What shoes with this dress?!

I have this dress but really don't want to wear flip flops in the autumn (as it's styled on the Zara website)
What else would work with it?!

Wow - that didn't go well!!
It's a birthday party. In a bar.
It's not super posh/trendy. With friends.
I just want to look nice!

This is going to sound really dense... is a pixie boot just an ankle boot?!
What's the trick to stopping it look clumpy/ like wearing wellies? Or is that the look?

I've no idea how a boot would work with a dress like that (gorgeous by the way!) I'd go with a strappy heal or a sling back.

coronafiona · 05/10/2024 06:06

I'd wear knee length satin pull on boots I think they're called sock boots?? But I am old and not trendy. Lovely dress though!

Love the dress. Where's it from? I've got a pair of leopard ankle boots that would look great with this or a simple black ankle boot.

Garlicbest · 05/10/2024 07:07

YY, @Iamthemoom, I was thinking animal, too, it was a toss-up!

Iamthemoom · 05/10/2024 07:13

@Garlicbest love all your gold options btw. I need those boots! Love the look of gold boots with a little black dress for festive season!

Inslopia · 05/10/2024 07:17

I think strappy platforms would work proportionally and as pp said satin would be a good fabric choice.

spottydinosaur · 05/10/2024 07:52

I love this dress & have bought it! Thanks ☺️

I'd plan to wear heeled mules with it. Black heeled miles with it

bitsalty · 05/10/2024 07:58

I agree with ankle boots. I'd probably go for something pointy and metallic but leopard print would work too.

Oliver Bonas usually have some good boots. Maybe shocking pink or something like that.

Inslopia · 05/10/2024 08:21

I don’t think the hem is really the right length for ankle boots.

Aroastdinnerisnotahumanright · 05/10/2024 08:35

Tall black heeled leather boots.

Tall black heeled leather boots.

I think that would be too heavy for that dress.

pictoosh · 05/10/2024 09:20

I have a pair of very comfortable leopard print wedge sandals that would team up really well with that dress. They were inexpensive but look great on. I'll see if I can find a link.* *

That dress is absolutely gorgeous!! Does anyone have a link please? I’ve tried looking on Zara but I can’t find it

LaLand234 · 05/10/2024 09:48

Would probably wear with pale / matte gold pointed kitten heels (or a chunky heel to dress it down) for a birthday party. Or perhaps something like this
