Hot pink shoes can go with a lot of other colors too but are, well hot pink and so may be extremely versatile and fantastic for your wardrobe, but not neutral-ish. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223868 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 18:00:51 +0000 Sona 1223868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>pink/blush can absolutely be a neutral. It all depends on your skin tone. Go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223858 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 17:50:38 +0000 AviaMariah 1223858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Thistle said. &nbsp;And I am so intrigued by Angie's client who wore blue shoes to book end her eyes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223837 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 17:25:15 +0000 Thistle 1223837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think any color is age dependent.</p> <p>As for can it be a neutral . . . well, I am so pale that my skin tend to be closer to blush in color than tan. So, a blush shoe actually looks more nude on me than a tan one does.</p> <p>I think that would also depend on your wardrobe if it doesn't function as a nude for you.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223824 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 17:12:41 +0000 rabbit 1223824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After trying on a number of 'nude' tan or beige shoes that made my skin look like death warmed over, I tried on a cool pink pair, and all of a sudden my feet looked great! &nbsp; They didn't 'match' my skin tone&nbsp;but they worked well as an accent that went with many outfits and they made my skin&nbsp;glow. &nbsp; &nbsp;Too bad they ended up being uncomfortable, I'm still looking for that color pink in another shoe. </p> <p></p> <p>Also any age can wear pink IMO :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223803 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 16:41:27 +0000 Aziraphale 1223803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd say yes, especially if it blends with the colour of your feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223760 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 15:26:48 +0000 Danielle 1223760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think definitely! Especially the paler pinks Maybe not so much hot pinks because those would be more of an accent, but the lighter pinks, yes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223751 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 15:18:18 +0000 Catnip 1223751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear pink a lot, and I'm way over 50.&nbsp; If you like it, wear it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223714 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 14:19:54 +0000 Angie 1223714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sure. They can be YOUR neutral. A hundred thumbs up.&nbsp;</p> <p>I had a client who had light blue flats that she wore with everything last year because they bookended her light blue eyes. It was magical.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223668 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 13:25:59 +0000 Emily 1223668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have pale, cool skin and have a pair of blush&nbsp;blush flats that I wear&nbsp;as a neutral shoe. &nbsp;So I vote yes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223664 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 13:20:50 +0000 Neel 1223664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Depends! If it works with a lot of things in your closet then it is a neutral to you. Although a very pale pink that is close to your skin color might pass off as nude.</p> <p>Eta: Pink is not a neutral for me! Red, yes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223660 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 13:16:05 +0000 Golden 1223660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote yes, I think pink shoes are cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223638 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 12:53:17 +0000 carter 1223638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bring on the pink shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223628 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 12:27:54 +0000 Liz 1223628@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see anything age related about a pink shoe. As for a neutral, I'm not sure, but I'm also not sure that it matters? My bright orange shoes certainly aren't neutral, but I find them incredibly versatile.&nbsp;If this is a color that you'd wear with a whole bunch of clothes in your closet, then it sounds like it's a versatile color for you, even if it not&nbsp;technically a neutral.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223625 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 12:11:55 +0000 kkards 1223625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm 50 and I'd wear a pink flat.<br /> As for the question of is it a neutral, I think it would depend on the shoe, but I would try it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223620 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 12:05:38 +0000 MRL 1223620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am over 50 and love light pink! I vote yes on the cute light pink flats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-a-pink-shoe-be-a-neutral#post-1223606 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 11:44:34 +0000 Aquamarine 1223606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can pink be considered a neutral? I have seen so many cute pink flats this year and the pale ones especially appeal to me. I am drawn to neutral/nude shoes in warmer weather because they lengthen my leg line and I am 5'4" on a good day. I have a couple of nude/tan shoes, which work great with my skin tone in the summer but would like to shake it up a bit. </p> <p>Is a light pink flat too young for a 50 year old? Would you consider it a neutral? </p>
