; une tasse: a beauty and casual fashion blog: Black & Navy?

Black & Navy?



I'm attending a wedding in three weeks and have finally managed to track down a suitable dress today, this lace beauty from Next. It's now the most sophisticated dress I own even though I look nowhere as good as the model does in it (impossible task methinks). The only thing is that I've come a bit stuck on what shoes I should buy. I know a nude pair would go great with this dress but I spent the day in Zara cooing over all the gorgeous shoes and all my favourites are black!




Can you see a trend here? I do love a platform and a chunky heel.

Is it ever okay to mix navy and black? Normally I don't really adhere to certain fashion "rules" but it's a formal occasion and I want to look my very best. What do you think? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated :D

  2. Wow beautiful dress, no doubt you will look amazing in it going by your wedding photos!
    All 3 pairs are amazing and would work really well. I'm definitely going to try and get the 3rd pair as they remind me of the YSL Tributes! Does that help at all lol?! x x

    1. Stunning dress Tass! I'd say a sleeker black heel would look good with that dress, but I'm not sure if these styles might look a bit heavy in black with the delicate lace and pencil shape? (I love clumpy heels myself so would also veer towards them!) I'd say clumpier styles in nude would look lovely, and a sleeker style in black would work too. Of the three pairs, I think the middle ones would work best, as they're not quite as clumpy as the other two (though I love them all!) x
