I reckon initially it has more to do with what else you wear with it to match it (I'm presuming you mean white smart shoes, not trainers which are often white anyway).
Still more importantly though, I think it matters more how your frame and inner game is congruent with the shoes. Because this will make or break their effect once the initial value of the interaction is overcome, after you've opened the set.
What I mean by this is if the HB sees you're cool with it, and you're a cool guy, or you can "pull it off" then cushty. But if she finds out you're insecure about it or you wore it just for attention or you're not congruent with it, it's a downer.
Going back to general style, I'm feelin it with a smart outfit, perhaps black shirt & white trendy tie. Also definately trilby hat, that will make the shoes way more believable

It's not really wearing it...it's pulling it off
