Question about LK Bennett shoes: Is nude the same as taupe/light taupe?

[SerendipityAlways]

Drooling over the LK Benentt sledge court shoes. but I am confused about colours. Is the taupe/light taupe the same and are they essentially the nude colour? On the LK Bennett site theres a light taupe option www.lkbennett.com/shoes/courts/CCSLEDGE214PATENT whereas on the House of Fraser website, its a taupe option www.houseoffraser.co.uk/L.K.+Bennett+Sledge+platform+court+shoes/152623504,default,pd.html#BVRRWidgetID

Bump - anyone??

[HousewifeFromHeaven]

On the house of Fraser website it states the colour of the shoes ie taupe, but then clarifies the colour after. So, hof are telling you that 'taupe' is a light taupe colour.

Thanks HousewifefromHeaven - I guess my next question then is, is taupe/light taupe the same as nude??

[HousewifeFromHeaven]

It depends on what you consider nude. I have a pair of Rosie wedges in white, but it's an off white colour - some would say nude. However I would consider the taupe quite nudey!! Check out the white/off white for comparison. If you like I can pm you a pic of my off white ones.

I think that pale taupe like that is very much in the nude range but some nudes are even paler and some have a pinky tinge.

I don't like the pinky ones and, if I ever do buy nude (am getting a little tired of it now, but do see it goes with a lot), would definitely go for the LKB version, having seen it in RL.
