^I think you can wear almost any colour with a skirt like that, just make sure that the top is not printed or anything. I have a printed cream and orange skirt, and wear it with lots of things. I think green and yellow would look especially nice, as well as purple.... but seriously, anything. Except maybe red!! I usually somewhat match my shoes to either my top or the skirt, so white would be fine, as well as any other neutral, like metallics or brown.

Also, would white shoes be okay? Or something else?


You can wear a pink or white shirt with it, but like ^ said, you can also wear other colours such as green or yellow. Make sure there's no patterns or striped or polka dots or whatever on the top because you don't want to have 2 prints clashing in your outfit. I think a beige top would look nice too. Try and avoid red ( red & pink just never look good together) and black (I'm assuming your skirt is a spring/summery skirt, so black would just make it look ...drab).

As for shoes, I think it depends on how printed your skirt is. If your skirt is white with a LOT of print or large print so that the white background only peeks through the pink flowers a little, then white shoes would be fine. Otherwise, I personally would avoid white shoes because when you match white with white like that, it tends to look a bit too awkward and grannyish. Or it looks like you belong in a hospital. For summer, I think bronze OR gold strappy flat sandals would be nice. Nothing too heavy though. Perhaps something like this..?

DeadDisco: I think you should wear a solid color shirt. White or pink would look fine, but othjer colors like yellow, cream, or green would look nice. Basically anything! Like ^&^^ said, try to avoid red. The only bad thing about wearing a pink top with it might be that it could look like your trying to match with it, if the pink is a different shade.
As for shoes, I think gold flats would look quite nice with it. I would stick with metallics. Gold sandals would look really cute with it as well. Something like Lil_PinkBunnie suggested!
Good luck, sounds like a cute skirt!

Thanks guys.
I'm going to wear it with this pink cardigan so I'll be having a white skirt, with bits of pink, and a pink top.
Now for shoes, I'm thinking gold is probably still the best bet? Only I'm wearing this for work so I need to have closed-toe shoes, or barely peep-toe. And preferrably heals. Lil_PinkBunnie said to not wear something too heavy.. so what should I do?

This is the skirt:

I noticed the model has dark purpleish shoes. Would that work? It looks okay on her.

^ I think the purple shoe looks fine, but a gold one might look better. At the same time though, if you're planning on wearing it for a work purple might be better as it's a little more conservative than gold is...gold would be okay if the rest of your outfit was a bit more muted but because your skirt is pink it'd probably be a good idea to mute the accessories.

Whatever colour shoe you decide though, a delicate/strappy shoe would be the best choice; a heavy or clunky shoe wouldn't balance right with the breezyness of the skirt.

^^I would go for a gold pair of gladiator or t-strap sandals. Even gold ballet flats would be fine.

Well since it needs to be closed toe, I think your best option would be simple ballet flats. In gold or bronze.

I have a pink dress. Almost hot pink, and I'm just wondering what colour shoes to wear with it.
At first I was thinking white, but possibly black?

^Don't wear white!! It will look way too outdated, too 80s, especially if the dress is hot pink! Black would be fine, but I'd prefer metallics -- bronze, silver, gold.

Back again with shoe matching problems. I guess I suck at this.
Anyway, I just bought these Keds because I think they're very cute but I'm not sure what colours I should be wearing them with.



I'll likely be wearing jeans with it, I'm just unsure of what colour tops to wear.

I also got these ones:

I'm not too worried about matching those but I'll still take suggestions.

^i think any warm colours in that family would work iwth the top shoes. like reds, orange, yellow, etc. also nuetrals of course.
i dont think youd have much of a problem with the second pair, theyre pretty neutral.

^^I actually think that any colour would work. Usually, I don't like to match my tops with my shoes so I think it'd be okay as long as the pattern (if there is one on the top) isn't too busy.

ooh keds! i remember when i got a pair YEARS ago, they hurt my feet so much! lol.

anyway, with the orange one, i would probably wear a casual/plain/less busy tshirt or hoodie. usually with bright flats, i like to wear mainly neutral colours because i want my shoes to "pop". haha or to be one of the main focuses, if that made any sense!

^^^^^I'm pretty sure any warm colour as well.
the triangle of matching is shoes->belt->hat->shoes.. etc. etc.
so I think a nice tan leather belt would go nicely. and then a nice warm colour shirt. =)
hope I've helped

I have a TNA wifebeater that is fluorescent yellow, and I love the brightness but I don't know what colors to match it with other than black?

Fluorescent yellow is an easy color to wear during summer. If you're more conservative, a simple pair of jeans or short shorts would be great. The vibrant color would make them pop. Personally, I would wear a fluorescent yellow top with neon pink or purple skinnies. It can seem crazy and adventurous, but the flashy yellow becomes less noticeable when it is combined with another bright color for the bottom.

^^I love bright colors! Pair it with jeans, jeans shorts, black pants/shorts, anything! It would be cute to layer two bright colors together.

I agree, if you're daring enough go for bright colours! It'd look great with bright pink or a nice bright purple. If not, try pairing it with grey - yellow (no matter how bright it is) looks great with grey and it's also a hot combination this season/next!

I loovve this turtleneck dress ! I would personally wear it with tights and ankle boots instead of jeans to have a va-va-voom look. You could also add a belt in a contrasting color to make it more form-fitting. A thick or even a thin belt would make all the difference.

^ Exactly what she said! I think it'd look great with tights and boots. Definitely cinch the waist with a belt to give some more definition to your figure. If you still feel the look is lacking, add a few interesting bangles in fun colours to give a bit of a punch to the outfit.

ok so i just got these socks from american apparel, but i'm not quite sure what kind of shoes to wear with them besides heels (which makes my legs look super long, so dats awesome) oh and when i wear them they scrunch a little at the top cuz my legs aren't long and i'm only 5'4 so it scrunches but i like it like that...anyways the question here is what kind of shoes should i wear with them? do you think tall boots would look nice? TIA!!

^ I think those might look a little funny with boots if you could see bare skin at the top, just because it would break up the line of your leg a lot and probably just make you shorter, you know, cause like you'd have a whole block of colour from your boot, then from the sock, and then from the skin at the top. But if there isn't any bare skin at the top, then yeah definitely go ahead and wear them with boots. Flats would be cute too!

cappuccino_cream: I've seen girls wear those... with metallic hot pants at clubs =/ but those go up pretty high right? Do they just look like you're wearing tights? In that pic, that's what they look like... I dunno, I guess I'd treat them as tights =S ?

Okay so I have a bunch of old fobby clothes from last summer and I still love them but haven't worn them at all this year, and I feel bad about that.
I've gained a lot of weight since last year and honestly, I'm sick of looking mismatched.
What do I wear with these?
(the pink thing is a tube top)
