Nude shoe queen having anxiety over fall transition

modgrl

Angie recently crowned me the nude shoe queen. She hit upon a trend in my spring and summer wardrobe before I even put my finger on it.

Here are a few of my recent WIW's but I really could have grabbed any from the last 3 months:

All of my summer shoes are either nude or low contrast due to their miraculous leg lengthening properties.

I'm starting to have anxiety over my fall and winter wardrobe because I'm not going to be able to use this styling device any more.

I picked up some great things at NAS but I just can't seem to get that excited about them. I know fall is a favorite dressing season around here. Anyone have advice for how to make this transition go more smoothly?

If you love the long legline look that nude shoes give you with bare legs, think about what color pants you have for fall and try to find shoes/booties in those colors. If you tuck in tops, you will get that same lengthening look from a similar color pant/shoe.

The key seems to be low contrast between your leg and shoe color, no? So with skirts and dresses, can you explore textured hose in muted colors? How about coordinating pants and shoe colors for a long leg line?

Chewy hit the nail on the head! Don't worry. You will be able to achieve the same thing for Autumn, Rita

Or maybe easy into other options by bookending with cognac?

You have been given ideas for pants. With frocks try nude microfishnets with nude closed toe shoes and booties. For more warmth you can layer nude pantyhose under the fishnets.

What Joy said. I plan to keep rocking the nude shoes all winter long!

Either wear your nude shoes w/ nude patterned hose, or wear tights to match your other shoes.
