Ok so I'm off to a wedding & have bought this

www.isabellaoliver.com/womens-clothing/uk/600/dresses/DR432.html

which I love, the colour is great, a kinda pinky red, now I need some shoes...should be easy right? ...but can't find any I LOVE.

These are ok

but I'm not so keen on platform heels as I think it makes them uncomfortable.....any suggestions?

muchas gracias

Hmm didn't work! Try googling 'schuh mouse twist heel'

Lovely in pink, terrific in turquoise!

Mushroom's shoes

There seems to be a real shortage of good red heels this season, buggers. But, dare I say, red is a bit of an unusual choice for with an almost red dress - IMHO

black stunners Oh, here in red for no money

purple

black patent

love these. might work, might not

I have the same dress and had trouble finding something to match. Ended up with these which I thought were a little dull at first but could wear them for hours.

MrsLettuce · 12/05/2012 19:50

Soft gold would be fab

Pelicano · 12/05/2012 20:01

Yes agree, gold shoe/sandal better. I was looking in winter.

MrsLettuce · 12/05/2012 20:42

Myself I'd wear it with purple (although there's not much about ATM), turquoise or or gold. Gold bag with the colored shoes / sandals, purple or turquoise bag with gold, but then I'm an odd little bird.

(claps hands excitedly!!)...definately got me thinking along different lines now.
I like the idea of a contrasting colour or two. I could only think of nude as an alternative to red but thought it might be a bit boring. I'd never have thought of purple but I like it. I love the phase 8 clutch in particular
I love black patent heels, but I wear several different pairs for work so that would make me steer away from them. (Will try them on though...I may be pre judging)

If you love the phase eight clutch I'd steer away from purple shoes, those are nice though. That bag comes in another colour, which might work. The purple would be much nicer with the dress though.

MrsLettuce · 12/05/2012 21:16

these would be good considering the texureal details (gathering effect of dress and suedeiness of suede).

I guess these are too wild for you

<a class="break-all" href="//hwww.dune.co.uk/carlie-d-cone-heeled-peep-toe-court-prodcarlied98coral/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">coral

this sort of green would work (but) maybe (not) these particular one
