I need help deciding what color shoes to pair with this dress. It is an ivory/cream color. I know I want to wear flats or sandals (not a heel person at all) but I’m not sure what color to wear. I was considering doing a red flat with red lipstick, but I want to do that for my rehearsal/ rehearsal dinner. Any suggestions? Or do you think it’s okay to do the red pop for both occasions? And if you have a lipstick color suggestion (makeup addict), that would be awesome too! Thanks, bees!

If you want to do red for the rehersal as well that is okay. I think red would look really nice with this dress. ModCloth.com is my online obsession. They have so many cute shoes to choose from that are fairly inexpensive. I know you hate heels but a cute low wedge would look really nice with that dress. Good luck!

You could wear any bright color with that dress for a pop of color. Or, you could choose to go neutral with a nude wedge sandal and keep the makeup soft like pink or coral.

Kendrao: julies1949: Thanks for the suggestions. I’m not totally opposed to heels. I can walk in them and everything. I’m just a little on the tall side with the shortest family ever, so it’s always a big spectacle when I wear heels! That’s all anyone seems to notice, haha!
When I posted the photos from my phone, they were not sideways! My apologies, bees!

Kendrao: I, too, am obsessed with modcloth. I am actually ordering my rehearsal dinner dress from there this week once I get paid. http://www.modcloth.com/shop/dresses/new-york-minuet-dress and I do have a coupon for $20 off $100, so that’s not a bad idea!
