do u always match shoes to purse?

Sometimes I do but it's not a rule for me. I often will wear a black purse with red ballet flats, white bag with navy quilted flats or turquoise sandals with a beige bag.

Matchy matchy is not necessary. Sometimes I match color, but not texture (patent shoes and a bag with that same color, but fabric or "regular" leather). One rule I have heard is that you want the metals to be harmonious so if you have a gold clutch you might have a shoe that has gold detailing not silver.

I don't think the rule really applies because its the entire ensemble that people will be looking at. Obviously you shouldn't match items that have totally different characteristics - just make a decision based on your fashion intuition on what looks good as a collective.

not always
sometimes if my shoes are special, or my purse is special, I'll match
but if i'm just wearing whatever items.. no

no I don't when I grab a bag to go, I am more concerned if it would work with my outfit then my shoes.

thats funny how I never think of the two as having to go with each other. go figure.

I don't match....I think it looks tacky actually.

I have a lot of black shoes and brown shoes and really only black and brown purses pretty much, so I sort of usually match. It's not really intentional though. I just don't have a lot of color to work with.
