We select shoes by color

Not only the shoe style, but also the color scheme should be in harmony with the clothes, so we take into account the following nuances:

• The best option when the dress and shoes differ only in the saturation of the shade. A blue outfit will look good with blue shoes, brown - with beige.
• You can choose a model of contrasting color. In this case, additional accessories should be present in the tone of the shoe - it can be a handbag or bracelet.
• Shoes of any color are arranged with a neutral outfit. In this case, red shoes look especially impressive, but this draws all the attention to the legs.
• If the dress is with a pattern, then it is possible to pick up “little creatures” of the color that dominates the pattern. You can pick up shoes with a pattern.
• There are colors that harmoniously combine with each other, for example, for a green dress - brown shoes, for pink - lilac, orange combined with pink. Black and white is a win-win.
• Some colors should not be brought together. For example, burgundy shoes do not “fit” into a red dress, but beige to a soft pink dress.

Important! Under a polka-dot dress, you can experiment, and take shoes of bright colors, for example, blue or green, but if in doubt, a classic will always come to the rescue - black or white shoes.
