If you have never worn a pair of colored heels before then the perfect way to start wearing some awesome colored heels is by pairing them with a black dress. Colored heels are a great way to spruce up a little black dress for just about any event.

The reason why wearing colored heels with a black dress is the best place to start is because every color goes with black, with maybe a few exceptions when it comes to fashion. You can pair a red pair of heels just as well as a purple pair with a black dress. It all depends on your personal style and what color shoe attracts you.

The most common colored heel that we normally see with a black dress is red. A red shoe will definitely draw attention to your legs, so if you are not into showing off your legs, you may want to avoid a pair of bright red heels. A red heel adds an interesting contrast to a black dress and can be worn to just about any event, such as a cocktail party, a wedding, or even to a work party.

If you are willing to be a little more daring and take on a more stylish approach than just red heels, try branching out with different colors. For example, hot pink is a really popular color now and with a black dress, just about anyone can rock hot pink heels. Another trendy color is purple. Unlike hot pink, purple is a little more subdued but definitely will still get you on the best dressed list. Some other colors to consider with a black dress are green and yellow.

With a black dress you can also choose to wear multi-colored or patterned heels as well. A really trendy fashion style is a black dress with a pair of leopard or zebra print heels. Look for patterns and prints that have unusual colors such as an animal print with red coloring as well.

If you have wanted to try your hand at wearing colored heels, try out this fashion trend with a little black dress and you may just end up wanting to explore new options for your fancy colored heels.
