Amal Clooney’s advice for achieving elegance? Opt for this luxurious shoe color whenever possible.

      Whenever my friends seek my shopping advice, there are a few items I consistently mention. I have my preferred bags and several denim suggestions, but when it comes to footwear, one style is always on the tip of my tongue: the timeless gold sandal. With its shiny metallic finish and delicate straps, this shoe immediately adds a sophisticated, high-end touch to any outfit. My favorite aspect? It's incredibly versatile. Just look at Amal Clooney, who recently demonstrated this when she paired a sparkling gold pair with a flowing fuchsia dress.

      Fuchsia is one of the more challenging colors to style: it’s too pink to be classified as purple and too purple to be seen as pink, which often makes it difficult to coordinate with other colors. However, when you throw a gold sandal or shoe into the mix, the shade suddenly becomes much more wearable. Beyond your wardrobe's trickier items, I also find that a gold sandal instantly elevates casual jeans and adds a touch of elegance to a light white skirt. I genuinely believe that very few outfits wouldn't become more stylish with the addition of a gold sandal. Given how frequently she wears them, it seems Clooney shares this sentiment.

      The lawyer's recent look has only reinforced my belief that this is one of the most intelligent shoe trends to invest in at the moment. Keep scrolling for the best gold sandals available for purchase now.
