How about grey / silver footwear with your outfit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1237138 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 00:56:02 +0000 columbine(erin) 1237138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe the dress with a navy cardi, the mint shoes, and a navy statement necklace or scarf to tie it altogether.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1237081 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 23:49:16 +0000 Aida 1237081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think mint, white, navy, nude, blush, or metallic would all be great shoe color options. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1237075 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 23:46:53 +0000 rachylou 1237075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the idea of a navy or beige shoe. But I got to tell you, mint shoes with <i>this </i>mint dress would be daring! I think it would be pretty fab if you're up to putting on a little show. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1237064 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 23:23:48 +0000 columbine(erin) 1237064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh. I'm glad you linked to your outfit with mint sweater, Annabybe.

I have a bright mint cardi I'm wearing lately, and don't have white items, but navy works well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1237042 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 22:45:18 +0000 rabbit 1237042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a very similar turquoise dress that I'm planning to wear with turquoise/teal suede oxfords, at least sometimes. &nbsp; Other times I'll try everything from booties that bookend my hair to strappy sandals or pumps. &nbsp;I think Both a navy topper and the yellow one could be nice, but many other colors could work as well: other pastel sherberty shades, &nbsp;deeper reds, oranges&nbsp;or pinks, &nbsp;burgundy, denim (in a jacket).&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1237039 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 22:38:56 +0000 Ledonna N. 1237039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>a beige shoe or a bright white tennis shoe </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1237025 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 22:29:57 +0000 Gigi 1237025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would also recommend nude, or maybe a pair of cream-colored, shoes. Though to be honest, I don't think that wearing mint shoes would make you look like a tube of toothpaste...I think it might look really nice. Or like a good dream instead of a nightmare.&nbsp;:^) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1237011 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 22:23:57 +0000 jackiec 1237011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All good ideas so far! I usually lean towards something nude, however, those mint sneaks are fun!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1237007 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 22:22:13 +0000 shiny 1237007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A dose of neutral will tone down the mint. Nude/tan, white, metallic. You could even do an animal print (I consider those neutrals!). I see you have dark brown hair, yes? Zebra / leopard / bronze / gold on your feet would look amazing to bookend the look. You could even go with black footwear, provided it was strappy enough (i.e., not sure I'd do black sneakers but caged booties or Birks would work).&nbsp;</p> <p>If you went with neutral accents for footwear and for your bag, then I think the yellow cardigan works just fine!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1236981 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 21:39:34 +0000 carter 1236981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the yellow cardigan with it. I'd probably wear nude/tan or white/off white shoes. The mint shoes would look great with white jeans rolled up or blue boyfriends. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1236980 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 21:37:20 +0000 dustt 1236980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think with the yellow cardi nude would be good - if you're going to go with a navy sweater then I'd vote navy shoes - BTW - I love mint with Navy!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-wear-mint-without-looking-like-a-toothpaste-nightmare#post-1236977 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 21:35:32 +0000 fleur_avenue 1236977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a mint green dress that I was trying to pair with a pale yellow<br /> cardi (ala Zooey Deschanel in New Girl)&nbsp; but I am not sure what<br /> color/kind of shoes to wear with it.&nbsp; It is a bright mint, and I'm<br /> afraid wear mint shoes with it would make me look like a tube of<br /> toothpaste.&nbsp; Should I go for tan or beige shoes or go with the mint as<br /> planned?&nbsp; I do a lot of walking so I ordered some mint sneakers, but<br /> they're huge<br /> and I don't know if I want to even bother trying to order another pair.&nbsp;<br /> I'm thinking maybe I should just scrap the yellow cardi and wear navy blue instead. </p>
