Black. Emerald green is one of the few colours with which black shoes look genuinely elegant, rather than a bit of an afterthought!

Bright yellow

Sorry - totally disagree ... Black with emerald green is really jarring IMO.

I love black and green as a colour combination.

buttercrumble · 14/12/2013 13:07

Black

DavenotChas · 14/12/2013 13:37

Bright red

Silver, but of the choice black. I think teal is not quite matchup enough but not quite different enough.

tweetytwat · 14/12/2013 13:50

silver

cookielove · 14/12/2013 14:03

I was thinking navy blue!

Cadburys purple looks fab with emerald green, google the combination, lots of pictures come up.

fackinell · 14/12/2013 14:09

Silver. Wore this combo recently, black looked too harsh on my long, delicate dress. Although saying that, it'd look fab if dress is short, with thick black tights.

Green ; dune have some!

Cherrypie32 · 15/12/2013 08:06

Gold of course.

Fizzyfuzzy123 · 15/12/2013 08:08

Gold too! And blue and green should never be seen! Is that the old saying ? I don't mind blue and green tbh but I think gold or maybe silver

SquidgyMummy · 15/12/2013 08:12

what's your colouring? blonde? brunette?
What does the dress look like exactly?

baskingseals · 15/12/2013 08:14

Pink I would have thought.

tearoomtrash · 15/12/2013 16:25

Gold strappy sandals with an emerald green dress. I'd never put black shoes with a green dress, although I can't put my finger on why...

Ladyglamalot · 15/12/2013 20:00

Gold. Green and gold look amazing together.
