Do you already own or are you considering a purchase?<br /> My hair is graying but used to be similar in color to yours, and I loved tortoiseshell specs or jewelry. Probably my favorite jacket was black wool with tortoiseshell buttons and silver zippers on the pockets. Normally black was too harsh with my coloring, but I always got compliments when I wore it.<br /> Two thumbs up on the shoes. Hope we see them soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tortoiseshell-shoes-2-questions#post-1235019 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 18:58:21 +0000 Psyche 1235019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely, that combination sounds so stylish.<br />If the outfit is black you could wear any colour shoes to make a statement without looking gaudy, it's a common choice,</p> <p>However tortoiseshell is so versatile and&nbsp;unique you'll look elegant and eclectic no matter what colour you wear them with (just think of all the different colours of trench coats and macs with&nbsp;tortoiseshell buttons).</p> <p>Brown might have been a little boring (and leopard print, a personal choice!), but with tortoiseshell you are elevated to a whole new level - and you won't even look as if you tried! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tortoiseshell-shoes-2-questions#post-1235011 Sun, 27 Apr 2014 18:46:14 +0000 em 1235011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1. Can they be stylishly worn with a black outfit?&nbsp;</p> <p>2. If one's hair is dark brown with natural blond and the occasional red highlights, do they suffice as a "bookend"? </p>
