When you think of Sandra Bullock, you don’t think flashy and sexy. But that was exactly how she was yesterday when she attended the U.K. premiere of her new movie, ‘The Heat’.

The Oscar-winning actress graced the event in a black backless Victoria Beckham dress that exposed a matching brassiere on purpose. And as we scanned her outfit, we were even more surprised (and delighted) by the heels she paired the frock with — mixed-media strappies that are simply divine and (relatively) affordable — the L.A.M.B. ‘Payton’ sandals. Wowza! Who’d have thought that Sandy here was into the high-low mix?!

Here’s the thing. Sandra wasn’t the only star in a pair of knockout heels at the premiere. Natalie Dormer from ‘Game of Thrones’ also attended the event in a really stunning pair of sandals we couldn’t take our eyes off of. The shoes have straps that are beautifully cut out and sculpted. She styled them with an ALICE by Temperley Pre-Fall 2013 ensemble consisting of a lace-sleeved silk keyhole top and skirt.

Now, here’s the ultimate question, between Sandra Bullock and Natalie Dormer, who wore the hotter pair at the premiere? Whose sandals would you grab and wear? Which pair are you more inclined to get if you have the moolah to spend away?
