Do you wear matching bags and shoes?

There are times when I do this. If my shoes are white, my bag or purse must also be white. Or, if my bag or purse is red, my shoes must also be red. I think it's cute. But of course, I am not really that type of person who will buy a matching bag and shoes just for the heck of it. I know that is not practical. It just so happens that I do have shoes and bags that are of the same color.

shoes and bags - generally, my shoes and bags are in matching colors
Hi Dolce_Vita78, Well, as much as possible, my bag and my shoes should be of the same color. I generally use bags and shoes of the basic colors black, brown and gray. These colors go with most of the clothes in my wardrobe as well as anyone else's. I find the ones of basic colors to be very functional in work and in other gatherings. I have other colors of bags and shoes, too but not the very unusual ones. I like to wear matched colors.

I don't have the patience to do that. I have one standard bag that I use, and a nice pair of black dress shoes for the summertime, and hiking boots for the wintertime. It was pretty funny to see me in a formal dress and my black hiking boots, but I was more concerned about getting there safely, than co-ordinating my footware with my outfit. LOL

Hey dolce! Yes again! I am the type of person who has to match! I mean everything has to match pretty much! My shoes and handbag must match in some way! My clothes have to match too! And they have to match the shoes and handbag and the clip in my hair has to match too! I've always been like that! I have a bag that is a denim bag that I can wear with my jeans just in case I don't have anything else to match them!lol

Ha! I only have two bags that I really like - my brown Coach one and my black Guess one. And I'm the WORST person in the world to talk about MATCHING, lol. I almost always carry around my brown Coach purse even though it doesn't always match with my clothes. If you have it, I would say why not go out of your way to match? But I'm with you..I definitely won't buy bags of all the colors of the rainbow just so that I can match them with my outfits. It's not THAT important.

I don't fancy wearing something that are of the same color. It is to me boring and lacks creativity in dressing up. I like to play with colors that compliment each other like a white dress with different color of bags or shoes. But there mustn't be more than 3 colors in my dressing at any one time or I end up being like a christmas tree.

Sometimes I do that but not often. I am not into fashion. Usually my shoes colored are black and brown and also my bag. I dont want colors that will call attention. I have my own style and so you do and all the others.

yes i do. my officemates would often ask me if do i really need to coordinate my clothes and stuff? well of course. that's smart and stylish dressing for me. plus it adds confidence. it doesn't have to be monochromatic all throughout. but a lil matching accent would do.

I don't really match my shoes and bags.I am not a bag lover and I don't have a lot of bags.my bags are usually in brown,while my shoes are mostly white and metallic.I am comfortable when it's mismatched.I don't like walking in one color.what's important for me,though,is my bag should be big.I can't go around town toting a small clutch or purse.

hi dolce_vita78, I sometimes do and I think it is fun. I have a red bag that I usually pair with my red stiletto shoes. I usually wear it with my favorite jeans and black button-down shirt and it's my favorite look. I also have white and yellow shoes and bags. Sometimes I match my shoes with my belt. Yes, sometimes it is not practical because it is quite expensive. But what I do is, I only stick to items that are classic and can last long, fashion wise and quality wise. I really don't buy stuff because of the "trend", I only go for inexpensive and yet has a really good quality items.
