Help! Green shoes, black dress

13 replies

Themilkmanschild · 27/10/2021 06:59

I have a wedding tomorrow evening. I only have a pair of green shoes and a black dress. I think this will work but what colour tights?? Black or beige?
Also I do have a couple of hours this afternoon so if green shoes and black dress are really a no no I can try and get something else. I had the green shoes to go with another dress but the other dress looks too tight now! I could get some black shoes for the dress? Or try and find another dress to go with the green shoes!

I would try lighter tights with that mix but it might depend on the shade of green

Do you have a picture or link? I think it could work but depends on the styles. And no tights, or skin coloured if you have to. I think black tights would make the outfit too dark for a wedding.

I'd go with skin colour tights, and accessorize with a matching green hat/fascinator and bag to brighten the outfit up.

I’d wear nude tights

Flesh coloured tights would be best

Ditto everyone else, either nude tights or no tights at all.

If you wanted to be a bit quirky you could wear mustard or orange tights. I've seen that black/green/orange palette before around this time of year looking great (you can Google a few or look on Pinterest) but can verge on the costumey if the tights are more pumpkin than mustard.

I’d go for a really fine denier black tight

Gingerodgers · 27/10/2021 09:04

Love the shoes by the way

Nice shoes, definitely wear nude tights, black would be too dark.

Derrymum123 · 27/10/2021 09:25

Nude tights. The shoes are gorgeous btw. You will look amazing.
