A Holiday dress always needs a pair of hot red shoes!
I think that the 5th choice, the Women’s Fortune in Bronze/Black Suede is a great choice. The super high heel with the contrasting bronze makes for that seasonal spice that will complement that satin trim in your dress and balance the one shoulder affect without taking away too much attention of the detail of the dress. I think it will also balance well with the print of the rose print lace stockings. The closed toe also helps in these brutal temperatures! Happy Holidays!
I think number three would look classy.
My pick is number 5 as well.
I would go with #3. I love the ruffle detail!
The ruffle detail in #3 would be fabulously gorgeous with your dress!
#3!
I’m voting for #2 because I think a pop of red will make your outfit standout in the sea of LBDs. Love your tights!
#2 for the red! You’ll stand out.
#2 The pop of color will be fantastic with the LBD!!
#2! Red. ‘Nuff said;)
Definitely #5! The metallic detail makes these the perfect holiday boot!
My choice is #3
#3!!! With the layering of your dress along with the pattern of the hose; I’d go with something feminine & just a touch of detail – and since I’m a classic style by heart, I love the edging of these shoes. (The fact they’re suede helps a little, too 😉 Either way; love the outfit!
I would wear #1, the simplicity of a black patent leather pump will compliment the details of of the lace stockings.
Number 3.
I’m somewhat torn between the red, blue/black lace, or the bronze/black booties! lol I love them all, but since I can only choose one, I’d go with the red #2!! It IS the Holidays…& anything else would be too much black! It’s a party, not a funeral…lol Swap your clutch out for something in a red tone, or give your nails a fresh coat of red paint & you’re all set;) You’ll be making an entrance for sure!
I would have to go with #1. The dress is a little edgy, with one shoulder, and I think the patent leather will really pick up the satin striping on the dress,without overpowering the dress the way some of the other more detailed and comnplicated styles would.
I pick # 2 the red ones for sure! It would be a great pop of color! With some red lipstick and red nail polish would make the perfect look!
Got to go with #2 in the red for the holidays! You’ve got to have color—otherwise too much black.
#1… classy and fun – awesome look!! LOVE the lace hose!
#5 Very classy and will surely compliments the dress!
I keep going back to #3 even though 5 are really sharp. The suede & ruffle are soft & sexy.
Definitely #2! Perfect for a little flair and can’t beat wearing a little red to a holiday party!
#3 Very classy, I like the red one’s but the ruffle stole my heart!
Red shoes! #2!!! 🙂
Definitely #1 – Gorgeous shoes but they won’t take away from the dress or the hose. I love the red shoes but eyes would all go to those shoes rather than your lovely face.
The #5 Booties are adorable!!
I really feel that the tights would look a little busy with most of those shoes. #3, not a little reminiscent of Jeffrey Campbell’s gorgeous unicorn-inspired shoes, would look great with the whole outfit. With quieter tights, I’d say #5.
#5 is perfect for holiday parties because of the closed toes! If you go out and walk around your feet will be warm 🙂 and stylish!
Number 5!!!!
Go for #2! It is hot, hot, hot! And will give the dress a pop!
Thanks for a great giveaway~!

CARLOS BY CARLOS SANTANA Women’s Windsor in Red/Red, #2, as if you would need a reason to wear this HOT ASS pair of shoes!!! They’d make a MuMu look fashionable!! The pop of color is PERFECT!
I have to go with the pop of red!!!
Absolutely #2! The red ones are seriously fiece and you need some color!
Deffinately #3!
Those red shoes are amazing, but I think #4 would look best with your black dress and lacy stockings.

The CARLOS BY CARLOS SANTANA Women’s Windsor in Red/Red would look good but without the lace hose. With the lace hose, I would wear the CARLOS BY CARLOS SANTANA Women’s Prestige in Blue/Black Lace.
What cool choices! OK, so ultimately I think #5 gives a bit of sparkle, edge, uniqueness. Plus it can be worn dressed up or down with the boots doing all the talking. Also can be worn with skirts, dresses and pants, with tights or hose. They look sexy, festive and very Carlos.
you know this is a very very hard decision! In the end I pick 3.
Phew that was hard, I really love them all!
I love the No 1. I think the dress and the lace have enough going on, these shoes are simple yet elegant, they will go with anything and add to the outfit without taking anything away from it.
Definitely the red ones!!! Add a red lip and some red nails and you will be decked out for the season!! Have a fun time at your holiday party. For more fashion advice, check out our website!
I vote number 5! Booties are perfect for winter: Stylish and warm!
Absolutely #2! As far as I’m concerned, nothing makes an outfit pop like red shoes, and those are super cute. Plus, it’s the holidays. Red is very appropriate.
Number 2! Red and delish!
Booties! #5 love them!
CARLOS BY CARLOS SANTANA Women’s Windsor in Red/Red! I love the red!
#5, these booties would look so fab with your dress!
#1 for sure. You need a nice, classic pair of black platform pumps like that that will make your legs look super long — and they won’t be too much with busy tights.
Number 5..those booties would compliment your dress gorgeously!
