Well, I am not a fan of yellow, but the thirds ones are awesome. I love that style. The first ones in silver may be a bit too dressy. I love funky shoes. They can make or break the whole outfit. I may hit payless to see what they have in pink or green. Whatever shoes I get I will match it with accessories so everything floes. I am really leaning toward pink or turquoise.

don't go too matchy matchy. i think the silver necklace would be fine with any of the shoes, but i wouldn't try to find pink or turquoise jewelry.

I really like the second pair, the silver ones, that Annie posted. They would go great with your silver-heart necklace! Sorry, but I am VERY into matchy-matchy. LOL. That way the navy in the dress would 'pop'. If you want to steer clear of being too dressy, a FLAT silvery sandal, (or at least a less spiky heel) would be just the ticket.

i don't mind silver jewelry with silver shoes, i think that looks nice (pop of a color handbag though), but i would never so something like pink shoes with pink jewelry.

Wow Escapee, those shoes are FABULOUS!!!!!!!!! I love them! They are going to look smashing with your outfit! At 7 bucks, they're a steal. And the best part is they look pricey. Annie, if I ever wear Pink shoes, shoot me. LOL My shoe colours are black, white, gold, silver, and tan. I am just not the adventurous type. Mind you I do have Betty Boop flipflops, and a pair of Banana Slippers. Tee hee.

Mame, I had a pair of platform sandals way back when. The platform and heel were shiny black patent-leatherish and the top was hot pink suede laceup. Got tons of compliments on those shoes. A little pink footwear never hurt anybody, lol. Shoes were 'my thing'. Now it's just sandals & sneakers.

Well CT & Annie, I had a pair of pink ballet shoes (and a scratchy pink tutu) when I was a kid in ballet class. Does that count?

Hey Mame, I had ballets shoes too! One pair of black slippers with the little elastic strap to hold them on and a pair of pink satin toe shoes, given to me by a school friend, 2 sizes too small. But I crammed my feet into them and toe-danced all around my bedroom. Same friend also gave me her old tap shoes. I was thrilled, my mom not so much, lol.

OOh I remember my tap shoes too! Clickety-clack, clickety-clack all over the hardwood floors. LOL. And your platforms sound off-the-charts, (in a good way.) I have an authentic pair of platforms sandals from the 70's. The top is tan/light brown and the bottom is carved wood! I have a pic of them somewhere. The Bata Shoe Museum offered me 60 bucks for them. I declined. They said they'd pay more if they were black. How dumb is that??? I still have them, and one of these days I am going to Ebay them, when I have the heart to REALLY part with them.

Annie, they're adorable. I love ballet flats - on other people. I've tried on several pairs and they do nothing to enhance my feet (or my height, lol).

'elloooo down there. I'm 6' and haven't worn any kind of heels for I can't remember how many years. Think the last time was in the mid '80s.

Another shorty here who wears flats. I have a bad back and bad knees, so I have no choice. At least flats are in style again.
