Hi all

I have bought this dress

www.gap.eu/browse/product.do?cid=66915&vid=1&pid=839858

Which I love but don't know about shoes to go with it? Want to look as good as possible for a girlie night out for my 49th in September, newly single and feeling a bit fragile at the moment so need to feel I am looking my best! Thanks

Nice dress.

I'd suggest something with a bit of platform for extra height/comfort, and probably a style with closed toes so you can wear tights if it's cold.

What kind of heel height, i.e. how are you with very high heels? And how are your legs - if you have good legs then you can get away with straps round the ankle etc, if not, I'd suggest something court style/low cut.

Thanks! I am 5 7, legs are slim, like the idea of a closed toe

I'm a similar height to you and love these.

Just enough heel to feel good but very easy to walk in due to hidden platform.

Nice dress and great price. I'd a thick chunky cuff if I were made of money

sorry, just seen you were asking about shoes, not accessories... its late, I need to go to bed!

Suede would be nice... too high?

Thanks love the Office ones! Although I like the idea of really high heels I cannot walk in them Blush
