Shoes to go with this dress

Can anyone point me in the direction of shoes to go with this dress? Heels ideally, preferably not sandals but will consider them. I’ve tried to go for something colourful as it’s for a wedding and I’m aware the dress is predominantly black but can’t quite pick out a single colour. The fuschia ones I’ve seen don’t really match. Getting kind of desperate now, please help!

No link but I'd look for a very light blush coloured shoe.

Catquest1 · 11/07/2019 07:41

Thats a lovely dress!

Im not really style and beauty expert (i come here for advice rather than giving it!) But i have a pair of black gladiator sryle heels which ive had for years that would go well with that.

Bit like these ones but quick google pulls up more delicate summery ones.

Light blush colour sounds like a good idea, I’ll have a hunt about this evening.
Cat thank you, there’s been a whole other saga thread about my other dress, I don’t love this one as much sadly, it’s definitely an ‘it’ll do’ dress at this time!
Those sort of shoes seem to hurt my feet with all the straps and things but I’m not discounting anything now Grin

That’s a beautiful dress. Was your other the maxi dress with flowers? If so, I thought it was beautiful x

CakeNinja · 11/07/2019 14:07

Yes Gus the pinky one. It was so pretty but made me look incredibly chunky up top (because I am, it wasn’t the dresses fault!).

A very hopeful and pleading bump for anyone who can just choose some shoes for me, I have zero idea on style etc Grin

Bright pink peep toes?

CakeNinja · 11/07/2019 22:04

I think my feet are really ugly! Would post a pic to get some opinions - no one has commented on them before, I just really hate feet in general - but I don’t want anyone to think I’ve got some kind of weird foot fetish Grin

I think the only colour would be pale pink . I’d get a pale pink bag too as it would lighten up the black.

However if you cannot find pink (pale pink suede would be great) go with black sling backs. Kitten heels are easier to wear all day. Again a suede might be nice. I really like your dress. It’s very smart.

How high are you prepared to go? If you prefer a low heel maybe something like this?

Or these? A bit expensive from RandB but included for ideas.

I'd go for yellow courts to bring out the flash of yellow in the dress. Something like these?:

I prefer high heels to low ones, I can walk fine in them and find them okay comfort wise.
Thanks for all the links, I’m off to peruse now and hopefully buy a few pairs to try out (and keep all of Grin ).

Try whatever colour that leaf is...lime green or yellow. I can't tell from the picture.

Kaz2200 · 12/07/2019 06:54

I've just bought these for a wedding surprisingly comfy.

The gap pumps are lovely xx

CakeNinja · 14/07/2019 03:43

The ones I ordered arrived today (very speedy delivery considering I ordered them Thursday night!) I love them - although I haven’t actually tried them on yet. So pretty and with tiny bows on the back - you’d never see them but I know they’re there. Thank you all for your help, you are my style gurus!

Oh I want to see the whole outfit now OP

Is that dress from Mint Velvet? It's a lovely dress wherever it's from.

CakeNinja · 14/07/2019 15:06

I’ll post a pic when I put everything on. No it was from Coast of all places!
