You want to put on a nice black dress and you are wondering what shoes to wear with? Especiallyin winter, when you can't match it with simple sandals?Â
I'll help you out.Â
As a fashion enthusiast, I'm convinced that a pretty black dress is a must-have piece in your wardrobe. Depending on how it's worn and the clothes and shoes you match it with, it's a perfect fit for any occasion and in any weather.Â
Today, I'm offering you a complete guide to everything you need to know about the different ways to coordinate shoes and black dress, in winter. I promise, after this article, you won't be clueless about this question anymore!Â
The ideal option, to be warm and show off your legs, is to opt for boots or thigh-high boots to match with your black dress. If you enjoy wearing them, I recommend selecting models with heels, which will lengthen your legs and make you look great. If you are rather small, you can wear ankle boots. Apart from sneakers, which will be prettier in white, in contrast, the total black look is possible for most shoes. You can also opt for shades such as natural leather, blue or red, but make sure your outfit has a reminder of that color. Finally, if you want a classy and dressy outfit, pumps, worn with tights, are still the most suitable solution.Â

What better way to be warm and look feminine than with high shoes? These go especially well with short and mid-length dresses and help to show off your legs.Â
In the following lines, I reveal a small selection of models of boots and booties perfect to wear with a black dress in winter.Â
Whatever their material, high boots will be your ideal allies for a classic and chic outfit, with a black dress in winter. Easy to wear, they will lengthen and slim your legs naturally, giving you a lot of allure. They are suitable for most body types, but they will particularly enhance you if you are tall or have a luscious physique.Â
You can wear them with or without heels, depending on your preference. If you choose colored or natural leather boots, consider making a reminder of that color in your outfit, with an accessory or jacket, for example.Â
Very feminine, thigh-high boots are boots that come up above the knee to shape your legs and lengthen them endlessly. They're best suited for a evening outfit or for a special occasion, as they're very sensual shoes that go great with a sexy skirt or short dress.Â
Thigh-high boots are very trendy this winter: they were even the stars of the fall fashion shows of the houses Lanvin and Valentino!Â
With thigh-high boots and a short dress, you can dare the total black look, which will particularly highlight you if you have a slender figure. If you are rather petite, I recommend wearing them with opaque tights, which will have the effect of enlarging your legs.Â
👉 Are your thigh-highs constantly slipping? Here are two solutions to keep them on:
No more worries about pulling boots up!!!😉
Shorter than boots, but just as feminine, booties are perfect for sublimating your legs when it's not too cold. They also allow you to show off your tights or stockings if they are colorful or patterned.Â
Finally, if you are rather short, booties will be your best friends! Indeed, they lengthen your legs and create a nice ratio of proportion to your figure. As for the boots, you can decline the colors to match your outfit.Â
Do you have a bit of a rock n' roll or grunge style? In that case, you can match your black dress with flat, chunky ankle boots, such as Dr. Martens. Since these are basically shoes inspired by those worn by the military, these flat booties are perfect if you move around a lot outside. They have the advantage of being very sturdy and can last for years if you take good care of them.Â
They will look great with:Â
Like thigh-high boots, they can be worn with a total black look!Â
Does your black dress come down to your ankles? Then you may be wondering if it's really worth wearing high boots that you won't see anyway.Â
In reality, you have several options:Â
👉 What if we don't put on heels? In that case, you can put on low shoes, with small flat heels. But these will go better with a slit dress, which lets your legs show. Otherwise, it might tamp down your figure a bit...
Would you like to wear sneakers to be comfortable and stylish with your dress? It's possible! However, there is one simple rule to follow: choose clean white low top sneakers! They can have a black detail, but the main color should be a pristine white.
This will result in creating a nice contrast with your dress and draw the eye to your legs. This is a prettytrendy and modern outfit, best reserved for those who like black and white and out of the ordinary outfits a bit.Â
Are you more of a classic girl? Are you planning to wear your black dress for a special event or even a job that requires dressy attire? In this case, I can only advise you to stay sober and chic, wearing pumps. In order not to be cold, you can pair them with thin tights and a fairly long coat.Â
Your slides can be black or colored, depending on the desired effect. However, the classiest one is still black, especially if you wear them with a professional uniform, for example.Â
If you have a handbag or clutch, you can create an encore by choosing the same material or a similar-looking texture. This works great with vinyl, for example!Â
Here's a simple tip for those who would like to pair their black dress with low shoes (babies, derbies, ballet flats...), but are still a bit chilly... This will have the effect of lengthening your legs and sublimating your figure.Â
To ensure that your stockings do not fall off, I recommend you choose models with a hook and loop tape, which will ensure a long-lasting hold throughout the day.Â
If your dress is short, you can choose stockings or mid low. If it comes just above the knee or at the knee level, I would recommend knee-highs or even high socks instead.Â
Don't hesitate to dare colors, patterns and original materials to personalize your outfit and thus wear clothes that really fit you!Â
