shoes for a red dress?

Question

i have a dance coming up and i recently bought a gorgeous red babydoll halter dress by Nightway but now i need shoes to go with it, any ideas? I dont want to do black a red and im trying to stay away from doing red with red, i was thinking some strappy heels that are more of a champagne color but i need suggestions....

i dont want to spend too much because the dress was like $170 so $40 tops

Answer 1

Hi, I had the same problem and finally decided on some this past weekend. I have a military ball to go to and needed shoes for a red dress that I found (cheap!) at Ross. I really wanted to get some gorgeous champagne colored heels I found at Shoe Carnival for $19 but I need a shawl too and couldn't find one to match. I decided to go w/ silver (silver shawl, jewelry and purse too) and it looks great together. I found the shoes at Marshall's for $24.99 (they had the same pair at Dillard's and Macy's for $49). I think champagne would be great and silver would also be good. If you can find the perfect pair of red, then red w/ red would look good but that's up to you. I agree on the black though, no black w/ red. I think you will have luck b/c a lot of places seem to have sales going on right now to get rid of their end of season stock and bring in the spring shoes. Have a great time & good luck!

Try a metallic strappy shoe like this one...

How about strappy gold sandals? Look at Zappos.com for ideas in a good price range.

Answer 4

silver or gold strappy heels would go great.more fun than black, and better than red with red.

Answer 5

As for colors I would go with:
1.Silver or gold
2.Black would look cute too but u don't want black
3.Or some of the clear(i think it's called lucite) shoes... the plasticy clear lookin ones

Answer 6

Champagne would be a good, neutral color and could be worn with other outfits.

Answer 7

I would go with a gold strappy heel.

Answer 8

Maybe silver shoes? I really think black heels with black jewelry would be your best bet!! Good Luck!

I like the champange color idea. It seems like it would work well, Here are some links to afforadable shoes, however some may not have the exact champagne color you may want, but i hope this helps!!!!

Answer 10

neutral.. like a skin tone.. champagne, beige, even gold.

You could also go silver.. that is a neutral.

Good luck and have fun.
