I've teamed the sandals with a Joseph Ribkoff dress - I wrote about how every woman should have one. Ribkoff is a Canadian designer, and the dresses are always very flattering with drapy fabric and elegant designs. I found it on eBay, where I have a permanent search for Ribkoff dresses. It isn't on sale now so I've chosen a couple of other Ribkoff dresses in the shopping guide below.
The dress is a bit low cut on its own so I wore a lime green top from Kettlewell underneath, and added a cream bolero top, also from Kettlewell.
This shows the sandals close-up - aren't they pretty! I like a pale pearly nail polish for toes and this is my favourite, Happy Anniversary by OPI.
I took advantage of the gorgeous weather but it also presents its own challenges with glare, shadows, too bright light --- hence the indoor shots!

Athough the shoes are very elegant and stylish, I absolute adore that dress! Wow! I love it! The color, the print, the design, absolute amazing Gail!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy! Often these dresses look quite ordinary on the rail or page but they look wonderful when you wear them.
DeleteFabulous outfit, Gail, and those shoes look pretty perfect. I love how playful you look in these pics, is that what a Ribkoff does to a girl?!
ReplyDeleteHugs, x.
It makes me feel very twirly, so I guess it must! Hugs x
DeleteI totally agree with you about the Ribkoff brand Gail. The few items I have are amazing on. The shoes look perfect with the dress and they look really comfortable too.

They have a higher heel than I'm used to but they are very comfortable - I can see myself wearing them all day at a wedding x
DeleteOh, my goodness, this is a dress after my own heart. Flirty, swishy and GREEN! Mixed with animal print. You look absolutely sensational in it. And those nude sandals elongate your lovely legs so that you look like a Radio City Music Hall Rockette! Wow! This has to be one of my favorite all-time looks of yours.
ReplyDeleteOne question, I need shoes/sandals for my daughter's wedding. We have a dinner the night before to which I will wear a blue and green maxi dress. And then my 'wedding' dress is navy lace. Would a nude sandal like these work with those dresses? I am always so matchy matchy that I could only envision blue shoes. But your legs look so sassy and shapely and elegant in these sandals. Would something like them work for my dresses?
Definitely Leslie! This nude color works well with any type of dress.
DeleteYour dress is really gorgeous - and you look so comfortable twirling. I love it when a dress gives us confidence xx
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yet when it arrived, it looked so ordinary. The magic of these dresses happens when you put them on!
DeleteIsn't that dress looks fantastic?! I absolutely love the prints as well as the color. And my, isn't that the classiest shoes ever?
ReplyDeleteBoth your sandals and the dress are gorgeous! Love that colour on you Gail, it screams spring. Jacqui Mummabstylish
ReplyDeleteLove how the backdrop really gives way to the dress being the centerpiece of this shoot! You look absolutely beautiful and the green makes your eyes sparkle! You really wear the clothes; they don't wear you at all. What lovely confidence you have.
ReplyDeleteSo lovely of you Helen, thank you!
DeleteWhat fabulous shots those indoor ones are Gail - you look amazing! The dress really has the wow factor and I'd certainly wear it in a heartbeat too. And the sandals are perfect for the summer ahead - that neutral shade is ideal.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!

Great pair of shoes, I love the detailing! It will certainly be easy to pair that pretty neutral shade with almost anything. Have fun styling!
