Minimalist Dressers Take Note: These Neutral Colored Shoes Will Go With Everything You Own
I love a print or splash of color as much as the next person, but when it comes to footwear I’ll happily wear on repeat, neutral-colored shoes are a must. Why? Whether you’re a minimalist dresser with a closet full of simple staples or love to mix things up with different hues, neutral designer shoes will work every time. Plus, if you’re investing in designer footwear, you want to make sure you can wear them with as many of your go-to looks as possible! With that in mind, I’ve put together a stunning selection of neutral-colored heels and flats for every dress code. My apologies in advance, you’re going to want to own every pair on the list…
Neutral colored Shoes You'll Wear On Repeat
If you want to buy every pair of neutral color designer shoes you see (honestly, same) ask yourself these questions before parting with your cash. One: how often will I wear them? Be brutal. If you can’t think of at least three to five outfits they’ll go with off the top of your head, leave them behind, they’re not worth the money. Two: Are they comfortable? I can’t tell you the amount of beautiful but seriously uncomfortable shoes I’ve talked myself into buying. If you know right off the bat that no amount of plasters and gel cushions could ever make them wearable, move on to the next pair on your wishlist.
Now, two pairs I highly recommend that tick all the right boxes? Firstly, the Ibor leather slingback sandals by Neous. If you can’t resist a strappy sandal (again, same) these are the ones to go for. Chic and comfortable to wear all night long, throw these on to elevate any dress instantly. Speaking of which, I recommend the Jewel mini dress by Doen and Serapian mini secret leather tote for the perfect late summer evening ensemble. Meanwhile, the backless, cream Stina mules by Aeyde are the ultimate slip-on heels for late summer RSVP’s. Pair yours with Doen’s Clarinet dress and the small VoYou leather tote by Givenchy for the ultimate combination of comfort and effortless style this season and next.

Neutral Colored Heels For Special Occasions
Have a special event coming up? Do yourself a favor and opt for neutral-colored heels with a hint of sparkle. Firstly, they’ll lengthen your silhouette and go with any neutral dress you pair them with. Secondly, they look effortlessly chic, and isn’t that the dream? For example, the Rosie slingback pumps by Amina Muaddi. Made to go with party dresses, these shoes will shine with silhouettes like the La Lune high-neck midi dress by Shona Joy and bags like the Whitney croc-effect leather shoulder bag by Tom Ford.
Meanwhile, I mean it when I say the Sparkle heels by Tony Bianco will go with every cocktail dress. However, they’ll look particularly amazing with the Pailette mini dress by Kim Shui. So, pair these two together for drinks and dinner dates, and complete your look with the VoYou medium leather shoulder bag by Givenchy – before it sells out.
