Can we talk about Chie Mihara?! She's a shoe designer in Spain who crafts insanely stylish but also freakishly comfortable shoes (she got her start working in an orthopedic shoe store).
Now, these shoes are more on the Fluevog level of cost — we're talking $300 – $400. They're also on the Fluevog level of quality, because as much as we all love our cheap T.U.K.s or Iron Fists, those pleather suckers just aren't made to last. Chie Miharas, however, are life-long lovers that you buy for your wedding and wear forever.

The marabou! The hearts! Hearts in my EYES!
Sigh… the purple ones…
Am I crazy to think you could wear them for business too? I mean, they’re dark, right?
TOTALLY for business. With some nice little slacks or a skirt? Completely professional.
(I mean, and she makes a ton of black pumps, too.)
I need that last one. Need. It.
AMAZING shoes – really good quality, cool design and she cares about comfort 🙂
I can’t wait to buy mine!
Her website has even more shoes – she even has a dedicated ‘wedding’ shoe section.
Ooh oxfords for wedding shoes!!!!
I’m a card-carrying Chie Mihara fan club member, or I would be if there were cards… As for weddings, Ped Shoes put the idea of a bride wearing these silvery Chie sandals into my head. Now I love them and am about to splurge.
I am not engaged, I’m not getting engagd, I am not planning to get married ever. I just come here for the shoes…
Agree. Chie Mihara is a great designer but I still haven’t found my perfect shoes.
I really like these ones http://www.theweddingshoes.com/ophelia-ivory-satin/
…although they are not Chie design…
I am wearing a red version of the “sour” design (the gold ones in this post with the roses that cascade down the t-strap) for my wedding in September. Found them at Lord & Taylor on sale. LOVE her shoes, they are so 1940’s… 🙂
I got the t-straps with the hearts (in the first picture) for my wedding and fell completely in love. I don’t wear heels and I cannot stress enough that these shoes are not only beautiful, but comfortable! I feel completely secure walking in them, which for me is saying a lot. I really never wear heels.
