Have my eye on gorgeous nude heels for a wedding, but what colour dress will go well?

or more to the point what colours should I avoid?

I'm not the bride btw.

Is Oyster too close that it's a no-no?

What's your colouring?

Can you link to the shoes?

I would probably avoid oyster with nude shoes, but that's mainly because it would make me look washed out. If you had dark hair and a killer tan, then perhaps it would be ok...

This dress looks very nice with the nude heels, so maybe something like that (but a bit cheaper!).

dexter73 · 25/04/2011 16:18

This?

sorky · 25/04/2011 16:30

was thinking of this dress or similar.

(red hair, pale skin- typically Autumn)

Have norks, don't suit anything too near neckline, but thanks, dresses are pretty.

'course, norkage not really suitable for wedding either Hmm

Have a £250 budget for dress.

If that Phase Eight one looks crap, I'm open to suggestions! Grin

I have similar shoes and have worn them to weddings with cream and navy stripey dress.
Wear them a lot for work with my two navy work dresses.
So, navy!

sorky · 25/04/2011 16:38

yes, navy suits me. Is it too dark for a wedding?

They would look fine with that dress IMO and the outfit would suit your colouring well.

TethersEnd · 25/04/2011 17:11

This would look lovely in either colour...

If you can wear red...

Very nice outfit. Would suggest bold purple or orange nails a statement cocktail ring and lipstick color.

I also think an orangy red dress would work very well. It this case, big hair, nude nails and make up and well defined eye make up.
