What footwear with this top + skirt combo?

So my skirt is navy blue, pencil style, and the top is v-neck pink merino, quite fitted.

Disclaimer: I need a heel of 6cm but I cannot wear heeled shoes. I can wear wedges shoes or heeled boots though.

This is for work by the way.

What about kitten heels?

IWillSurviveHeyHey · 17/02/2018 06:47

Never I can't wear kitten heels, they look silly on me.

Navy shoe boots? I have a pair that are a few years old and I think they look great with skirts. No idea where you might buy some however

Flat navy pump?

IWillSurviveHeyHey · 17/02/2018 07:06

User potentially that could work but I can't find anything, that's the problem.
Beach no flats would be acceptable I am afraid, 6cm min for me Smile

How about these from Clark's? I'd wear coloured opaque tights with them.

IWillSurviveHeyHey · 17/02/2018 08:55

Hi soup, I'm really at a loss with those boots. It's the peep toe that kills me. I cannot for the life of me show my tights through the peep toe but clearly I am not going to go sans tights.

Ah, yes. I used to feel the same. I prefer a closed toe but can now cope with tights showing as long as there is distinct colour contrast.

Don't know if it has to be exactly 6cm (these are 7.5cm) but they're so comfy, look really good with a skirt and come in navy.

IWillSurviveHeyHey · 17/02/2018 16:36

Kochicoo thank you; I am not convinced about the heel on those shoes but you've made me realise what I need to be looking for is a shoe-boot.

Elledorado the first boot I really like but I couldn't pull off the first one with a skirt as I'm only 5.2". The second one would look okay but not on me, because of the heel. But thank you!

eurgh2018 · 17/02/2018 16:52

No idea why it didn't attach first time!

Why can’t you wear flat shoes?

IWillSurviveHeyHey · 17/02/2018 19:36

I can wear flat shoes, I just look rubbish in them because I'm 5.2" so my outfit doesn't look complete.
