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."
