Need advice on shoes......

[supernanny]

I have 2 dresses that I am trying to decide between for a Caribbean cruise. They are both a champagne/gold color but a little difference in shades. One is strapless, full length satin with a lacy overlay which has silver highlights in it and laces up in the back. The other is a more slinky tank style top with some some small glittery gems all over. This one is also full length but shorter in the front? Anyway, my question is what type/color of shoes to wear with either of these. I have a pair of split pumps in a gold that absolutely matches the lacy one, but is that too bridesmaidish? I was thinking possibly a silver because of the silver highlights in the dress but think it might also clash? Just not sure about the other dress at all. I was thinking more of a sexy sandal but no idea what color to go with? Also, same question about a wrap?

As for the lacy dress with the silver highlights, I think silver shoes would be perfect! It shouldn't clash. It should bring out those highlights.

 

The other one -- the slinky tank style top with glittery gems -- what color is it?

Not seeing the dresses is harder to come up with suggestions. If you are trying to cut back on shoes, my instinct would be to find a pair of champagne colored shoes (high heeled sandals?) that would go with both dresses. These are just a few examples from Nordstrom. A lot of ladies here have found Zappos to be a good source for shoes.

I don't know if you can get these at this time of the year, but around Prom time they sell sandals that are clear and have some decor in silver or maybe gold. This way you know they will go because they are mostly clear.

Re-reading your post, I see you are trying to decide between dresses, right?

 

Still, not seeing them is a bit of a problem, they both do sound lovely. I suppose I would just go with the one I like better on myself and more than likely the one I already have the shoes for.
