What a Deal!

So, I went up north this weekend (this means to Provo or Salt Lake, for all of you non-boonie-ites) to see some ex-roommates. I had a lovely time. Then on Saturday, I went shopping. I'd been looking through my closet and decided that most of my dresses/skirts are black, brown, or denim, and thus I needed to add color to my wardrobe. I learned that shopping is not nearly as fun by yourself. I tried on some dresses at the store, and couldn't tell if they looked good on me or not. You would think I could, but alas, I apparently often count on a second opinion from someone. I did buy two new dresses at a total cost of...thirty dollars! So far, at least one of them looks good on me. The other is a slinky red dress, which is not my normal color, so I don't know what color of shoes to wear with it. Do I have to wear red shoes or is there some other basic color that would work? Any input from readers with fashion sense would be appreciated. If you don't have fashion sense, please do not add your input as it will just confuse me. Thanks for reading my blog and have a great day!

black shoes? silver, gray? i think they have to be slinky and high heels, to go with a red dress.

Since it is a slinky red dress, I agree with Cynthia. Heels would be optimal, but I think you could work some flats if they are strappy.

Come on...my lack of fashion sense would confuse you? Meh.

I will be home on the 7th. So I think you totally should come play. I am excited to come back yet sad to. Mixed feelings are always weird. later gator!

P.S. I love that there were two posts so close together in time. YOU GO GIRL!

Black shoes. . . I don't have any fashion sense, but I will still put in my two bits.

I say champagne colored strappy sandals that have a kitten heel (that would be a heel around less then 1 inch tall). It's a perfect staple to add to your wardrobe. The color matches practically everything but yet isn't totally in contrast to strong colors. And I would love to see you in a red slinky dress. Va Va Va Voom!
