Need help finding shoes - please submit your ideas!
Permalink Closed


Hi ladies!

I need your help to find some kind of fabulous, yet wearable and re-wearable shoes for my wedding. I've started looking and never knew it'd be so hard! I'd like a nice brand since the photogs seem to always take pics of the shoes.

Some info:
Daytime wedding (on grass - oceanside/view)
Lunch reception
Ruffled dress in silk tulle/organza layers (off-white) - the style is VERY similar to this:




The one shoe I've found so far that I like is this CL - but I don't know if the white is re-wearable. I can't seem to find the right something but it has to have something! (metallic, rhinestones, lace, color, you know?)



I'm open to suggestions! Also open to where to get them (online, ebay, etc.) I'm a 7.5/8. TIA!

i wouldn't get white since you mentioned grass and it's not really rewearable!

what are your wedding colors?  it might be fun to play on that...

I also like the idea of pale blue shoes as "something blue"

If you want to stay away from white, but like that CL shoe, here are some variations (I really like the gray)
Christian Louboutin Chiffon Peep-Toe PumpChristian Louboutin Crepe Satin Peep-Toe Pump


these are interesting with jeweled wood and metallic leather - Rene Caovilla ($314 marked down from $785) might be practical for grass and definitely wearable after - I think they're kind of cool and different...

Suasoria,

Yes - these are really hot and I love metallic and rhinestones! But I read an article b a wedding coordinator who mentions rhinestone styles tend to catch on the insides of dresses often. I may need to try some on with my dress to check if that's a possibility. Thanks!

Hi D! Thanks! I did see those and I like the first champagne colored CL a lot, but they don't have my size. cry.gif

Oh and my wedding clors are Bright Orange and Green (tropical, since it's in Hawaii).
Thanks!

D- where did you find this valentino? I went on Saks and only found it in red or balck.

These are beautiful but look painful (my litle toe seems to always get pinched by these kind of straps.

0452595041065_275x275.jpg
Yes - I like this one too - but none left in my size.


Prada

Now THIS hottie! I may have to order and try this one to see how it goes with my dress. I'd definitely wear this again!

Thanks!

I believe the valentinos were at bergdorf goodman... I looked at nieman's, saks, and bergdorf - so it's one of those three.

those pradas are something else, aren't they?

Christian Louboutin Chiffon Peep-Toe PumpChristian Louboutin Crepe Satin Peep-Toe Pump These are so pretty. Maybe you could try to track them down somewhere?
The Pelle Modas are beautiful too. Since Zappos has them you can try them out with your dress and see if the rhinestones catch.

Other options (though I think most of the beautiful shoes out there have already been posted!)
