Pink Dresses: What Color Accessories Go Best

Not sure what accessories to wear with your pink dress? Don’t worry, you’ve come to the right place! Whether you’re styling a soft blush, a bold hot pink, or a bright fuchsia dress, finding the right jewelry, shoes, clutch, or even nail polish can be surprisingly tricky. But I’ve got you covered!

From weddings (hello, bridesmaids!) to date nights and fancy parties, I’ve rounded up some of the best accessory ideas to help you create a stunning, put-together look.

What color accessories should I wear with a pink dress?

Let’s face it – just telling you what colors go with a pink dress is not very helpful. There are so many shades of pink and so many ways to style it. So instead of giving you a one-size-fits-all answer, I’ve broken things down by accessories: jewelry, shoes, bags, and even nail polish. That way, you can find the perfect match for your look!

And don’t forget to think about the event! Whether you’re going to a wedding, a fancy dinner, or a fun night out, there’s something here to spark your style inspiration.

Jewelry color

Let’s start with one of the most common style dilemmas: Should you wear silver or gold jewelry? The good news? You really can’t go wrong – either looks great with hot pink, light pink, or even bold fuchsia. It all comes down to your personal style and the vibe you’re going for.

If you ask me, you can’t go wrong with classic silver or gold earrings. They’re an easy, stress-free choice – especially when you want your dress to be the star of the show. Plus, they always add a touch of elegance and sophistication.

But if you’re in the mood to play with color, blue and green accessories can look stunning with a pink dress. Regardless of the shade of pink, earrings with light blue or mint green stones – think emeralds or tourmalines – can give your outfit an eye-catching twist.

Feeling bold? Try earrings with hot pink stones – or ones that match the hue of your dress. Whether you’re rocking a soft blush or a vibrant hot pink, this monochromatic look can be super chic and stylish.

For something a little more formal, black gemstone jewelry is a great option. Just keep it subtle to add sophistication without making the outfit feel too heavy.

Going to a daytime wedding? Go for something playful like flower-shaped jewelry. It’s perfect for spring and summer celebrations-especially if you’re headed to a beach or countryside wedding. It gives off that romantic vibe we all love!

And finally, no matter what shade of pink you’re wearing, zirconia jewelry is always a solid choice. It’s a man-made stone that looks just like diamonds – without the hefty price tag!

Shoe color

After you pick out your dress, you may still be wondering what shoes to wear with it. Don’t worry, there are so many options that will work with whatever shade of pink you’re wearing, no matter the occasion!

For example, if you’re a bridesmaid or wedding guest, high-heeled sandals in subtle shades like nude, beige, silver or even gold are a safe bet.

I love seeing nude heels with pink dresses! They add a soft, romantic vibe to your look and let your dress take center stage. Plus, they have the bonus of making you look taller, especially if you choose a shade close to your skin tone.

But if you’re a guest at an event and feeling a little more adventurous, why not go for a bold contrast? Black or white shoes can make a striking statement and really elevate your outfit!

White heels are a dream with a pale pink dress, giving you that soft, summery vibe. But if you’ve chosen a hot pink or fuchsia dress, black heeled sandals or pumps are the perfect choice. They add a touch of elegance that makes them ideal for a formal evening event or a special Valentine’s Day dinner.

Purse color

When it comes to accessories, choosing the right purse can be tricky. It’s normal to second guess yourself – your clutch, just like your jewelry, can really influence whether your outfit looks casual or dressed up. So it’s worth thinking about!

If you’re wearing a hot pink or fuchsia dress, a clutch in a matching or lighter shade of pink is a super easy option. It’s perfect if you’re going for a polished and understated look that still feels put together!

If you’re going for a more polished look, a silver or gold clutch is always a great choice, whether it’s for a daytime event or an evening out.

For a formal night out, a black clutch looks beautiful with a hot pink dress, especially if you’re also wearing black shoes.

Want to add a little color? Try a clutch in dark green, navy, light blue, lavender or purple. These hues go great with pink and are perfect for events like daytime weddings.

If you’re wearing a pale pink dress, a clutch in the same shade is an easy way to keep everything looking cohesive. Want a little more contrast? Try a hot pink or fuchsia clutch for a fun pop of color.

As with brighter pink dresses, silver or gold clutches add a touch of elegance to pale pink. For a softer look, white works beautifully. And if you’re heading to a formal evening event, a black clutch is a classic choice that adds just the right amount of drama.

Want to add a little color? Dark green, light blue or purple all work surprisingly well with pale pink and are perfect options to add interest to your outfit.

Nail color

Nail polish may be a small detail, but it can totally tie your whole look together – so don’t skip it!

For something subtle and elegant (perfect for bridesmaids), try nude shades with pink, gray or beige undertones. For a soft, sophisticated finish, a classic white polish or French manicure is always a beautiful choice.

Want to go a little bolder? I love the look of red or burgundy nails paired with a light pink, hot pink or fuchsia dress – it’s unexpected but super chic. For something a little more playful, lilac or mint green nail polish can look gorgeous with a light pink dress, especially for an outdoor wedding or spring event.
