Fashun help again please - shoes

Roobarb, 17 April, 2009 at 19:05 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 9

I have bought this to wear to my little boy's christening next month. (I have also bought something else, will need to take that back now as I think the length on this suits me better. Anyway).

Does anyone have any idea of what shoes I could get to go with it? I am thinking they will have to be navy but all I've seen are granny style navy court shoes or sandals. I am looking for something with a bit of a heel, not too high and also not too expensive as I don't think I'll get much wear out of them. Oh, and needs to come in a size 8 *weep*

Do any other colours go do you think? GIrl in Monsoon suggested cream but the pattern on the dress is actually white and not cream so I don't think it will go. I saw a pair of white patent slingbacks in New Look but as with pretty much any shoe in my size they were hideous and looked like drag queen shoes 😢

Would silver go? Not a bright shiny silver, but a darker pewetery silver?

🥳

    Gold, silver, emerald green, brown, yellow...as long as bag and shoes match.

    I agree - I think silver would look great - or another bright colour if you tgie it in with accessories. How about these from New Look:

    These from asos:

    These from Barratts: http://www.barratts.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product1_10055_-1_78221_10553

    Oooh I like those Turquoisey Barratt ones. I have quite a lot of clothes that would go with those too so would get more wear out them. I think I have to be quite careful with bright colours although I think yellow ones sound fab or else I run the risk of looking like I have big transvestite feet ?

    I'd go for red. This is a great site that brings up loads of results from other sites if for instance you type in 'red shoes'.

    How about these? I bought both of these pairs to wear when I was a bridesmaid and I wasn't sure if either would fit! They are both size 8 and wide fitting as I' have big wide fat feet!
