dress accessories/shoes advice please!!!!

ive just got a gorgeous new dress from ebay, a lipsy one and im soooo in love with it. The listing said its grey/silver but i think its more minky coloured. Anyway my dilema now is shoes for it. There are some diamantes on the side of the dress and ive fallen in love with a gorgeous pair of silver heels on ebay but im not sure if they'd go, theyre strappy and have glitter on them -im worried that they might be too much cos the dress is soooo pretty.

Just checked the label and the dress says caramel colour wise

link to the dress is here, just googled and am EXTREMELY happy now having seen the price, i paid £14 del off ebay :j:j

the shoes im looking at, well 2 pairs now.........http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/120848086119?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

i love the first ones best, but the height is putting me off slightly, as well as the glitter, so im leaning more towards the 2nd ones

all opinions welcome please :)

    personally I think the second ones would go better with the dress you've got - as you think the dress is super pretty and it's the main part of the outfit you don't want the shoes to detract from it, which I think the glittery ones would.
    carpe diem :cool:

    I also prefer the bow courts with the dress you bought, but with courts you have to make sure they fit perfectly because there are no straps to hold your foot in.

    You really don't want to trip & face plant at your party :p

    well i didnt go for the silver glittery ones in the end or the other court shoes, i found a stunning pair of lipsy ones for sale on my local fb selling page and am collecting them later-they're gorge and in the new season collection. Woman bought them and didnt like them only wore them a couple of times apparently, Im paying £35 for them, dont mind paying that bit more for some since the dress was sooo cheap lol.

    Theyre a nude-ish/pink colour but have some 'bling' on the heel and were £80 new!!!! EEEEEKKK god i couldnt imagine spending that on shoes-even before having had kids!!!

    link to them.......
