes, I think gold, nude or leopard print, if leopard I'd stick to a gold or neutral clutch bag.

gold shoes

Thank you - love the first shoes you linked to. I'd be gutted not to wear my watch, I love it!

But agree it might look funny with gold bracelet one side & silver watch the other...

On the hunt now for gold bag & shoes, hurrah!
