Dear ESB: Since you're on a shoe kick...


Since you're obviously enjoying this spring's amazing shoes, I was wondering if you have an opinion (I'm guessing yes) about what kind of shoe to wear with this Dolce and Gabbana sun dress that I will be wearing to my wedding at my mother's apartment, and then two days later at a larger party for friends and family.

I've been eyeing the Emerson Fry Pharaoh heels but not sure about the chunkiness. I can do the shopping myself, just curious what you think about shape and color. 

I've been reading you forever, trust your judge more or less without question :)

Oh because that sounds fun. I tell you what SHAPE AND COLOR and you go shopping??

How do I know until I see it????????

Chunky = good
Rose = too matchy-matchy. I'd maybe go with something nude.

OH BUT WHEN I SHOP FOR NUDE/CHUNKY LOOK WHAT I JUST FOUND:




Roanne Mignon Sandal by Loeffler Randall

  1. Heh, I think the chunky for this dress isn't that great of an idea. It's 50s inspired so I think a more -er, delicate shoe is needed. If I were her I'd definitely go with the nude suggestion.

    I don't think color can be out of the question either, though! I love mixing prints and color palates, but that's just me. I'd pick a less dominant color, like the yellow... IDK are bows overdone?

  3. I would go with something lighter and with an ankle strap. I like the ones that have many straps on them!
