Whether you select wedges, strappy sandals or sleek pumps, the warmth of gold footwear brings out the richness of teal and lends a luxe elegance to your overall look. Complete the picture with a chunky gold cuff, bangles or dangling earrings and a tan clutch with a gold clasp. If you’d like to mix things up, rock your teal dress with silver shoes -- the metallic hue plays up the cool undertones of both blue and green. Flesh-tone nude heels are another fail-safe option and black footwear is a strong choice in cooler seasons.
