White ensemble, gold shoes


No color is more appropriate for summer than white, and what’s more luxurious than a white-and-gold combo? Here’s how you can wear gold and white together.

A pair of womens gold dress shoes adds luxury to the jersey fabric and the gold glitter gives an unexpected twist to a relatively conservative shoe shape – a black or nude shoe definitely wouldn’t have had the same impact as gold.

This gold sequined shoe has a four-inch heel and a sleek pointed toe like the glitter Pigalles, but comes at a fraction of the price at just $97.99 (Sears.com). Another shoe with a similar look and feel as SJP’s pumps are Betsey Johnson women’s Ice pumps, which are just $77.00 via Endless.

Chunky t-strap clogs and pumps continue to be in, with Lanvin’s metallic T-strap Dorsay on the luxury end of the spectrum ($716 at NeimanMarcus.com) and Bronx Women’s Fancy Platform T-Strap on the lower end of the spectrum ($52 from CSNstores).
Add a chunky chain bracelet and a pair of oversized sunglasses for the perfect resort outfit!
