Summer is here and it's finally time for my collection of white dresses to enjoy their time in the sun. A mainstay in my wardrobe, I often reach for a fresh white dress throughout the warmer months as an easy way to create an ensemble for the heat. Whilst white is a neutral shade and one of the easiest to style other colours with, there are certain colours that look even chicer with white than others, and that definitely comes into play when we talk about shoes.
While you'll find it difficult to find a shoe colour that doesn't work with a white dress, I find that there are five that strike the perfect balance of being fresh and elegant. You can probably guess a couple, but a few might be less obvious.
Scroll on to see the shoe colours that look best with white dresses.
5 SHOE COLOURS TO WEAR WITH WHITE DRESSES
1. RED SHOES
Style Notes: The red colour trend is continuing to thrive this summer and influencers are reaching for it in the form of pretty shoes this season. Balancing the fresh energy of the white dress, a red shoe pairing adds a playful and feminine edge in an easy and wearable way.

3. GREEN SHOES
