What Colour Shoes Should I Wear With a Teal Dress

Linda W

Boy, do I need help!!!!

I am wearing a beautiful teal colored dress to my 40th high school reunion. It is teal blue, not teal green. Not dark color, medium color. It is sleeveless, but it has a a chiffon see through jacket that goes with it, that has swirls of different shades of teal. I LOVE this dress.

Question. WHAT COLOR SHOES!!!!! Please help. My reunion is September 8th.

ann taylor has these for sale... not sure it''s the color your looking for.

Silver would brighten up the look and still match the dress.

tina sparkle

black shoes go with everything.

Linda W

Thank you ladies. Love that blue pair JC. I will look into siver too!!! Black is an option too.

Linda

jcrow

is it solid colored teal? or patterned?
if patterned, then i''d go with a silver or gold shoe depending on the tone of the teal. if it''s patterned, i think you can do a teal shoe like the one i posted.

Linda W

The dress itself it solid. The short see through jacket is swirls, like a leafy print of light and dark colors of teal. hard to describe, but a lot of it is the dress underneath showing through. Very beautiful though. I am not very good a describing things. HA !!!

jcrow

got it. then i would do a gunmetal type of silver or a gold (but not flashy gold). a soft muted gold.

ditto jcrow...i would go with a pewter shade silver or muted gold/soft bronzey. Not a huge fan of matchy matchy for the most part, i like the accented look better. Your dress sounds beautiful! I''m going to my high school reunion in 2 weeks and am in the process of finding something to wear also!

Hope you find something fantastic. A few of my friends are wearing pants. I don''t want to do that. Definitely a dress for me!!!

The obvious pairings to me would be silver or champagne, but if you have the personality to carry off something bold and quirky, for some reason I can see blue-teal paired with some great multi-colored Prada heels in my mind''s eye.

I know JCrow has counseled you on the most beautiful pewter shoes...and I agree they are a great choice! And versatile. You will be able to wear that color again and again.

But I must tell you I was in Macy''s tonight...and I squealed...IT WAS LOUD and it was ALL for you!! Oh gosh I was embarrassed.

They have this teal shoe that has this round plastic piece that sits on top of your foot that is translucent and has these little flecks of glittery metal shards. Anyway...I KNOW YOU HAVE ALL DECIDED that silver is best...

I just wanted to write you and tell you I had a moment for you...just you, me and that shoe and the clearance rack. $34 I think. I am sure the employees are still laughing at me.

Linda W

DKS.

Bless your heart!!! That shoes sounds BEAUTIFUL. Too bad I didn''t see that myself. If we had been together, we both would have probably been kicked out of Macy''s for being loud

hahahahahahaha.

Thank you so much for thinking of me, you are a sweetheart.

I vote silver or platinum...or even black, if you do a black purse...

Linda W

Thank you DF, I always value your input!!!!!!

You are very welcome. I also am not a matchy fan, so pewter/platinum/muted silver is great, and black always work. Personally I am not in favor of gold, because the teal is a cooler tone, I prefer the cooler metals with it, but that is just my taste. Whatever you pick I am sure you will look great! Show us the final choices please!

Linda W

Ladies I need advice again.

What color nail polish, lipstick and eye shadow would you suggest. I don''t want my eyes to scream eye shadow. I have dark brown eyes.

My hair is highlighted. I have brown hair with blonde highlights, if that helps.

If you have any websites, where I can order the polish, lipstick and eyeshadow online that would be a plus for me.

Thank you all so much for all of the help you have given me. Wish I could reach through the computer and give you all a great big HUG

Personally, I would stick with neutrals. A deep brown liner might enhance your eyes more than a pewter (and look less matchy-matchy which is why I would also stay away from teals).

Peaches and corals are a nice contrast (while remaining natural) to the teal.

beige, peach, brown and raisin shadow (These can go on wet or dry- wet would be more intense).

To keep shadow on without going intense with the wet application, this
primer potion stays put and does not crease. It comes off with soap and water. I haven't found any shadow it doesn't work it... just make sure you let it dry for a minute before applying shadow.

Another shadow option is the
smashbox.com beige, champagne and chocolate

Or Sephora's Abricot Pulp 09 in brozne, golden champagne, peach sheen and peachy pearl sheen

If you want a liner with a bit of glimmer that will stay put... Urban Decay 24/7 in Bourbon (glimmering dark brown) It does on super creamy, so you need a steady, light hand.

If you don't have a steady, light hand... Make Up Forever Aqua Eyes in Pearly Brown

Cheeks: Joyous Jennifer/Sorbet (bronzed rose/light pink)

Sheer stained-look lipstick: Nars lipstick in Barbarella (sheer peach)

Or lip stain gloss: Nars in Rage (rose coral) or a darker color looks pretty in Pampa (nutmeg)

Or lots of peaches and browns in the Smashbox lip enhancing gloss

For nails I would stick to either a natural looking french manicure or a peachy-champagne shimmer or a sheer peach.

ETA: If you order from Sephora, make sure to select your free samples!

OK another question.

Is it the style now, to NOT wear nylon stocking with dresses???? This is what I saw in magazines the other day?????? My dress is way below my knee, with a side slit.

Linda

Linda W

Sera,

Thank YOU, for all of your suggestions!!!!!!!

I would not wear stockings if you can avoid it. I would use one of those lotions that gives a glow to the skin. Shave, exfoliate and then use it lightly, the night before so it can dry, and then forgo stockings. You can always wear spanx to hold you in but I am sort of over the stockings unless it is a black tight with a funky dress.
I live in a cold climate and do not wear stockings, even in the winter.

For makeup, I would stay neutral. I like the idea of a greyish pewter liner, a pearly sheen for the brow, and perhaps a lighter smoky grey for the crease. Blush and lipstick I would keep simple. I lately have been doing a smoky eye and lighter lip, so it depends how much eye shadow you use, but I would balance my lips if you have more on your eyes, and stick with a neutral with an undertone that suits your skin tone, and put a bit of pearly gloss on top. Cheeks can be a soft shade, not too neutral so that it looks flat, but not too color intense either. Teal again is a cool color, so I would try to keep my make up in the cooler range so it does not conflict. If you go lighter on the eyes, you can maybe do a sheer berry color on the lips, not too intense, and put a shimmery gloss on top to further tone it down, but be careful not to change the tone of the lipstick. I think bronze tones might have too much red and might fight the cool tones of the blue...but that is just my thought.

Linda W

DF you are wonderful!!!!!

Thank YOU for your help too!!!!! I will do that with my legs. I am trying to keep them "safe" right now LOL LOL. My grand boys like to sit on my lap, and in the process I get black and blue marks. I bruise easily. I don''t want to have bruises on my legs, that is all I need

I do wear Spanx to hold my middle aged droop in

I am on the look out now for a good lip color and nail polish for my manicure and pedicure I have coming up a few days before my reunion. I went shopping for a little bit at the mall yesterday, but my legs starting acting up and I had to come back home. I am going to go back again on Tuesday.

Do they still wear lip color that matches their nail polish or is that a past thing too?? LOL LOL. Boy, am I ever showing my age
