PIP: Fashion advice needed please

rfrazier611

I'm in a wedding this summer and the dress is tiffany blue.  What color shoes go with it?  Do I have to get tiffany blue shoes and be all matchy matchy?

Edit: Bride has no preference.  Here's a picture.  At least, I think there's a picture.  Sometimes I can see it and sometimes I can't.  Sorry!

Silver? Some sort of metallic? I'm no guru so I might be completely off.

Depending on what accessories you pair with the dress you have a lot of choices. You could do silver, gold, white, brown, or black. Do you have a picture of the dress?

Does the bride have a preference? 

I'd personally go with a metallic- silver or gold.

Definitely avoid the matchy shoes if you can. That's a really dated look. I agree that a metallic, evening shoe would look great. I would do a gunmetal/petwer/silver.

However, if you are going to wearing a black belt or something, then I would do black.

I immediately thought metallic, likes pp's. What are the other wedding colors? If they are something fun like a coral, pink or yellow that could always be a option as well as long as the bride is ok with it.

Thanks!  In my explorations on the interwebz, I've actually seen some coral pumps with tiffany blue dresses.  I think it's adorable, but I dunno if I can pull that off.  What do you guys think of that color combo?

Go with silver. You want to blend and not stand out

You don't need to stand out like that at a wedding, since it's not your day.

Definitely go with silver.

Like a PP mentioned, I actually would go with a cream/off-white unless you know what color jewelry the bride might want you wearing (if she has a preference). I'm thinking about picking these up for a wedding I'm in this spring:

I'll just have to try and keep myself from wearing them everywhere until then.

While cute, I don't think that would look formal enough for a wedding.

I would go with silver or nude.

OMG I have these!

ETA: Sorry for crashing, I seem to have wandered from my BMB and wound up on this one while doing a baby shower outfit search for ideas!

LJUTCMommy

You guise, these are better:

I would do silver or gold could work too. Depends on the jewelry.

Speshul

I would do a metallic or a nude shoe. Your shoes don't have to match your accessories. Mixing metallics looks great!

Now that's a shoe everyone can agree on!

rfrazier611

I dunno if this matters, but I'm actually standing on the dude's side (Groomsmaid?).  I love the idea of a black belt and black shoes to Tux-ify my dress.  I will run that idea by the bride.

I did this. I wore a black dress with wedding color jewelry though.

That sounds awesome!

Something like this?

I would go nude shoes with gold accessories.

What is the color scheme? I'd probably do silver or black just to keep it formal looking.  I love the black accessories but I wouldn't do that if it wasn't a part of the theme as it stands out more than silver.

All I have been told so far is blue and sunflowers.

Is it a night wedding or day wedding?

I am samesies about nude shoes.

I really feel like it is the classiest option.

Exactly. No matter the time of the wedding I would never do black with this colored dress.

Just my opinion though.

raguggenmos

Nude shoes for sure!

elvbri

I vote nude.

Ugh, nevermind.  I guess there is a preference after all.  I was just informed that we'll most likely be wearing yellow sandals.  Yellow.  Sandals.  Good lord.  My mouth is hereby closed, and I will wear them with a smile because it's her day and, by golly, I will do whatever she asks to help make her day exactly what she wants it to be.

I guess that's the sunflower part of the theme. I guess the bride doesn't have a problem with matchy matchy

girlmama83

Is that David's bridal? I wore that exact color blue in a wedding and I wore silver heels.
