This choice comes up for me constantly. Should I go with elegant black, solid navy, simple white?
Or should I layer playful pink, turquoise blue, firehouse red?

I have fallen madly in love with these shoes [above].
While my first instinct is to go right for the black (or maybe even the taupe or grey), my husband reminded me that I have a lot of neutrals. I do have one pair of red ballet flats
that I wear nearly once a week.
I've done my diligence and checked out outfits on Pinterest. Here are a few favorite images:
What do you think? Black or red?
Thanks in advance!

Dear Rach,
"Well, it's more fun!" This is what my husband says to me each time I ask him this question. It is much more fun to go with the splash of color.
Black from head to toe is elegant but also serious. In the cat world, some even say it's bad luck.
Your heart lies with the red. I think it's revealing that you looked up photos on Pinterest solely of the red.
If you can't buy both of them, then I'd go with the red.
