You see? It's universal. But it's not your fault, it's part of the culture. For guys it's will it fit and do the job, but for girls it's part of the wardrobe, the outfit, like the mentioned blue shoes to go with blue slacks. I'm not being critical, it's just a fact you feel better when that shit matches.

OK, now we have the problem of not just black or brown, (plus white sneakers), you've got colors and shades of colors to consider. Not even getting into styles.
Since shoe stores aren't the paint store where they whip up what you want, you're at the mercy of what some gay dude thinks will be fabulous this season. Of course you don't have anything that goes with this season's hot fuchsia, but if you have a couple extra bucks you better grab them because next year when the hot fuchsia makes it to the slack racks you can afford, those shoes will be ancient history.

That's why most every woman I've ever known was missing a pair of shoes her wardrobe needed, and she was on a constant hunt.

I don't approve, but I understand.
