I got all black converse {the ones with black shoelaces and black "soles" (if that's what there called)}, and I want to wear them but I don't want to have to wear strictly black or white when I wear them. So basically my question is: How to I wear different colors with all black converse and still match?

Black is the absence of color (and is therefore not a color technically)
When there is no light, everything is black. Test this out by going into a photographic dark room. There are no photons of light. In other words, there are no photons of colors.
Other colors considered neutral are white and beiges. But white and beige can have undertones of other colors giving a more pinkish, or yellowed cast which can make it appear to not go along with other colors.
White is the blending of all colors and is a color.
Light appears colorless or white. Sunlight is white light that is composed of all the colors of the spectrum. A rainbow is proof. You can't see the colors of sunlight except when atmospheric conditions bend the light rays and create a rainbow. You can also use a prism to demonstrate this.
A woman who like to have everything match in color, dress, shoes, purse, nail color, need to be well to do financially to afford ever color of shoe. For those of us who can't afford but a couple pairs of shoes, since black is absence of color, it can not clash but neither is it a matching color.
I think a bigger concern regarding a pair of black footwear is that the style goes along with what you are wearing. For example, converse won't look good to go along with a suit or tux or evening gown or party dress because you are attempting to match casual with formal. Other than that, don't worry about it.

hope this helps~ [ Ocalaphernella's advice column | Ask Ocalaphernella A Question ]
