What to wear with these?

Alessi

Will they work with a medium blue longsleeved shirt, black pencil skirt and black tights? I am concerned that the blue shirt and red shoes will be too much disconnected colour.

Thanks for your help!

Cheers

Thankyou!
I will post a picture when I can get to a big enough mirror or reflective shop window

Sure, that would work. Also they would look smashing with a black and white print! Or maybe even animal print!

To be honest, I'd wear those beauties with ANYTHING (your outfit sounds fab!)

Thanks for the help! I was wondering if you think the rose necklace I just added a photo of would help to tie it together?
This is my first pair of non black shoes btw. I am a bit of a novice with colour. I have always worn mostly black and white.

To me, these can be worn as a neutral - I'd wear just about anything with them!

These shoes are beautiful! Sounds like your outfit idea would look great - especially with the subtle red tie-in from the necklace.

Oh thankyou, what a relief. I am only just starting to learn how to include colour and how to put outfits together and I am not at all confident about my choices. Reading YLF has been a great help.

Also it never crossed my mind to think of red as a neutral. It is a great idea that I would love to take up as I love red. Are there any cases to be aware of where this might not work?
Remember I am a real n00b at this

The outfit you described sounds great! It will look nice with the necklace too, but I wouldn't say it's necessary to have another red element in the outfit

Those shoes seem to want to go with everything. The rose necklace tie in is awesome, but I agree that they don't necessarily need it.

A bright red or other pure colour one-piece dress to go with the high heel. Because there are already two colors, black and red on the surface of shoes.
I don't like difference colours everywhere.

These are such gorgeous shoes! I cannot for the life of me walk in such high heels..but these are totally lustworthy! The red-blue-black combination sounds lovely - throwing in a beige somewhere might also work! While the necklace is pretty - it really isnt necessary to tie your outfit in!

I hear you on the venturing into wearing more "non boring" pieces though! Baby steps!

Lovely shoes! Angie recently did a post on wearing bright colored shoes, which might help you think of ways for you to wear these shoes comfortably, although as others have said, red shoes like these can be thought of as a neutral. I think they'll work really well with the outfit you've planned but a picture when you can would be great.
