What shoes this outfit ?

Out for drinks this weekend and been stressed about what to wear, have finally settled on this skirt and top.
But what colour heels?

I'm a big fan of this brand and shape, they work really well for me. But what colour? Or something else entirely?

I'm thinking black, but have been so out of sorts I'm struggling to make a decision.

I prefer the gold in that shoe but then I have a bit of a thing about black shoes on the end of legs with shorter skirts, I think they look weird especially if it's bare leg.

I'd probably go nude or light gold with that top.

Wouldn't do gold, might need to think of another option.

I like the ones you've linked to in either colour but I think the tan would go better.

Hi OP I was on your other thread about this outfit. The strappy sandals you posted there looked good, did they not work in the end?

Hop27 · 17/08/2022 12:20

@Flyinggeesei234 - good memory.
yes the others I posted 5 months ago look amazing with it BUT, this bar has the staircase from hell and I'm too afraid to wear them because they are just that fraction too high !!! This poor outfit has only been out once and needs a 2nd outing (with shoes that won't potentially break my neck)
I have the shoes pictured in a couple of different colours for work (neither which go with this outfit) and feel really comfortable in them walking around and going up and down narrow stairs. (God that make me sound old)

@Hop27 I remembered the outfit as soon as I saw it again as I really liked it the first time and it was so refreshingly not the ‘usual suspects’ for S&B! A proper going out outfit I could relate to!

OK given what you need from the shoes (still elegant but not deadly!), will post some ideas.

Just realised you’re not UK but something like this? www.johnlewis.com/l-k-bennett-neave-suede-strappy-sandals-trench/p5447912

@Flyinggeesei234 ! Yes I have a pair of Jimmy Choo's similar, but they are like wearing knives. Have a look at this site and see if you spot anything.

I love beautiful things and getting dressed up! It's cooler here in the evening, so may need to team with this blazer.

Ok so me personally I would go with the black as you can then add a nice little black bag to go with it....... I'd tuck the top in aswell.

The brown tan shoes are lovely but I think cos the skirt is black leather it might make the outfit end up looking a bit.... Cheap when it may not even be!

Those tan shoes I'd wear with a blue denim skirt or jeans...... With a nice white shirt... Tanned bag.

Hop27 · 17/08/2022 21:08

@sofiak90 - it's definitely getting tucked in!!!

I would also defo go with black it goes with the skirt and detailing in the top, with a black clutch/small cross body it'll look cohesive and classy. Have fun OP 🤍

I also think that going for a similar material finish to the skirt rather than a suede would be better if you can. Like these:

@PewterHeart - love those too! I'm going to
TB on Saturday so I'll keep you posted! Definitely going to go back. I only have one black pair of shoes which I did consider. But they are 100mm Kate's so I would literally need DH to carry me up and down the stairs!

Ah bless you 😂 I suck at high heels! I never used to as a teen but don't get practise anymore because my DH is only 1cm or so taller than me so I feel like Shrek if I wear heels! At our wedding I wore 1 inch and got him some cowboy/Cuban style boots so he was still talker than me for photos 😂

Yes keep us posted on what you end up with! Defo a good idea to go with something manageable height-wise 😊
