For those who own Anthro's Bailey Pieced Column dress...
I previously posted about this (and talked to mavjen) who suggested nude sandals with it (she saw a Nestie wearing hers with SE Gigi, which I eventually bought myself 
Since it's still upper 60/high 50s, I can't really wear my Gigi sandals here quite yet, but it's nice enough not to have to wear boots (which I'd prefer not to now).
Are there any flats/pumps you'd wear with it (at least until it's warmer out and I can wear actual sandals)?
fwiw- I have the white/taupe and the navy/taupe colors...
Re: For those who own Anthro's Bailey Pieced Column dress...
I mentioned other shoe suggestions in that earlier thread:
"I've worn knee-high boots, ankle booties, and wedges so far. I will wear them with either neutral or metallic sandals when it gets warmer or nude pumps or peep toe pumps, depending on the look I want."
Here's the thread if you want to see pictures: http://community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/64550920/ShowThread.aspx
If you don't want to do nude pumps, then try a heeled wedge. I have on a black pair with my black dress in the thread. I'd do this nude wedge:

Thanks mav
Q for you...
Nude pumps- I have a pair that's patent, but do you think the patent pump is too dressy for a more casual dress?
You are very welcome! I think patent nude pumps are perfect with the dresses. Since the color is lighter, it gives more range to a patent finish making it appropriate for dressy to a semi-dressy casual look. That's why you'll see patent nude leather with a rope wedge material or even cork.
Enjoy your dresses, I love them so.
