Something that never fails is to wear shoes and a bag of the same color. It's a classic option that always works well.
This choice is both elegant and safe . In fact, what you could do is invest in a good shoe and a good bag (in basic shades) and wear them as a foolproof duo to all the weddings and events you have.

2- Color contrast between shoes and bag
Although choosing accessories in the same color will be a good idea, if you want to take a risk, you can opt for a printed bag and shoes in a solid color .
For example, a bag with a multicoloured print (in the colours of the dress) and choosing shoes in one of those tones. It is very original, different and will look great.
3- Trending color
You can also play with trendy colours to add a touch of style to your outfit. Every season, there is a trendy colour that does not go unnoticed among fashionistas, so you can take advantage and choose it for your upcoming weddings.

4- Bet on a single color
Who said you can't wear a total look at a wedding? There's no accounting for taste. If you prefer, wear everything in the same colour. For example, go with a total green look.
For example, these green sandals from Rebecca Hope are perfect for weddings. It's a type of shoe that doesn't go unnoticed because of its color and you can get a lot of use out of it at weddings and events you attend. It's a very festive and wedding-like color.
5- Accessories in the colors of the dress
If your dress has a multi-coloured print , you can choose two of those colours for your shoes and bag. This will give life and originality to your outfit.
If the dress has several colors, you will see that it is better to choose the accessories in a single color than in several, so as not to overdo the look and make it look exaggerated. Less is more.
6- Contrast bag
If you're wearing a monochromatic look, it's a good idea to add some contrast to your outfit with a brightly colored bag that breaks up the uniformity .
For example, you can choose to keep the shoes in the same color as the dress or have the shoes themselves contrast, whatever you prefer. Whatever you like best.
