Fall Shoe Trend Alert: Nude Heels

George Napolitano/FilmMagic;Clark Samuels/startraks;Jason Merritt/FilmMagic

What better way to show off a fabulous new dress than to keep your heels simple? With such bright colors in for the fall — hot pink, turquoise, purple and vibrant patterns — you should invest in a good neutral shoe. Take a cue from Jessica Alba in Celine mary janes on CBS The Early Show, Ivanka Trump in matte nude heels at a Trump Hotel launch in New York City and Kristen Bell in Kenneth Cole peep-toes at the Superbad premiere. Keeping your heels neutral will not only play up the rest of your outfit, but will make your legs look miles longer! Check out a few of our favorite tan heels:

Dolce Vita double strap patent Mary Jane, $122, dolcevita.com

Steve Madden “Eloppe” platform heel, $110, stevemadden.com

Anne Klein “Wishful” patent pump, $79, macys.com

Wait…hold up…aren’t those the same shoes that Kelly Clarkson wore to the Teen Choice Awards, that everone said was ‘boring and ugly’? She started the trend!

The color of “nude” doesn’t exactly match the color of dark skin, does it?

Ummm, unless you are Halle Berry, none of these nude shoe trends translate on darker african americans. They would look quite silly.

hilary duff has been wearing nude pumps for ages. lovee them. they look cute

I wasn’t aware that “tan” is the only skin colour or that nude shoes would look nice on all races. Some multi-ethnic shades would be nice.

Does anyone know where I could get Ivanka’s dress or one like it? Thanks!

I just returned a pair of nude pumps because I thought they were too light blonde looking – not the style for me – too summery looking.

My BFF has shoes like that and she totally rocks them. Can’t wait to get myself some!

I love the new nude/natural color pump. I’ve boughten a few pairs already. Try some of the one’s below:

I love the Gabriella Rocha Betsy shoe from zappos.com. This shoe is so sexy and goes great with anything. I get tons of compliments on them as well —–> http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/30863660/c/19.html

I just bought a pair of dollhouse Connie pumps, and I love them, and they’re for a decent price at zappos.com ——> http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/30877839/c/43.html

And just because, I thought I’d recommend these shoes. I absolutely love the RSVP Julia pump. These are white {which this color is still in}, you can also purchase these in Camel. This shoe is lovely and also at zappos.com ——> http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/30885776/c/15.html

According to the pics, you have to have Trump’s skin color to get away with this look. But then your feet disappear. I still prefer a good old black or red high heeled pump.
