Pair Red Ankle Booties with a Black and White Outfit
Red ankle booties command attention, so to avoid looking too loud or flashy, try wearing neutrals. This chic black and white outfit is a good example of how to do it right.Classic Styles Always Work
Red booties are trendy and a little bit out there, so if you want to feel confident trying out this trend, then wear red booties with something classic. For example, try red ankle booties and a sleek navy sheath dress, or pair red ankle booties with these traditional cropped houndstooth pants. I’ve paired my pants with a black ribbed mock turtleneck for a no-fail look. I love the way the cropped top gives the outfit a modern kick.Choose Good Quality Red Ankle Booties
There are red ankle booties, and there are red ankle booties. Some look like a million bucks, and some look like part of a Halloween costume. You don’t have to spend a fortune, but quality counts. Cheap dyes and poor finishes on some red leather booties or suede leather booties can be so bright and shiny (or distressed) that the boots look tacky.
Keep it Elegant
Also, beware of red booties with a lot of busy detail or hardware. There’s already enough going on with the power of red. A refined, sleek style with a pointy toe and not too high a heel guarantees a chic look. A thicker heel can work, too, if you want a more casual vibe.
Should your purse be black, or red?
For a sophisticated look, a black purse like this Gucci Velvet quilted bag with this outfit tones down the red.shop the post

Do you match your hose to the shoe or the dress? My dress is black, and I have wine booties. Thank you
Hi Dana, I’d wear a black hose with the black dress and wine booties, so your legs look long and the booties pop.
