What shoes to wear with this dress?

Rosy Posy

I got this dress to wear to a wedding second day party (no way would I wear something like this to an actual wedding- its way too white!!)


Its quite short and I'm reasonably tall (5ft 6.5ins...that .5in is very important to me:D) so I've got these leggings to go underneath.


I'm just not sure what kind of shoes to wear with it. I think the party will be reasonably dressy but not as formal as the wedding itself. Nothing too high (say 4" max) or strappy as my feet will probably be in bits from the night before. I really like the old fashioned style and brands like irregular choice and miss l fire.

Ideas? Inspiration? Thanks!

I have these but I was thinking they're too bright. The collar of the dress is quite sparkly and I think that there would be too much going on.

Was looking at these online maybe?

Some strappy wedges would be really nice with that and perfect for a less formal day after party maybe a tan colour or the colour of the small design on the dress ( can't quite see what it is) would make it pop, really pretty dress!

what about these? are they the same colour as the collar?

They look a good bit lighter- the collar is bronzy brown sequins but the print is kind of gold.

That site is good- and cheap! Have you got shoes from there before? Are they comfortable?

This is a close up of the fabric- it's silk organza.

New Zealand!

I'm going home for the wedding though so I'll be in Dublin the week before so I could get in to try some on, just trying to get inspiration so I can do some efficient shopping once I get home.
