Its for my Dh's work do and I want to wear something a bit "with it", but what shoes should I wear and what accessories?
I'm a size 10-ish with saddlebags btw and 35.

dune have some possibles? although still quite pricy...the cone heels are very fashionable

some blue shoes

what price range should I look at & what colours would like best...red / yellow / pink / purple / my fave electric blue

My personal view is that bright coloured shoes will look modern & knockout with this dress & I would style it with a rockstar feel...but I am not sure if this is the right way to style it for a work party...maybe you should stick to monochrome for this event?

What is your colouring?

will take a look at links in a sec, thanks.

I'm pale with freckles and mousey hair just below jaw line.

what about these rose satin courts?

or these red ones

am still drawn to these ones though

I don't mind paying over say £50 on a pay of shoes that I'll wear on more than one occasion.

ok, need your help again, I changed my mind about the dress as I'd bought a size 12 as no 10s and then decided it was too big for me and now they are all sold out

Has anyone seen anything similiar to this dress anywhere, as I really like it?
