Barefoot and beautiful! Well ... almost. 2009 brings on shoes with less bling and something a little more natural -- or, rather,
natural-toned.
Katie Holmes recently sported some nearly-naked colored
Stuart Weitzman shoes, but the skin-hued heels have been gracing carpets of all kinds from some other Hollywood favorites like
Selena Gomez,
Lady Gaga,
Salma Hayek,
Debra Messing and
Penelope Cruz. For a shoe that goes with any outfit, these ladies kicked off their color and opted for tones that blended right in. It may take a minute or so to find the right color for you, so don't take just one specific pick as the last word over a shoe that will match best. A fairer skin may find that a beige colored shoe is the best blend, while one that's a camel toned may be just what's needed to look seamless on a darker skin. For legs that look like they go on forever, take a cue from some famous fashion moguls and find some flesh-fitting kicks in my slideshow!
