ok, i don't have a dress yet. but i do know i want blue shoes to wear under my dress. my "dream" shoe is j.crew augusta; however they are sold out on their website. i've searched the internet but haven't found any that compare that would be in my price range (around $100). today i was out shopping & came across these nine west shoes. but i can't decide: are they dressy enough? i found a great price (under $20), so should i go ahead and get them or hold out? i mean, i don't even have a dress yet! talk some sense into me, ladies! here they are attached, light blue suede nine west shows

Cute!! I think they'd be dressy enough for me, but I don't know what you have planned for your dress/venue! And for under $20, wow, can't beat that! You could always get them and try them out around the house and if you change your mind, send them back?

do you have a max mara outlet by you? if so it might be worth a trip! i was in one in NY recently and they had the most gorgeous tall blue satin shoes.

lulu66! i just looked up the j.crew augusta and i love those shoes! they are awesome. do you have time to wait until they come back in stock? they are really pretty. i like your other choice too but i think you should get the shoes you have your heart set on :)

cocolaw unfortunately, the the boondocks of KY no max mara anywhere near by; but thanks for the suggestion!

dani2142 aren't they the greatest?! i don't know if they are just out of stock or discontinued. is there anyway to know for sure?

i do have LOTS of time till the wedding, so i don't think i'm going to jump the gun. i don't the nine west ones & i don't think i'd wear them any other time or else i'd go ahead and pick them up. so, i'll wait & hope for some light blue satin shoes w/a bow :)

I don't know what size you wear, but there are two pairs on ebay right now (sizes 9 & 9.5). These shoes are beautiful- keep checking ebay!

I have the Betsey Johnson Gemma shoes. They are gorgeous in real life, but the patent around the fabric's edges are iridescent. Which I loved, but it doesn't show up in the picture, so I wanted to make sure you knew about it if you like those.

One note about the original shoes. I noticed that they are actually leather, although they look like they are suede.

When is your wedding? I'd say if it's in the next 6 months or so, start looking for shoes now (I loved the Augustas too) but if you're a year out, I'd think about waiting until Spring, because I'm betting that J Crew (and probably other companies) will be putting out pretty lighter blue shoes then. However, should you see a pair that you love, even this far in advance, GRAB THEM!

(I bought my first pair of wedding shoes the week before we even got engaged. But I'm weird.)
