black - or match with accessories - silver for eg

Bluestocking · 12/08/2008 20:19

Gold or a pewtery silver might be nice?

EffiePerine · 12/08/2008 20:19

widgypog · 12/08/2008 20:20

these match but not in a good way

SNoraWotzThat · 12/08/2008 20:21

Red or Magenta for evening.

olympicsnotfederer · 12/08/2008 20:22

lovely dress

personally I would go for a complete contrast with shoes

I bought some gorgeous mustard yellow strappy sandals recently that would be fab

jade green?

silver would be ok, if a bit safer

not black

olympicsnotfederer · 12/08/2008 20:23

and don't try to match with purple

CouldYouWouldYouWithaGoat · 12/08/2008 20:23

god i am getting old, laughing at 'fashion' shoes

i agree with olympic, bright yellow or green would be cool

MrsBates · 12/08/2008 20:25

Yellow or green ladies - I'm with you.

widgypog · 12/08/2008 20:27

ooh never thought of yellow or green..what kind of shoes..?

widgypog · 12/08/2008 20:28

olympic ..can you link your yellow shoes?

maidamess · 12/08/2008 20:28

As its a bright purple, I'd go black I think.

Dragonbutter · 12/08/2008 20:31

definitely yellow. someone probably already linked these
or maybe these gold ones

LetThemEatCake · 12/08/2008 20:31

green, I love purple and green.

Red also fantastic

olympicsnotfederer · 12/08/2008 20:53

sorry widgypog, they were in the sale at River Island and no longer on line

they are strappy sandals with a medium heel and with a big buckle on the ankle strap

look fab with tanned legs

olympicsnotfederer · 12/08/2008 20:54

depends on the occasion but I would go with a wdge or strappy, not a court shoe

olympicsnotfederer · 12/08/2008 20:54

*wedge

fishie · 12/08/2008 20:56

silver would be lovely. really nice dress widgypog. yellow would be horrific (but i hate yellow) green is ok and nicely suffragetty.

a peep toe wedge type shoe and colour I agree with a yellow for funky young look but a tan for more subtle look

Niceychops · 12/08/2008 21:10

silver

widgypog · 12/08/2008 21:13
