My coats, jackets, shoes, and handbags tend to be black, a neutral shade that looks classic, dressy (when needed), and goes with all other colors. Living in Manhattan, where space is limited, I have to mix and match everything I own, and fit them into my generous (yet only 2) wardrobe closets at the end of the day. I highly recommend finding your neutral color for these 4 articles to make dressing and storage easy.
But! When spring arrives, it's time to let our hair down and add something fun and playful to our wardrobes, isn't it? In the past, I bought ballet flats in leopard or polka dots. Or when replacing my sneakers stepped out of my practical neutral color zone by selecting bright pink or orange!
Why is it a worthy purchase? Wearing a playful color or pattern can put a pep in your walk by lifting your mood. I get loads of compliments on my fun shoes from friends, coworkers, and strangers alike! In a fanciful color or pattern, people can sense I am approachable.
Here is a multi-colored pair of sandals I tried hard to buy. Unfortunately, when I needed new sandals, none were left in my size, so I missed out!
If you're replacing your walking shoes, sneakers, or sandals this spring or summer, consider getting a little wild and crazy. Stepping outside of your usual (and sensible) neutral palette in this most casual of seasons makes you feel happy!🌞🌴🩴

I love this! It's so true that adding a fun, playful accessory can completely change your mood and outfit. I’m a fan of mixing up the neutrals with something vibrant too—especially in the warmer months. Those multi-colored sandals sound like they would’ve been perfect for bringing a little extra joy to your spring wardrobe. It’s amazing how something as simple as a bold pair of shoes can make you feel more energetic and approachable. Definitely going to keep this in mind for my next shoe or accessory purchase!
ReplyDeleteWelcome here, MELODY, and thank you for sharing your opinion too. I love to hear what others think.
DeleteI love a bright pair of shoes, and my pink sneakers are well worn. The pink sneakers you show would be perfect for me!
ReplyDeleteOf course I thought of you, Trish, when I wrote the blog. Hot pink sneakers are such fun to wear. Hot pink in anything is a cheerful, vibrant color! I have a wool sweater in hot pink, I'll never tire of wearing!
