Can you help me find some shoes?

Hello!
I finish university in a week and have my graduation party on the 14th. My friends and I are skipping the official grad ball and have booked a boat for our own party in the evening. Everyone's wearing ball dresses but I want to do something different so I'm going for a 50s rockabilly look. I've got shoulder-length curly blond hair which I'm going to dye lighter for the summer, so it should go quite easily into a 50s style, and I'm going to keep my makeup simple - just a cat's eye flick with liquid eyeliner and some brick-red lippy.
Anyway, all that aside, this is the dress I'm going to wear:

I'm trying to find some shoes to go with it and considering a fascinator too. Thing is I don't want to spend more than £40 on the shoes and any accessories to go with it - has anyone seen anything around that would go well? Revision is just too intense at the moment to spend a lot of time searching......

I've only really been looking at black shoes because of the colour of the belt; why would you avoid black ones, out of interest?
