Shoes...glorious shoes!!!!

This is one of the best parts of the prep work for getting married. Looking for shoes. *sigh* who doesn't love shoe shopping? Shoes always fit, they never hug your thighs wrong or make your hips look like saddle bags. I know if I ask for a size 8.5 I won't get what should be a size 6.

But I need help, my dress lady suggested a website and now I'm caught. I can't decide on which one. I need help with this HUGE decision.

I need your vote. Imagine me in a red, white, and blue outfit pointing at you with a huge, meaty finger. And a stove pipe hat. And a beard. No, scratch the beard.

Initially I thought I'd do something fun like this.

But I can't find anything. All the greens are sea foam and I'm more of a sage green. Or a brown.

Here are the contestants so far, please feel free to vote or add a suggestion. My dress will be ivory.

Unlisted File Complete Platform
Ivy Ankle Strap Sandal
Lasonia Wedge Sandal
Chinese Laundry Platform Sandal
Hannah Sandal
Karla Slingback
Ashley Platform Sandal
Electra Platform Sandal
Forbes Peep-toe Pump

That's it. What do you think? I'm open to suggestions. I've looked at Macy's, Nordstrom, Nordstrom Rack, Zappos, Overstock, Payless, and few others. I have just over a month to go and I need to get these ordered.

You can't go wrong with any of them but my favorite is the 2nd one with the 1st one as my second favorite!! Love them all though!!

Angela said...

I wanted to vote for more than one! I also really liked the Chinese laundry and the Forbes one...I voted for the unlisted one. Good luck!!

I must be weird because the second one is actually my least fav out of 'em.
I like color. I searched for months for red shoes for my wedding and couldn't find any. Not a single pair (well, it was Jan/Feb...)
I like the last one. :)

I really liked the first one, but I gotta be honest...I wouldn't pick any of them..JUST for the simple fact that your feet are going to BE KILLING YOU!
I wish that I would've worn flip flops or tennis shoes or something...flat. Boring, I know, but I just have to be honest! :)

So I looked at Ann Taylor Wedding site and did not see any but I found these

at Nine West. They are black and not brown. I noticed that many of your shoes have the ankle strap and I found those to be uncomfortable and they say it cuts your legs. But I guess you are wearing a long dress.

They even have a sage green with some bling.

I like #1. I am a color girl too. Some awesome unexpected pop of color down on those feet would be amazing!! But If your going traditional I like #1. :)

I really like the peep toe. I love peep toe pumps!

This is so hard! I like #1 and #2 with the Hannah Platform at a #3! I am so excited! I can't wait to see which one you pick! Love you and can't wait to see you!!!!!

Celine said...

I like the first two but my favorite is the last one (Forbes Peep-toe Pump). Can't wait to hear what you decide!

Davianne said...

I think #2 is the BEST and #1 is a good runner up. I'm not a fan of #3 at all though. But that's just me. Oooh, I can't wait to see your dress!! And what shoes you picked!
