Black dresses are a staple item for any woman's wardrobe. But, sometimes, they can feel a bit boring. If you want to add some color to a black dress, read on! In this blog post, we'll explore some creative ways that you can add color to a black dress. Let's get started!
For a cocktail party, consider wearing black heels, wedges or simple strappy sandals. Pair this with neutral-toned jewelry, such as simple earrings and bracelets.
For a more formal evening, wear black pumps. If you want to wear black heels, however, it is important to make sure that you don't have too much skin on show - this can be difficult if you are wearing a strapless dress.
For evening wear, wear a black clutch purse. This will complement the black dress and will help to add a bit of color to your outfit without distracting from the dress itself.
1. Accessories:
A good way to add color to a black dress is with accessories. A brightly colored handbag or scarf can quickly add some color to your outfit. If you're wearing a long-sleeved shirt, a pair of colorful earrings or statement necklace can look great as well. A colorful purse or scarf can also be the perfect complement for a dress.
2. Add color with shoes:
Of course, you don't have to wear any accessories at all to add color to your outfit. Instead, you can match your shoes to your outfit. For example, if you're wearing a black dress, a pair of black shoes can look boring. Instead, choose a pair of red shoes to add some color to your outfit.
3. Add color with your makeup:
Another way you can add color to your outfit is with your makeup. If you're wearing black dress, try adding some bright pink lipstick to your lips. Or, try adding a striking eye makeup look with a bold lipstick or eyeshadow.
4. Wear bright jewelry:
Of course, you don't have to buy new clothes in order to add some color to your outfit. Instead, you can wear bright jewelry. For example, wearing a pair of dangling bright blue earrings can instantly add some interest to your outfit.
5. Wear a bright top:
If you don't have any bright accessories or jewelry, you can always wear a bright top. If you're wearing a black dress, try adding a
Here are a few simple, yet elegant ways to accessorize a black dress:

Wear a bold statement earring.
Add a contrasting belt.
Add boots/sandals, etc.
Put on a long strand of pearls.
Wear a scarf.
Wear a hat.
Wear multiple bracelets.
Belts - A belt is a great way to tie in an interesting color from your black dress. For example, if your dress is a gray, black, and beige dress, a brown belt can tie in the beige nicely without overwhelming the dress. If you're wearing a black dress that has a red belt, it will add the red color from your dress without the need for a patterned handbag.
Jackets/Blazers - A jacket or blazer is another accessory that you can wear with your black dress. A nice black leather jacket can look great with any black dress and can add a bit of zip to whatever you are doing.
A formal blazer is another way to dress up your black dress and make it look more formal. If you feel that your dress is a bit too casual, you can add a blazer and a scarf (a black or white scarf depending on your dress color) to make your outfit more formal.
Hats - A hat is a great way to dress up your black dress. A black or white hat can add a bit of pop while keeping your outfit simple and elegant.
Shoes - A black dress can be paired with lots of different shoes. You can dress up your black dress with a pair of black pumps, or you can wear more casual shoes like boots, sneakers, or flats.
Bags - A handbag is another accessory that you can wear with your black dress. A nice handbag can add some color to your black dress, or you can wear a solid-colored handbag to match.
