Earlier in the week, I wrote about the red wedding dress trend. Well, even if you’re not sure about going into the colorful wedding attire arena whole hog, you can still get in on the action with a bright pair of pumps. Let’s be honest, there’s basically nothing sexier than a red pair of peep toes, even more so when they’re peeking out from underneath your wedding gown.
These red patent pumps by Valentino Couture are gorgeous and unforgettable. I love the red patent bows on the top, and the semi-cylindrical heel and small platform will make them a lot easier …read more

To be truthful, I haven’t heard much about the Nina Ricci line in a long time. Don’t they make that perfume L’air du Temps or something? Anyways, when I saw their sale on Gilt, I basically shrugged, but clicked anyways. And boy oh boy, did I make the right decision. As far as I’m concerned, these are basically the best bridal shoes that look like bridal shoes but aren’t really bridal shoes ever. Did you catch that? Nevermind. Catch these:
Lovely, lovely, lovely. They’re silver satin, perfect to go with a silver or white gown. They have a rounded toe AND …read more

I used to be really dismissive towards Swarovski-encrusted items. Until this winter, when I visited the Swarovski store in Rockefeller Center, and saw all the crazy, ornate, and fabulous things that can be made out of the famous Austrian crystals. So, forget every gaudy crystal encrusted cell phone you’ve seen some socialite bimbo carrying, and try to look at these shoes with fresh eyes.
Bling bang boom. Wow. These are some serious bridal shoes. And while I am not always a fan of the heavily adorned, I think that these Aruna Seth Cerise wedges are elegant and sculptural. And a wedge, …read more

Allow me to explain to you my theory of bridal shoe shopping. Ladies, think of your wedding not as an opportunity to buy a mid-priced pair of shoes that you will never wear again, but as a chance to buy a really super amazing pair of shoes that you will want to wear all the time. This is the one time in your life (maybe) when you can say things to yourself like “money is no object”. Or something like that. In any case, unlike your dress, you CAN wear your shoes again, so why not do it?
If you’re wearing …read more

It’s really hard to find a pair of shoes that will not only work for your wedding day, but will also be fabulous to wear all year round.

If you’re really stuck on having white shoes, it might be a little harder on you, not because white shoes are bad, but they soil easily and are somewhat impractical. If you are willing to step outside of the bridal box for a moment and consider another neutral color, you might find some thing amazing like these gem-embellished pumps by Bourne. They have a little bit of that bridal look with the pale …read more

If you’re totally bored with the idea of hiding your something blue, why do it? Make your something blue make a splash with a pair of fabulous shoes.

I love these Jimmy Choo Satin Platform Pumps, they have everything a wedding shoe should, a bit of satin and a bit of bling. The deep violet blue would pop at the foot of any gown, and would bring out the best in your pedicure. Available for $1, 095 from Net-A-Porter.

Finding bridal shoes that are a)stylish and b)affordable is like finding that metaphorical old needle in a haystack. It’s easy to find a great pair of shoes for over $500, but when it comes to economizing, nothing says unnecessary expenditure like $500 shoes that you’ll only wear once. And with a lot of the discount lines, you get what you pay for: shoddy quality at a cheap price. But, thankfully, Steve Madden has come along to bridge the gap between style and budget consciousness with his new line of bridal shoes. Most of them are super classic, but some of …read more

Recently, I went to a wedding and the bride wore bright yellow peep-toe sandals.

They really made a statement, considering she was wearing a tea-length wedding dress. Many women are adding color on their wedding day with bright or metallic bridal shoes. How about you? Take our poll and let us know.
