Wearing Black Dress. What Color Shoes to Jazz it up?

I'm going to a wedding next weekend and am wearing a plain black dress (link below). I want to style it with cute shoes and accessories. I've seen a bunch of combinations. However, I'm not sure what's hip/current/classic. Any recs for what color shoes would go best? I'm a total dork about how to style myself! TIA!

Re: Wearing Black Dress. What Color Shoes to Jazz it up?

  • Cute dress!

     

    Hot pink, bright blue or even a shoe with a print would be cute.

  • With black, you could probably get away with any color you like! Red would probably be the classic accent shoe color. I've also seen women wear bright pink or yellow. Turquoise seems to be very "in" right now.

  • I think anything but yellow would be good. (Too bumble-bee)

    I would do a leopard or bright, hot purple, or even a totally obnoxious glitter shoe. It depends on what's in your budget and what you find. That dress is like a blank canvas - almost anything goes!

  • I vote leopard peep-toe, cute dress!
  • Thanks, ladies!

    Ok....Any thoughts about these choices?  I've eliminated red (not my thing) and orange (too Halloween). I'm open to any other colors. I wanted to lighten up the black. So, lighter colors are more interesting....although I am intrigued by leopard print shoes (never thought of that).

  • Would a two-tone shoe like this work? I like the turquoise color. But, I'm not sure the cream color would work. Here are other coral selections (all from Kohls and on sale). I'm trying not to spend so much on a color I wouldn't wear that often (50 bucks or less).
