Accessorize-Search for Shoes

I’ve found several amazing shoe options online. My biggest hurtle with shoes is that they have to be just the right heel height to keep my dress length un-altered. The problem with this is that every time I have help to get the damn thing on I forget to go through my shoes and decide on a heel height. Kind of crucial no?

I promise, next time I won’t forget!

Also, I’ve got funky wide feet so whatever I buy should be tried on before the money flies out the window. In order to be as weird as possible, I’ve decided I want a colored shoe. Ivory would look very sweet, and if I can’t find what I want in a luscious dark plum, I will certainly defer to the traditional look. I’ve told my bridesmaids they can wear purple shoes if they want, it would look fantastic!

So now, on with the pretty parade…

These Nina beauties are my favorite by far, but the heel is much too high.  Pretty sure I need a 3 inch and these are 4 inch.  Bummer.

If these had a closed back they would be a very nice, traditional choice.

Good god these are some hot soup!  Usually I do not like rounded, closed-toe heels, but these are the sexy exception!  Those ruffles on the back???  The color???  The covered heel???  All HOT!  I cannot have these pretty things because the heel is over 4 inches and I'll fall on my face whilst making my way down the aisle and everyone will laugh at me.

Ahh, then there's the Maylie by Enzo Angiolini. I picked up a pair of these in a beautiful copper-hued, beaded finish at Macy's on clearance and haven't looked back. They are the most comfortable, well fitting heels I have ever owned. After 2 years of wearing them every chance I get I've managed to bang them up and have since tried searching for another pair. Unfortunately Enzo doesn't seem to be making them in the beaded finish anymore, they are all fake-ass looking crocodile texture and this weird sponged on paint patterned vinyl. Wack. I have tried looking for these in a neutral finish that I could dress up with shoe clips or something, they are so comfortable I could wear them all night.

The search continues...
