Hitting Oxford Street On Saturday For Wedding Shoes :0)

Cricket Bride will be able to point you in the right direction!!

**yells**

CB, Where are you!!!!

I shall wait to see if CB can answer my wedding shoe prayer ?

Really having trouble with this part of the prep ?

Well apparently Selfridges has the biggest shoe department in the world! Other than that I like Aldo....

I would say Selfridges and Debenhams are probably your best bet.

TBH Oxford street shoe shopping is my actual idea of hell - so I tend to avoid that so perhaps I am not the best person to ask! I find that Oxford street also has lots of High street shops, which are just bigger and show all the range as per the website.

Oxford Street on Sat- you must be bonkers!!

Failing that Selfridges, Debenhams and BHS all have bridal sections so you will find "weddingy" sort of shoes.

OR there are about a billion normal shops, theres Office and another shoe shop opposite Topshop thats name escapes me.

Hello!

I hate Oxford Street on a Saturday with a passion so arm yourself with comfy shoes, some water, a lot of patience and some sharp elbows.

I'd recommend Selfridges as your starting point - biggest collection of shoes under one roof, certainly in Europe, maybe the world.

I'd also suggest you check out House of Fraser, John Lewis, Debenhams and Liberty (amazing Blahnik collection in there at the moment). Have a look in places like the Bridal rooms at House of Fraser, Pronovias and Berketex.

Also big displays in high street names like Aldo, Kurt Geiger, LK Bennett, Hobbs etc.

Going a little bit further afield, I'd suggest the lovely boutiques on Chiltern Street (in between Baker Street and Oxford Street) and Harrods and Harvey Nichols (Knightsbridge).

I'd also suggest you pop into Hush Brasserie just off Oxford Street for a medicinal cocktail to help you through the day!

Good luck!

TOLD you CB would come through with the goods!!

There's also Emma Hope to consider. You've also got the bigger names of Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik, Christian Louboutin, Rupert Sanderson etc to consider.

Westfield, near Shepherd's Bush, is a great place for shoes. I tend to buy a lot of mine from 'The Village' there. Nice, relaxed atmosphere. Far less 'shopping mall' than most places, too.

CB you are like the Oracle of London.....I bow down to thee...

I know my shoes and I know my food and drink haunts, Mrs Shark! ?

Thanks Ladies. Jotting all name down so I can plan my day :0)

Think Jimmy Choo outta my price range, though would be nice @o)

Wow CricketBride you are like the Guru of weddings ? I have jotted all your points down and am hoping to find my dream shoes on Saturday.

Thanks you everyone for all your comments and help x

WATCH OUT OXFORD STREET HERE I COME :o)

I have ordered these from bhs (they are online exclusive). £35 but found a £5 discount code online too. I had a pair of BHS shoes for bridesmaid duties last year and found them really comfortable all day.

good thing is I will pick them up from the store so if not happy with them can return there and then!

Yes I see them when I looked on the web the other day. I am making it my mission to pop into BHS as have found a tiara i like (just want mums opinion before i buy) and try a few of their shoes on.

Thank you

I love The Village at Westfield, and the champagne bar in there, mmmmm
