Blue Shoes?

[Sabine]

I wanted to do a quick poll, but can''t figure out how to do it. I just wanted to know how many of you out with floor length gowns are going with blue shoes as your something blue, how many are insisting their shoes match the exact shade of the dress, and how many are doing something totally different?

I deifnitely won''t do blue shoes, but I also don''t think the shoes have to match the excat ivory of my dress. I''m also thinking of using Gold.

For blue, I think I will put our initials with blue fake gems on the bottom of the shoes

A friend of mine did blue heels under her dress and it was amazing!! Of course you couldn''t see them all the time, but in the pics it was so unique!

Blue shoes is an awesome idea. I''m wearing silver patent leather shoes under my silvery white gown. And my latest step-mom (there have been many) wore bright red shoes under her gown (her fourth big white gown, mind you) at my suggestion. It looked great!

I think blue shoes would be fab and you should go for it.

I''m wearing blue undies. My shoes are gold.

 

[Independent Gal]

Shhhh... I''m wearing blue undies too.

I''m a blue shoe bride. Bright, peacock blue. I have a floor-length, ivory, mermaid-shaped dress. The blue shoes was the one wedding detail I actually cared about. Love them!

I think I''m going with something totally different...blue is a good idea. I was thinking bright pink or green, just to have something fun peek out from under there!!

 

[neatfreak]

I have hot pink shoes.

My dress is ivory, and I''m wearing these Champagne colored satin shoes.

I didn''t feel the need to have the shoes match exactly. It was difficult enough to find some that I liked that fit right.

 

[Tacori E-ring]

I think it is a cute idea! Mine were gold.

I'm not sure yet what kind of shoe I will be wearing as it'll all come down to the dress, but I definitely think I'd like to have blue shoes under my dress, or at least some kind of funky fun (comfy!) shoe thats not your standard wedding shoe. So anywho, I came across these today and am really tempted to order a pair to see how they fit and everything, and how the blue looks in person

blue shoes! blue shoes! I will be a blue shoe bride. Light blue, with my ivory dress. I can''t wait!
I don''t think the shoes have to match, just compliment the dress.

colour is great. i think blue shoes are an awesome idea. a friend of mine wore red shoes with her wedding dress. her dress didn''t quite hit her ankles and the ''pow'' of red looked great.

I''m a blue shoe bride! My sister hates them but I don''t care! It''s an outdoor wedding, on grass, and I''m unable to wear most "cute shoes" so these are my salvation. Plus I can dance in them! I wore them throughout our dance lessons. My dress is champagne/gold so I''m not worried about the beige part. It blends well.

I wore white satin D''Orsay shoes to my wedding, but for my Trash The Dress pics, I bought these blue D''Orsay pics from a seller on Ebay, popiconfashion for about $13.00.

They''re adorable in person, and only need an insert in the back to be completely comfortable.

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE those!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ETA: I searched and found them on ebay. Prob'ly not practical for me to get considering yesterday I was getting cortisone injections in my ankle

I'm planning on a beach wedding anyway and will be wearing flipflops, but maybe for a trash the dress photo shoot! They are TOO cute!

 

[Sabine]

Oooh, those are pretty!

They look a little painful for a whole wedding though. I actually tried on a really cute pair of navy peep toe pumps from nine west tonight, and there was no way i could even make it through the ceremony in them!

I''m in love with peep-toes, but like wine-tasting, they are definitely an acquired skill.

I wore very similar shoes for my wedding, and because I bought some shoe petals, they were fine.

However, I had a 15 minute ceremony, and didn''t have a traditional reception with a ton of dancing, but I had to do a TON of walking, since it was in Vegas at The Bellagio, and the locations for pics were pretty spread out.

My trash the dress shoot is in two locations in Oahu. It''ll be on the beach where a few scenes from Lost have been shot, and in the second shoot, we''ll be doing some underwater pics in a private residence''s pool on the beach. I''m trying to figure out how to work in my blue shoes in the underwater pics.

OOOOHHH! Blue shoes is such a neat idea!! I''m sure my very UNimaginative family would think I was crazy

I bought a pair of ivory ballerina flats to go under my ivory dress. They''re synthetic leather and were only $14 - I wonder if I could somehow make them blue.....

 

[Cleopatra]

YES! I have blues! I LOVE them and I adore the idea of blue shoes on your wedding day! All of my friends know and *expect* some sort of quirky style at my wedding - and I was planning on wearing some hot pink peep toe shoes...but I decided on royal cobalt blue shoes as my "something blue" - I'm not a "light blue" kind of girl - everything i do is loud and noticeable - especially when it comes to shoes - I own zillions of ridiculous heels

-

I'm attaching a pic of my new BCBG shoes - the color is not even close to what it looks like in person - they are truly a royal blue color. I love them - and they will be *my* little joy on my special day Fiance would expect nothing less
