Silver shoes for sparkly wedding toes
By special request… silver shoes! I’ve done many posts about sparkly shoes (which of course includes silver), but never have I just set my sights on this one type of metallic.
As always, I tried to get a full range of options — from the holographic Vivienne Westwood flats above, to sparklingly prim little pumps, to dapper Oxfords so sparklingly silver that they might as well be disco balls. You’ll find a range of prices, too. And the bonus shoe stays in the metallic flavor, but comes way WAY out of left field, reminding me of some club kid shoes I wore in the mid-’90s.
Coral wedding shoes: pumps, flats, and skulls! [UPDATED for 2023!]
Can we talk about coral? It’s not quite orange, but not quite pink. It’s definitely brighter than peach, and it complements teal perfectly if you’re into that kind of thing. It’s also the color that I’m single-mindedly fixating on today, with a whole post full of pumps, flats, and the most adorably dapper coral nubuck oxfords. Interestingly, several of these shoes also involve skulls in various ways… I love it when macabre details show up in unexpected places.
Wedding shoes with very low heels {UPDATED!}
You know how I wore those 4-inch pumps last weekend? Yeah, I still can’t totally feel two of my toes. Those shoes were so cute, but fuck you guys: TOO TALL! I heard from one Offbeat Bride who said that she wore heels on her wedding day and couldn’t feel a couple of her toes until she got back from the honeymoon. NooOoOooo, friends! Noooo! Save the toes!
In the spirit of non-numb toes, this week I’m going to focus on low-heeled shoes. A few flats, but mostly low heels with nothing over 2″ high. Enough to get a little lift, but not so much that you can’t feel your toes. Join me?
Advanced wedding footwear: high heels I love but probably can’t walk in
For those of you who are more advanced heel-walkers than I am, I decided to round up a collection of shoes that I absolutely adore… but probably can’t walk in. If you can manage these on your wedding day, I bow down to you. In fact, maybe that’s the solution: if someone bows down and carries you around on your wedding day, these are all the perfect shoes. PERFECT.
Frilly foofles: delicate little shoes with fancy-fance detailing
Ok, my fellow fancy bitches. I know you’re out there, picking the lace edging on your adorable vintage dresses, twiddling the little bows on the puffed sleeves and biting your impeccably glossed little lips. For the lovers of the frilly froofy stuff, there cannot be enough delicate detailing. There cannot be enough feminine touches. We demand more ruffles and tiny laces!
Striped wedding shoes, summer 2013 edition
When I featured polka-dot shoes last month, I got more than a few messages saying “Striped shoes next!” Ever one to appease the offbeat needs, I am here with a boat-load full of striped wedding shoes.
