I just purchased a light shaded pair of Magnanni's (see link below) and am concerned as to how to match these pairs of shoes with my wardrobe. For example, do these shoes always require a matching colored belt if I were wearing a medium beige (Hugo Boss) vs. a darker shade of brown? Also, would these shoes match well with a pair of gray pants? Would you dare blend these shoes with your darker pant colors (e.g., charcoal, dark blue, etc.?)

Any insight would much be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

As long as the belt is brown, you are fine. Although, beige might be pushing it, for me at least, but then again, I have not seen the belt. Some like to be very "matchy matchy" others dislike it, personal preference.

As for pants, any shade of grey or navy would look fine with those shoes.
