Clarks did have satin peep-toe and round-toe strappy shoes in black and a dusky pink, also matching bags, but their website is all flash - this is the only link I can find - sorry.
Worth a look, esp. in the sale.

MrsBadger · 12/01/2006 11:43

that site also had the peep toe ones .

Not sure if these from M&S are the sort of thing you're after?

What colour is your dress?

nailpolish · 12/01/2006 12:28

the dress is pink and black, well its not really a dress its a top and skirt

i like the ones from marks, good colour, would love peep toe

the skirt is a flippy thing, and the top is kind of bardot style but not OTT

JackieNo · 12/01/2006 12:41

Glad I could help . Not sure about handbags - if you'll have children with you won't a clutch bag be a pain? If not, they're really elegant.
One here with straps (hover over it to see details).
This one's a bit 50s, maybe?
Only been to one website so far...

JackieNo · 12/01/2006 15:39

This is pretty - too much though?
Also, clutch bags are v small - don't know about you, but I always have loads of stuff I want to take with me .

JackieNo · 12/01/2006 15:46

Or this one ?

nailpolish · 13/01/2006 10:10

hi again jackie, sorry i havent been around to chat!

i love the beaded one, but i definitely wont match the skirt/top, the last one in debenhams is really really nice, will go with the shoes hopefully!

im going into town tomorrow so im going to have a look at them 'in the flesh'

you should be a personal shopper! thanks again!

im also going to get a huge black pair of shades, fifties/sixties style as the wedding is v posh

Hi NP - sorry - missed your reply too! I have a friend whose husband calls me 'the shopping devil' as whenever we go shopping together she always buys loads and I buy practically nothing - I love shopping vicariously . Hope you find something tomorrow. Shades sound great - v glamorous. I'm on the hunt for a new bag tomorrow too, but something that I can use for every day. Nice to have a quest, rather than just wandering around the shops looking at everything and wanting to buy it all . Good hunting.
