I have managed to borrow a dress that fits (after last minute trying of planned dress to find norkage had shrunk beyond redemption, should never have stopped bf!) - pic on profile (or will be in a mo).

What on earth do i do for shoes???

Have time tomorrow to shop, only in town though so Debenhams, Monsoon, some shoe shops can't remember which ones, Clarks, etc.

Size 5.

Budget not the main concern.

At the moment will be barefoot which whilst cool in a hippy way is not quite the tone of the wedding

Would like matching shoes, too tricky?
Thinking maybe silver/sparkly sandals?
Can't manage high heels, maybe a low heel, thinking flat might not look so perfect with the dress?

All tips/advice/hep gratefully received

Yes they're nice. I have a thing about Monsoon which puts me off their stuff. Ignore all I say!

Ok, am back from marathon (for me) shopping trip and...no luck with shoes at all.

M&S didn't have the ones linked to, the Monsoon ones in real life didn't look very nice.

Next didn't have the adult ones in stock in my size.
And i forgot to look in the kids section (may try again if i find time) for the ones i liked the look of.

But, M&S did have these the pinky colour exactly matches the dress (i took it with me, thanks for that tip).
should i get them? are they too clunky/old-fashioned?

am going to try Matalan if i can as friend recommended them for colourful shoes. will go and look and see if they have a nice website.

Otherwise, i have some monsoon flip-flops from last year that are sort of dark grey/pewter with sequins that may work
