What Colour Shoes to Wear with Sage T-Shirt

The best shoe colours to wear with a sage t-shirt are white, black and brown. White is a neutral, so it lets sage be the accent without clashing. Cream, tan, beige and grey also work. Be careful with burgundy: loafers are dressier than a t-shirt, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: sage and burgundy can work together if a neutral anchors the outfit.
