Glam flat shoes

Help please! I am going to my cousins wedding in a few weeks and my (shorter) husband has banned me from wearing heels. Does that mean I am limited to wearing trousers? I am thinking about resurrecting some old outfits which I may squeeze back into two children later. Either black calf length floaty skirt with black and gold corset type top or pale gold and cream strait knee length skirt with matching corseted top. Have a gorgeous sheer gold knitted cardi for either outfit. All from coast.

Am in a terrible mummy rut and don't really manage pretty, more smart and sensible :0(
Am trying to lose a few pounds, will get a tan and a hair cut and colour too, is now the time to try an adventurous colour?
Looking forward to your advice ladies. Am top heavy size 14, 5'6...

I would say if you husband has banned you, then find the highest shoes possible and wear them Grin

I'm a bit of a broken record when it comes to recommending French Sole but here goes: French Sole are gorgeous! Totally glam.

Ha ha quite right! Not banned as such but I know he would feel uncomfortable and I want plenty of pics without having to take my shoes off first Wink

What about these Kurt Geiger ones? There's a 25% off code as well - GRAZIA25 I think.

Great, thanks for the suggestions. Now to dig out outfit and see if I'm kidding myself! Have had brandy for fortitude

Hmmm, off to think, skirt is a 12 not a 14 but isn't far off fitting!! Top is a 14 and no-where near budging the zip...anyone got a midriff I could borrow?
