Sky and sea, sapphire, cornflower blue and cobalt - multifaceted shades of blue, so adored by clothing designers and us, customers. If you love the palette of this color, feel free to wear a dress of any shade.
Blue has not given up its position over the past few seasons. It is not in competition, as it is appropriate in any situation.
When creating an evening, business or casual look using a blue dress as a basic element, you need to properly complement it with appropriate shoes and accessories.
Classic shoes for a blue dress
When you want to look strict and noble, opt for models that follow traditional shades.
- Black and dark blue. They will always be appropriate. If you need to quickly put together an image, without thinking through it in detail, use the universal black pumps that every fashionista has in her wardrobe.In a combination of blue clothes and shoes, it is desirable that the latter match the tone of the outfit or are a little darker.
- Brown. A product made of thick fabric, with the addition of wool, cashmere, will be suitable for dark brown laconic models with a medium height thick heel.
- Beige. A fresh and most successful solution that will emphasize the length and slenderness of your legs. The right choice would be a simple dress that fits your figure, knee-length and matching skin tone or stockings, beige laconic pumps with high heels.
- White and gray. Options for the warm season. A summer blue dress made of light natural fabrics will be complemented and decorated with white or cream, light gray ballet flats and open wedge shoes. They will perfectly emphasize the lightness and mischief of a nautical-themed outfit (white and blue stripes). Suitable for sporty and urban style.
Important! The choice of white, light gray, beige shoes will be inappropriate in combination with stockings and tights of black and dark gray shades.
Bright colors
Shoes in bright colors will help you create a more daring, trendy look and play with unusual color schemes:
- Red. This is the color of women who are confident in their beauty. Not every one of us will decide to wear red clothes, but every beautiful lady should complement the outfit with a deep blue tone, red pumps and balance the image with a hat, belt or handbag, matching the shoes.
- Yellow and gold. An unusually bright and extravagant combination. If the decoration of the dress contains yellow details - buttons, collar, cuffs, shoes, select them to match them. Add a festive touch to your outfit with a pair of gold shoes. They will become a highlight.
Shoes to match the style of the dress
The choice of a pair for a dress should not be random, but should correspond to its style. A floor-length evening dress hides your legs, so without thinking twice, you can choose a simple model, but with high heels. The stiletto heel elongates the figure and makes it look stately.
The sheath dress is perfect for everyday work. It will be paired with laconic pumps, on a stable last, in a traditional color palette.
For short styles, for a walk on a summer day, it would be appropriate to choose loafers, ballet flats or pumps with wedges, square heels, and rich colors. This palette looks more interesting and less formal.
For a dress with a flared skirt, shoes with a rounded toe, thick heels or platforms are often used.
What to consider when choosing
When thinking about and trying on an image for yourself, pay attention to the following points:
- The more complex the finishing of the outfit, the more neutral the shoes should be.
- If the dress shines and shimmers with a lot of sequins and rhinestones, the same shoes will be completely tasteless. The emphasis is on one thing.
- The thinner the fabric, the more airy the evening look, the thinner and higher the heel.
- To appropriately fit bright pumps into your look, complement it with a detail of a similar shade (for example, a blue dress, red shoes, and a belt or earrings to go with them).
Stylish looks
Each image has its place and time. A girl who understands and accepts this fact, and has a sense of proportion, will always look dignified and interesting.
Office. Business style dictates its own strict rules. To choose shoes for a blue dress, in order to look strict and not defiant, you need to match it, black or beige. Acceptable options are dark gray, wine, olive shades in classic, closed models with low heels.
Everyday. This is where you can have a blast and have some fun by experimenting with colors, textures and accessories. For example, ballet flats, moccasins, Roman sandals, shoes with thick soles, with straps on the instep (Mary Jane model), in different bright summer colors, will go well with a denim sundress or shirt dress. An interesting look is a blue sundress with white shoes.
Important! Attractive color of the shoes, suitable for girls with long and slender legs. In other cases, it is worth stopping at neutral models with wedges and heels.
Cocktail. An undisputed classic is a blue cocktail dress paired with beige shoes. They will lengthen the line of the leg and hips, making it slimmer. With clothes in a tulip style, with a pencil skirt, shoes with a T-shaped strap, an open toe, or vice versa, where only the toe and heel are covered, look great.
Evening. For a long robe, with a wide or asymmetrical hem, it is advisable to purchase classic pumps or sandals, such as a palette of black, beige-gold, silver. Heel is a must. They can be complemented with lacquered, satin inserts or bows. If the dress is lace, you should avoid decorations on the shoes.
It doesn’t matter what kind of girl you are - sporty, business or glamorous. Each of us needs a blue dress. It will become a necessary acquisition and will decorate the wardrobe of any style, and it will be easy to choose a pair of shoes for it, observing a number of rules.
