very bright cobalt blue jeans and?

I never do colour but am beginning to get into it. I have some very bright cobalt blue jeans. I was wondering whether a pale/mid grey top would work. I am VERY pale so a bright colour on top might be too much, but I do like the cobalt blue on the bottom. I have a grey sweatshirt look shirt and also a very fine knit grey t-shirt, so am wondering about those.
Still not sure what colour shoes (heels). Perhaps I should get some bright heels in a contrasting colour?

Mint green or lemon yellow?

Some ideas here on Pinterest

thanks! looks really fresh with green on pinterest, I don't want to wear black with them. I saw some hot pink suede heels in topshop and had thought about those.

Mumelie, mint and lemon would work.

How about this: www.cosstores.com/Shop/Women/Tops/T-shirts/Printed_panel_top/10673111-6875829.1#c-9849162

Sounds great. Grey would be my first choice too.

I wear mine with navy, grey, black and white mainly. Sometimes a neon orange tee when I want to be a children's tv presenter.

Navy sounds interesting, I might try that.
I am on a mission to wear more bright clothes but like to keep it away from my face. Anyway I took the plunge late last night and ordered these pink courts from topshop www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33057&storeId=12556&productId=9791789&langId=-1&categoryId=&searchTerm=gwenda&pageSize=200
I could wear the cobalt jeans, pink flats, grey top but I think I would need something to balance all that colour going on (perhaps a bright chunky necklace).
Or maybe I should forget that and wear some more conservative shoes (DH won't believe that I am wearing pink but the shoes looked so fresh in store).

Acid yellow, off white, mint green, red & white stripe I wear with mine.

scripsi · 01/06/2013 13:33

should point out that I know the shoes are heels (no idea why I wrote flats).

Acid yellow sounds interesting. I have a red and white stripe top I shall try on later!
