I've NEVER understood the attraction to Doc Martens. I tried a pair on once, 'just because,' and thought, well, if I was going into the Army maybe.....but nah....

I'm a big fan of Taos brand shoes and have two pairs (brown and black) of the boot pictured below. That said, I paid nowhere near the price shown here......but I bought them about 3 yrs ago. Inflation? wow. These were super comfortable right out of the box.

Since you have to keep your items to a minimum have you ever tried Rothy's? I have several pairs and I love them. They don't offer much in the way of support so they wouldn't work for walking long distances but when I volunteer I'm on my feet for many hours and they're so comfortable. A pair of round toed Rothy's in a neutral color (beige/tan) would work with almost anything.

As for the two red sandals, the second, more casual one would be my choice. In one of my careers I was a personal shopper for a large department store and I loved putting together wardrobes for my clients.

I see that dress and I imagine tan brown leather pumps, white or tan deck shoes, or maybe even classic (big buckle) Birkenstocks.

every time i wear my Doc Martens i get compliments. that's not why i wear them. but people comment and smile. Two days ago at work i had to go in for Covid testing and the nurse who did the PCR test said his daughter has 3 pairs and don't let her see those pink ones of mine or it would be pair number 4 for her. How many shoes are there that a kid in grade school (his daughter) and a 64-year-old little old lady (me) can both get really happy about wearing.


Here is the floral pair i just got

A matching belt would give that dress some shape.

Then, a matching handbag would complete your ensemble.

This thread helped me see the dress differently, thanks everyone! I'd really like to get into wearing dresses more because it's a one-and-done outfit as opposed to having to put together separates.
