Bright yellow dress - what shoes?

jaz, 27 May, 2008 at 15:28 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 21

What colour shoes could you wear with a very bright yellow dress? I'm hoping to get a lot of wear from gold glittery slingbacks but would gold clash?

TIA

    I wouldn't wear gold personally. Is the dress neon yellow or banana yellow?

    I'm thinking grey / pewter or maybe nude.

    Depends on the dress and the occasion. If it was quite formal, gold might go, but I think brown/bronze or tan or even black if they were strappy would be better.

    I think your sparkly ones would be fine. They're not exactly gold with all the glitter all over them so I reckon you could get away with wearing them with everything.

    And if they do clash - who cares - they're Louboutins!! ?

    I don't like tan/nude shoes, they're too close to skin colour to give a contrast IYSWIM, but that's just my opinion.

    Tan would work lovely with that yellow.

    Can we have a pick of the shoes now?

    The dress looks very nice.

    I think strappy black would be okay too, or go for an off-the-wall colour like bright blue or red. Not the gold though, sorry ?

    The gold shoes

    Hope that isn't massive! Also have kind of black strappy ones but they might be a bit chunky...

    I don't think those would work either - they're lovely but they are a bit of the chunky side and also I think patent leather would be wrong with that dress. Clearrly you will have to give up and send the dress to me.

    I think both are a bit chunky if I've got the style of dress right.

    Mr jaz may make me send the dress back to the shop which would be even worse Sophie!

    Too boring?

    What I had in mind was something like this

    if you go for black, or this http://www.faith.co.uk/productdetails.aspx?pid=825376&language=en-GB&cid=112 if you go for tan - a more casual aapproach.

    Those 2 strappy ones look like the shred my chubby feet. Those tan ones might be a goer though? I prefer something higher tbh if I'm getting my legs out ?

    I really like the style of your bronze ones but, with your yellow dress, i'd prefer them in black or maybe pewter. I have some very similar from Debut.
