As a formerReplica Store buyer and current stylist and blogger, with So Susie, Susie Wright is a certified expert in putting together standout outfits. And yes, this includes creating forward looks with just two pieces—a dress and shoes.
After a bit of style trial and error, Wright zeroed in on five shoe trends she thinks work best with dresses of different silhouettes. Below you'll uncover the footwear picks in question, along with visual inspiration and testimonials from Wright herself. You'll notice that the shoe trends are all versatile and can be paired with everything from printed midi dresses to neutral maxi styles.
Interested in adding a fresh pair of shoes or a dress to your own wardrobe? There are also inspired shopping picks sprinkled throughout. Keep scrolling for more.
Metallic Shoes
"Metallic shoes and accessories are almost neutral at this point, and they work for every season. Whether you choose gold, silver, or anything in between, they’ll give your outfit a little flair and sparkle."
Retro Sneakers
"Sneakers are the shoe of choice right now, and they look super stylish when worn with dresses. Any casual dress goes! It can be a pretty floral dress or a tennis-inspired style like the one I’m wearing above. Everyone from London to Paris to New York is wearing sneakers with dresses. So comfy, and cute too."
Embellished Shoes
"Shoes with a little sparkle add so much style to a dress outfit. You might think they’re only for special events, but break them out whenever you feel like it. Not only can they be worn all year long, but they also look great with denim outfits."
Flat, Neutral Shoes
"Every closet should have a good neutral shoe collection. Neutrals are the easiest shoe choice to make because you can pair them with any outfit. Heels, sandals, or flats, you can’t go wrong here."
Strappy Sandals
"Strappy sandals are another perennial favorite, and this time of year they’re perfect for a special event that needs a little something extra."
