Help! What shoes with this dress?

Cantthinkofaname99 · 25/06/2021 17:53

Ladies I need your help! I brought this dress last year for my friends wedding, the wedding got postponed and is now happening in July. However I'm really struggling with what shoes to get to go with it, any suggestions? Preferably not stilettos as they hoping it will be a nice day and will spend a lot of time outside. Thank you in advance for your help!

Cream espadrilles?

Iamthewombat · 25/06/2021 17:59

That’s nice. I say navy wedge espadrilles!

iwouldlikearefundonmybody · 25/06/2021 19:05

Black or cream ballet type shoes?

TheStitcher · 25/06/2021 19:09

I would say espadrilles or flats might be a bit casual for most weddings? What about something like these www.newlook.com/uk/womens/footwear/shoes/occasion-shoes/pale-pink-suedette-ankle-strap-block-sandals/p/623880114?extcam=UK_PPC_PLA_Priority_Google_DV_m&_cclid=Google_EAIaIQobChMI68Goj7Cz8QIVlYBQBh2wfw2UEAQYASABEgJjNPD_BwE&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI68Goj7Cz8QIVlYBQBh2wfw2UEAQYASABEgJjNPD_BwE - they come in lots of colours and most would go with that dress

Onlinedilema · 25/06/2021 20:51

Silver or gold sandals.

Pinkcadillac · 25/06/2021 20:58

I'd go for block heels in gold or tan

HiHoSylvie · 25/06/2021 22:28

I'd go medium/dark tan with that. I normally say gold with that sort of green, but that's a bit more muted and think an equally muted colour would work with it. Navy, nude or maybe burgundy too..

Something like this would look nice. I have a Dune pair similar and they are very comfortable

Gold sandals. Green and gold are lovely together.

Longdistance · 26/06/2021 00:12

I came on to say espadrilles. Or maybe something with a wedge.

BearFacedCheekGrylls · 26/06/2021 00:14

Emerald dress, hot pink shoes.

scatteredglitter · 26/06/2021 00:17

sezane have some lovely gold sandals in their archives sale at the moment

Cantthinkofaname99 · 26/06/2021 08:12

Thank you for all your replies, I definitely have a few options/ ideas now, although still looking!

I found some navy espadrille wedges on Monsoon that look nice.

Also found some 'camel' sandals on sezane that I quite like (can I justify the price tag, plus says delivery might be a while?!)

I definitely need heels as I'm quite short!

They are lovely. Great choices.

frogswimming · 26/06/2021 08:33

I think the tan sesame shoes are a bit casual for a wedding as would heeled espadrilles be. I would get tan, gold or nude wedge or block heeled sandals, but more dressy looking.

Air and grace have some lovely espadrilles at the moment. Like walking on cushions. Next day delivery too!

Iamthewombat · 26/06/2021 10:07

No to the Sezane sandals from me. Re the espadrilles, you need the type with ankle ties, which look much better. The pair you have picked out are too Kate Middleton.

Agreed @beefest, these would look great.

A couple of other options from Dune here...

OP those Suzanne sandals are absolutely gorgeous.

I agree with a PP not for with that dress (at least not for a wedding). I’m a die hard stiletto wearer for dressy occasions but really attempted by those.

Flyinggeese1 · 26/06/2021 12:31

Tempted! Agh!

Cantthinkofaname99 · 26/06/2021 13:00

Dune looks like a good bet, they seem to have a few to choose from.

I'm normally stilettos too but because of Covid if weather is ok as much as possible will be outside with gravel or grass including dancing.
