The footwear and outfit combination would be more of an issue to me than matching tights.<br />Contrasting tights can look very fun and fashion-forward, but&nbsp;I always have to&nbsp;approach that pretty&nbsp;carefully--some types of shoes and colors lend themselves better to that, the degree of contrast or color depth. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brownblack-tights-shoes-coordination#post-1304415 Tue, 15 Jul 2014 21:30:04 +0000 K.M. 1304415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Melinda!

I just can't think straight! Please help!<br />If I have brown shoes (rich, light-medium chestnut brown), what color tights should I wear? Brown, black, or otherwise? (The shoes are:&nbsp;maryjane pumps with a rounded toe, medium heel; and dark brown riding boots.)<br />They look most harmonious with the brown tights, but is the monochrome combo dated? The pumps&nbsp;look super weird with the black tights!&nbsp;<br />If I have time I'll post pics, but for now I thought maybe someone has a ready answer...</p>
