Fergie’s Neon Sandals: Hit or Miss?

So I admit that I’m not a huge Fergie fan, but that doesn’t mean that I’m going to put down her outfit because of that. When I first saw this picture, I thought…wow, okay, Fergie’s taken her outfits down a notch. I couldn’t believe what a simple dress she had chosen…until I scrolled down and saw her shoes.

Now I know that being a celebrity, gives these people the right to try new things and experiment with fashion…but sometimes it’s just a little too much. They need to step back, take a good look at themselves in the mirror and assess the outfit one more time before leaving the house.

Like I said, I actually really love her dress. It’s very fun, flirty and feminine. But the shoes? I’m not so sure about. I love the orange neon color by itself but what the hell are those black straps? I think the shoes sans black straps might have looked a little better, but even so, they do not go with the dress at all. What do you guys think?

I think fergie lookes better than ever here. She looks fresh with her hair a dark brown, instead of an OVER high-lighted blonde look. And for the outfit, I love everything about it. She looks fashion forward. The shoes are hot, & in style. The black strap is just part of the shoe. Its a detail.

I adore this look. Tsk tsk to the reviewer. Fergie is on the cutting edge of fashion here. I would love if the average gal were more creative and not so meek when it comes to dressing. The world would be a more visually interesting place. In this outfit I think the black grounds the orange visually, and adds a sultry rocker/dominatrix vibe that plays off of the “innocent” hue and simplicity of the dress. The bright neon reminds me of Michael Kors’ recent runway show that was inspired by NYC asphalt and lights. I get heart palpitations looking at all that COLOR. Thumbs way up to Fergie, down for the reviewer.

Like I said, this is just my personal opinion. The shoes could be right off the runway for all I care, I just don’t think they’re right for her outfit.

I think you’re crazy. Her entire look here is dead on.

She looks great, she is gorgeous, but a big NO to the shoes!

I believe she took a chance and it worked out in the end. Yes, if you do only look at one part of the outfit the shoes don’t work, but if you take it in as a whole the look works wonderfully. Her hair, dress, even her tan, all work together to make this look daring, sexy, and trendy. Kudos to her for taking a chance, and succeeding.

Wow. Fergie’s dress is awesome. I love it. I like her neon shoes, too. But I don’t think it goes with the dress. Hmm.
