What is the Meaning of "bring out the blue in your eyes"?
I was on YouTube watching a Bigdawstv's [YouTube channel] video, and while he's doing the video he meet a guy with a sandal on his feet, a blue shirt on , and he literately said "Your sandal is bringing out the blue in your eyes". I don't know what he meant by saying this, but i'm sure it has nothing to do with the blue shirt, i think it was a pure coincidence. Anyway, it would be really nice, if someone could clear this up for me.

I don't know the whole context, but it seems like some kind of joke. Sandals are normally very far away from people's eyes, so I guess it could be a joke. Could you maybe provide us with more context?

Now, it's all clear for me. After reading your comment, and go back checking the video once again, I realized he was 100% joking. Thank you Edy for your comment.

As far as I know, it means just how it sounds. If he was wearing a blue shirt, it would mean the color in the shirt was literally bringing out the color in his eyes. It's meant as a compliment and usually would be said if you didn't notice the color before. For example, if you had brown eyes and you were wearing a color that made them look more green than brown. He could say "oh, that shirt brings out the green in your eyes". I'm not sure why he would say sandal... but this is usually the meaning. It is a compliment.
