About to order this dress I think after what feels like weeks of searching. In a quandary about shoes though - any suggestions? Colour?
It's for a Scottish October wedding, all in one venue very naice hotel so don't think I need a wrap or a jacket?
My mind is about to blow 😂

Ooh that's pretty. I'd go with with a delicate black court x

pumpkinyael · 11/09/2018 23:12

Such a pretty dress! :)

Would you want to wear heels or flats? I think it also depends on your other accessories... But you probably can't go wrong with black black, closed toe shoes.

ShirleyPhallus · 11/09/2018 23:15

Gorgeous dress!

High black pointy toed stiletto court shoes

SleepingStandingUp · 11/09/2018 23:15

Oh that's pretty.

Can you find a lacy black heel?

allthesoddingdresses · 11/09/2018 23:16

It's looks black doesn't it but the description says navy so am assuming it's a dark or French navy?

I think I'll need to wear heels as will look like a short dumpling if not.

Have no accessories planned at all - need all the help I can get!

I'd say a simple black or yellow or red court.

allthesoddingdresses · 11/09/2018 23:17

It is lovely isn't it - I've been torn! It's my amazing brothers wedding and I want to look and feel good Blush

Nude court shoes?

glagdy · 11/09/2018 23:40

I'd go with Rex personally

glagdy · 11/09/2018 23:40

Red lol!!!

pumpkinyael · 12/09/2018 07:33

I agree, red would be better than black (if the dress is navy).

I personally wouldn't wear stilettos and choose a lower and or chunkier heel for a wedding... But I'm aware that many people are much more dedicated than I am in regards to these things. Wink

MoltonSilver · 12/09/2018 07:38

Are you sure you want to wear white lace to someone else's wedding?

allthesoddingdresses · 12/09/2018 07:50

Molton I have hesitated yes. But ..... the dress is cream/pearl in the description (I know, I know) and the bride is wearing red and has said she couldn't give two hoots what anyone else wears. I think she means it as it was a general conversation not me specifically asking her iykwim.

Not sure now though

The dress is certainly fine in that case :)

Where do you usually buy shoes? Is there a brand that usually tends to work for you? (In my case it's unfortunately tamaris. Their shoes just fit...)

Nude, nude, nude. Most flattering option and you can re-use and re-use (but avoid patent, that's done to death)
