Shoe Advice Please!

Joebella44, 27 April, 2014 at 10:21 Posted on Planning 0 12

Hi All!

I'm in a dilema over my wedding shoes! I've fallen in love with these shoes, but they totally won't go with my dress! My dress is lace dress which is champagne/gold - sorry don't have a flash, deleted the one picture I had as panicked my H2B would accidentally come across it!

I figure you won't even see whatever shoes i wear as the dress covers my shoes. I've just ordered these ones in the sale as they were down from £150 to £69 so thought I'd at least see them in the flesh for such a good price!


There are is a cream/gold version that has just been released for spring/summer 2014 which would probably go better but they are at £150 which I'm not sure I can justify that much on shoes, well unless I wait until nearer the time and see what spare money we have left!

Just after peoples thought over whether it matters if the shoes go with the dress or not given it's unlikely people will see much of them?!

Thanks!

    The shoes are lovely! I don't think it matters too much about them matching - how often do you see the bride's shoes?

    Another thought it, will you wear them again? Or would you wear the other colour again? For me it all comes down to cost per wear - at least that's what I tell my OH! But it's your wedding day - you should get to wear whatever you want!

    Thanks! Yes my logic is you barely see the brides shoes! I think I would actually wear these again as they're so beautiful and would go with other things like when I go to other weddings or nights out. i hope they arrive soon so I can see them in the flesh!

    I think they'll be fine. I recently bought my wedding shoes in champagne and my dress is white but I don't think it matters as you won't see them.

    I think I saw these today in Debenhams, are they LK Bennett? They are lovely. I want some funky wedding shoes and spent 6 hours shopping for some today with no luck Smiley sad I like the Ted Baker ones but they've got a pointed toe.

    I love those pictures where the bride is flashing her cheeky shoes!

    My bride on Saturday had lips instead of hearts. They were fab!

My OH bought them for me, I often find myself walking around the house in them Smiley smile My dress is lace and I tried them on with it last week, they don't exactly match but they are more of a statement fun shoe. Go for it! I love mine and cannot wait to wear them at my wedding and afterwards x

    Daffodilwaves - I keep hearing that they smell amazing! I'm so intrigued by this lol Apparently the order is now on it's way so not too long now to wait too see them!

    You've all made me feel better about them not matching, as everyones said they will be under the dress. I think i'm just going to go for it!

    Well just an update for you all! The shoes arrived and, as everyone said, amazingly they do smell lush!!! Sadly they don't fit right :o( Unfortunately I'm a 6.5 shoe size and these were a 7 and were too big but from the fit of them I can tell the 6 will be too tight on my toes. They were also a little too high for me in reality, I probably need a kitten heel or wedge. So they'll be going back. I did see a cute pair in BHS for only £30 so hopefully they'll come back in stock and I can get them!
