I have 1 pair of ballroom shoes that I wear with everything. They are gold and silver so they go with everything. They are so comfy. I think they have a 2.5" or 3" heel. If you're not used to dancing in heals, then all you need is to practice in them. I found it easier to dance in heals. You can also get a pair of nude ones so they're neutral. A friend of mine has a pair of light tan ones that she added sparkles to. I think Sumaya did the same thing recently. Ballroom shoes are definitely more expensive in a studio. Do you have a dance supply store near you? I found mine at a local dance store and they were around $65 or $70, I think. But I have wide feet and I wanted to try them on. There are lots of websites you can buy them from for a better price. Here's one:
