What type of shoes should I wear with this dress/to this dance -explaination inside-?

In a few months I have a school dance (not a prom), the first "wear a dress" one that I've gone to. According to my friend who is older than me and has gone to this dance before, girls really dress up......nice shoes, dress, make-up, up-dos, ect....but not as dressy as a prom. Well, I found a halter dress that goes just past the knee, has a small amount of barely noticable netting at the bottom, and is white with a floral (but not grandma floral) brown and salmon design, and a segment in the upper middle area is brown. The dress itself is fine, but what shoes should I wear with it? I found shoes here:

(it's the brown one that there isn't a picture of)



but I have a few questions. One are they reasonable/dressy enough for a dance? I can walk in them fine, and they match the dress. Also, what other shoes might you reccomend? heel height/style/ect

Go with a shoe that is a t-strap with minimal embellishments...

Here are a couple of ideas (the prices are high, so these are just suggestions on style):

These are my favorite because they are taupe...which compliments brown and coral....

Heel height is up to you, but considering the dress is just below the knee...I would go with atleast a 2 inch heel. If you are really tall...go with a kitten heel. No more than an inch.



Jewelry? NO...and I mean NO necklace. Halter styles are designed to bring the focus to your chest area and up. Don't break up the "flow" by adorning your neck. Instead, some simple earrings that dangle would be great. Look for earrings that have a little sparkle, but not overkill. Try and find a pair that incorporate the coloring in the dress. Maybe some beads or amber stones. A nice dangle of about 2 inches would be plenty. Bracelets are where you can have fun! Mix it up with a few bangles.

Hope this helps!!



P.S....the shoes you picked out are really cute and go with it if you feel comfortable in them. I just wanted to give you a few alternatives. GOOD LUCK!
Reply:That shoe is gorgeous and is dressy enough. If u go for strappy high heels you would look like you are going to the prom. Anyway for the jewelry i would not wear a necklace but i would wear a bracelet and earrings.
Reply:it's a dance so make sure you can dance in the shoes you get.
Reply:Can you upload a picture of your dress or find one online that's similar? The shoes from Khol's look more suitable for a day out strolling on the pier than a night time gala.



How about any of these?

And if you're wearing a brown dress you could always go for a gold tone like this:

Too matchy matchy is no good.



As far as jewelry goes, I'd go with some nice dangly earrings. Skip the necklace. Halters don't work well with necklaces since they rub against the dress in the back and they will compete with the the halter's line around your neck. Too complicated.
Reply:The dress sounds cute and I think the shoes you chose would look great. Not to dressy but not overly casual. Shoes like that can look dressy or casual depending on what you wear with them. Another option is a cute wedge. As for jewelry, with a a halter neck some people say no necklace, it looks too busy, but I think a nice long double strand necklace would look great. Maybe a salmon color or even white/off-white. Add a few bangles, not to many, but since the dress code is more of a semi-formal be a little funky and fun with your jewelry, oh and you can rock it with a great pair of earrings. Halter dresses emphasize the length of your neck so you can wear a more dangly earring:

(in the right colors of course)

Next top it off with a great clutch in a bronze/chocolate brown color and some glitz to it:

Reply:wel wid a holter dress i usually wear a small subtle necless and a few bracelets! for shoes i would wear ballet pumps or nice cute strappy highheals!

have fun!!
Reply:im too lazy to read and you should wear a black dress black shoes black pearls black clip for your hair and a black coat.
Reply:I wouldn't get the brown shoes actually. I'd get black. The shoes themselves are SO CUTE!! Since it's a halter don't wear a necklace, but wear some nice silver pink and brown bracelets. Some silver hoops would look cute. Definettly wear mascara, UR SKIN COLORED FOUNDATION, some sparkly powder (All over ur body), and some pink or brown eye shadow.
Reply:yes they are dressy enough and If I would recommend ne other dressy shoes I would say the high heels like looks like a pair of flip flops but there high heels. Good luck findin the right shoes.
Reply:Wow...i love those shoes!Maybe in white,since the dress has white,and no black. Brown would be good too.



If you can't get those shoes,wedges would be great.It's the new style,and they're very dressy,and would go great with a floral dress.Something like:

As for jewelry,I wouldn't wear a necklace because of the neckline halters have.



I would go for a bracelet!Maybe something like:http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?cat...



Bangles would go well. Or perhaps a more slinky bracelet you have at home.



Have fun at the dance!The dress sounds gorgeous=]
Reply:Go with a solid colored thick heel. Maybe the heels that have a bow on then they cover your front an d back but the middle is out that way u really don't have 2 paint u're toes. u can find this at any mall Rave, Macey's, Burlinton shoe facrtory, And Burlinton's coat factory.
