What Colour Bottoms to Wear with Burgundy Heels

The best bottom colours to wear with burgundy heels are khaki, cream and grey. Khaki is a neutral, so it lets burgundy be the accent without clashing. Beige, black, white and charcoal also work. Be careful with light blue: wide-leg jeans are more casual than heels, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: burgundy and light blue can work together if a neutral anchors the outfit.
