Dyeing light grey suede wedges hot pink

I have size 9 feet so buying shoes last minute in a specific colour is almost impossible.

I need hot pink shoes to match the flower detail in a Joules dress.

Has anyone had any success in dyeing shoes?

Can you recommend a brand? And can I get it all sorted by Saturday morning?!!!

Why do they need to match. Can't you wear them grey?

Will find a picture of the dress

Your bag and shoes don't necessarily have to match either. Putin a pale grey throw if you want to tie it all together.

Keep them grey! I think matching shoes with bag is not a thing anymore

Put on. Obviously don't try to accessorise Vladimir Putin.

Can you recommend any jewellery?

Putin could drape around my shoulders pretty well I think

PS I don't like the huge bow on the shoes but they fit and that's quite an acheivement!

I've never dyed suede shoes and it gone well. It seems to blotch!

I think it's gorgeous as it is.

fab outfit, definitely no dyeing required, spend the money on a glass of fizz :)

I think that's a lovely outfit, and the shoes are neutral enough that they would go with most colours. Have a lovely time!

Don't dye them!
That all matches beautifully

Definitely don't dye them, the grey is perfect. I've dyed loads of clothes but never shoes..I'd be worried about feet getting hot and the dye coming off and staining them !!

Defo keep the shoes as they are, what a gorgeous outfit.

It all looks fab together. Getting everything very matchy-matchy is too old fashioned/try hard so you will look much more stylish and pulled together with your subtly toning choices.

Thank you for the lovely responses! Looking forward to wearing it now!
