Grey is the perfect color for all seasons and occasions, whether for offices, parties, or weddings. A grey-colored dress complements any skin color, so if you’re thinking about buying that beautiful grey dress you saw earlier, you should go for it. However, shoes can make or break an outfit. Grey is a neutral color that can give you an edgy or sedate look if paired with the right color of shoes. Pairing grey with shades other than neutrals is a sure way to create an eye-catching ensemble. So, why not try something out of your comfort zone? Here are some ideas for shoes that go well with a grey dress.
Nude/ Beige
Nude or beige is the closest to grey, as they are both neutral in tone; they complement one another. Here are some reasons to go for nude shoes.
Nude heels elongate legs
If you are planning to show your beautiful legs in that short or slitted grey dress, then nude heels are your go-to option. They will not only make your legs longer but also go well with any skin tone. Pair it with skin-colored stockings and make your legs rock!
Does not steal the spotlight
If you want to make your dress stand out, nude is the option. Nude shoes will not draw attention from your outfit; instead, they will complement the whole look.
