Shoes to go with this dress?

[WineGetsMeThroughIt]

I've got this dress that I'll be wearing to a couple of 'events' this year. Once to a wedding, and at least once into London (will need to take the train in and walk a small amount).

I'm thinking of possibly a gold or a black shoe. But not opposed to silver or nude either if it looks ok. I am quite petite and fine boned - so skinny ankles. Nothing too chunky. I'd like a medium to higher heel (probably on the higher side) because I'm only 5'4. The first thing that came to mind was a black or gold heeled strappy sandal with a toe strap about 1-1.5cm wide and an ankle strap. There is not a lot of space between my ankle and the bottom of the dress so I'm wondering if there is a sling back option that means my ankle won't look chopped off with the ankle strap. Can anyone think of any?

Also open to any other suggestions!!

Bonus points for suggesting a handbag as well. Would like to keep the costs down if possible. £120ish give or take for the shoes. Also open to pictures above that rand just for style inspo.

Thanks!

That’s beautiful, is it Self Portrait?

I have the black Self Portrait Azaelea dress and have always worn pointed nude shoes with it. But feel like that is super dull. Love your idea of gold.

Yes it is 😊

This or a low heeled orange suede?

Lovely dress, but I wouldn't wear black to a wedding. Others on here will say its fine, but I wouldn't.

What is your colouring? Pale, dark, olive? What colour jewellery do you usually wear? Gold/silver? Nude, silver or gold shoes would all go. I'm dark haired, and would even go with red shoes and handbag to lift it a bit.

John Lewis has a sale on currently.

Beautiful dress. I love the shoes in the picture. Are they Valentino? I think this bag is fab…

Thanks for the suggestion but these are far too low, and a little 'granny' rather than sexy. I want an open toe. Also really hate the colour orange

I am a summer colouring - fair with long light blonde hair. I'm well aware black is not my ideal colour but I will have a tan so it helps. Also this dress has some nude peaking through which helps it work with my colouring. I can get away with a dull / brushed gold colour, but not a bright shiny gold.

I just want a simple shoe and bag. Nothing to compete with the dress

Thank you, but not keen on that. I think the accordion edges of the bag compete too much with the pattern of the dress. I'm thinking something fairly simple.

I'm thinking something like this - both in style and in colour. But these are Giuseppe Zanotti and are no longer available and sadly not in my price range. I will need a bit of a chunkier heel as I'll be on my feet for quite a while.

These? ASOS

These in nude?

These?

Last ones...

I like these shoes but they don't have a matching bag. I think its the style with the strap going diagonal that appeals to me.

Would you go for a pop of colour - green, fuchsia or yellow?

Light gold would be fine. Black def not and nude always looks odd to me.

Yes, I thought maybe these? But are they too chunky?

I like this style and don't mind the look. I had looked at these ones actually. Would prefer a plain leather rather than a printed. But these ones are a no as they're sold out in my size anyways otherwise I probably would have ordered them

Those green ones are lovely and would be gorgeous with your dress

Would this bag work with those shoes?

I think you definitely need a pop of bright colour. Red is always my go to but I think anything bright would work.

I love this bag: www.uterque.com/gb/bags/mini-bags/oval-evening-bag-c1970506p9312625.html?colorId=710

@Pinkcadillac that bag is beautiful

How about these!

Those green ones are lovely a colour and shape but suede says winter to me especially combined with the black dress might be a bit heavy. Just also thought that gold shoes with the black dress might be a bit Christmas works do?
