this dress
Which I have ordered today...

Would these shoes go with it???

If not, then any other suggestions for shoes that arent hideously uncomfortable that might go with it???

Hmmm... not sure about the colour but the shape should go. I must say when I saw the netaporter page opening I thought and . But that dress is both lovely and reasonably priced.

yousaidit · 26/02/2009 20:49

ooh yesh, i heart that outfit 2pt4kids... damn you!!

Ronaldinhio · 26/02/2009 20:50

No you may not wear that dress with those shoes.
The dress is v lovely but is also understated and cheap shoes might cheapen it.

What are your legs like?

Breizhette · 26/02/2009 20:51

The shape works, not sure about the colour either.

What about the same shoes but in black?
I cant afford anything more expensive than those, so posh shoes are out!

Legs are ok, slightly wide calfs in proportion to rest of (size 10) me

Well, if you want lower,
these what do you think of these?

Marthasmama · 26/02/2009 21:07

these? or these?

Ronaldinhio · 26/02/2009 21:08

blue will go with purple and are tres funky

as ever I'm in love with samsonara's picks

superfrenchie1 · 26/02/2009 21:10

or if you are going for comfort and all-night danceability etc maybethese? they tick the round toe and cone heel boxes.

i think black is good with that dress.

i would probably do something likethis with black tights too.

such a great dress!

superfrenchie1 · 26/02/2009 21:12

sorry i take it back marthasmama's silver office pair are the best, really lovely, and you said you were going to a wedding, i forgot - ignore my last post

samsonara · 26/02/2009 21:16

See by Chloe style is all about being a bit cool and different so be brave with colour

Samsonara - I love the 2nd purple ones. I think they are the wrong purple for the dress though, shame.

I am torn between the blue ones Ronaldinhio linked to here

and the silver ones marthasmummy found here
