I haven´t found any so far I would recommend

AIMGA · 29/06/2017 13:14

I like the slingbacks burnished , will have a look at Boden.

Thanks anyway margarita, I have left it so late and now panicking Grin

The Boden slingbacks are good

margaritasbythesea · 29/06/2017 13:51

I don´t think you can do better than those but here is what I have found which might be good if Boden are too pricey or sold out.
Dune ruffles

cheap but not leather so might look out of place with lovely dress.

margaritasbythesea · 29/06/2017 13:54

ditto for Dorothy Perkins

Lands End roound toe

Boden still the best!

OP are you looking to order online (one day shipping?) or do you need a bricks-and-mortar option?

AIMGA · 29/06/2017 14:24

Would like bricks &mortar incase online delivery fails me!! (Not mainland!)

AIMGA · 29/06/2017 14:25

I like all the suggestions - thank you. I was hoping for something a bit 'special' but actually I think only a plain shoe will really go Smile will order the Boden ones...fingers crossed for delivery!!

The Boden ones are lovely, and their delivery has never failed me yet so fingers crossed. The dress is beautiful, too.

user1490142285 · 29/06/2017 15:57

OP I'm sure it will all be fine! Is there a local M&S where you could speed over if the Boden shoes don't work? They have a few options in a pinch, mainly ballet flats in navy or metallics and white slingbacks which look a bit groovy/80s but maybe not for everyone.

I am just being belt-and-braces though. Smile

AIMGA · 29/06/2017 18:00

Thanks User may nip to m&s tomorrow as a back up...haven't been to a wedding in ages so quite excited but also worried about not getting it right!

AIMGA · 29/06/2017 18:01

Thanks whooo !

Holly Willoughby wore a similar dress recently with nude shoes.
this pair would be nice.

user1490142285 · 30/06/2017 00:43

AIMGA have a lovely time!

I used to think it was just me who felt worried about not getting it right but eventually found out that many people struggle with wedding guest outfit anxiety. The dress is great, I'm sure you'll look fab.

AIMGA · 30/06/2017 19:28

Thanks User I am a SAHM and sometimes feel like I haven't got a clue when it comes to fashion/wedding etiquette Smile

Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!!

OP posts:
AIMGA · 30/06/2017 19:29

I will give you all a laugh and show you the ones I was going to get before I asked for your advice!! (The flat ones!)

Amiga the toe IN ones are lovely but they might clash with the pattern on the dress.

margaritasbythesea · 01/07/2017 09:36

I wonder what you got op. I hope you're having a lovely time.

fabulousathome · 01/07/2017 10:54

You could add a sparkly shoe clip to plain shoes for the wedding.

AIMGA · 01/07/2017 18:55

Boden didn't arrive in time so a mad dash to Hobbs for these!! Thanks for all the help..I'm pleased I went for blue!!
