The collection of caramel shoes from Holts is brilliant because of its versatility, I know you’re thinking that it won’t go with anything you own but the truth is quite the opposite. So here is the lowdown on how to look amazing in this sophisticated and demure colour.
The theory that caramel doesn’t go with black is utter nonsense, wearing a little caramel with a black office outfit will make your blacks appear darker and sharper, so a simple clutch or patent shoe is perfect.
Caramel should always be worn with neutral tones… this is also not true. The deeper colour items you have in your wardrobe will look great with caramel as long as they are of a similar saturation the caramel will bring out the colour in the clothing. For example if you wear navy with caramel the navy will look bluer.
Wearing caramel shoes makes your legs look shorter! Again this is false. The truth about visually elongating your legs can only be done by wearing a pair of nude pointed toe shoes; these have to match your skin tone perfectly. Keep this perfect match in mind when picking your nude colour as the tights you are going to wear when wearing the nude shoes will affect the colour match. Caramel shoes have very little effect on the visual length of your legs but if you are looking to wear caramel shoes and elongate your silhouette wear narrow fitting trousers that stop just above your ankle this will add visible length in your lower leg.
You can wear denim and caramel in fact I encourage you to. The caramel and blue combination is refined and can take you from day to evening. During the day wear pastels and floral and for the night add some statement jewellery, this makes the caramel accessories very versatile.
White and Caramel is another classic combination that looks fantastically summery.
Wearing caramel accessories will add elegance and sophistication to a huge range of outfits, the only things I would not wear caramel with is orange but there are contradictions to this rule too.
To summarise the Caramel colour is versatile strong and complementary, it is a great colour to have available in your wardrobe and you will find it makes your trusted outfits even better.
