Wedding Please vote for my wedding shoes!

[calidaisy]

i went shopping today and found two of my DREAM shoes on SALE today.

actually, i don't know if that's a good thing since they are both super pricey even with their 30+(?)% off.

since the only way i can justify buying shoes that expensive is to wear in my wedding (as well as in other occasions) ... please vote for my wedding shoes.

feel free to add comments or just write a number.

(1) chanel
(2) christian louboutin
(3) NO to both ... continue looking
(4) keep them both and don't go shoe shopping for the next million years (yeah ... right

)

first picture is christian louboutin.

chanel shoes is in this post: https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/black-shoes-for-wedding.85629/
i cannot seem to upload the picture again.

You can probably upload the picture again by changing the name of the file slightly. I vote for the Louboutins, but I''m biased, because I''d get those for my own wedding if they were even remotely in the budget.

 

[calidaisy]

thanks, pjean!

here''s the chanel.

 

[Sabine]

I''m not a big fan of the chanel, but I love the louboutin''s!

 

[JulieN]

I don''t think the Chanel shoes are sexy or cute. I''m wondering if it''s even pretty? I like the pink ones.

 

[rockzilla]

Could you walk in either of them? I know I couldn''t!

Asthetically, I like the pink ones, the chanel ones not so much. But its going to be really tough to walk or dance in either...

 

[basil]

Well, it sort of depends on your personal style. Which would you wear more often?

To me the Chanels seem a little casual for a wedding dress, plus I''m not a big fan of the black for wedding. So I guess I''d choose the Louboutins. But if you think you''ll wear those Chanels a lot later, then get those.

 

[Harriet]

The Louboutins!

 

[MMM]

louboutin!

 

[MMM]

full disclosure...
they remind me of these, which i think i''m going to get for my wedding.

hehe...
so my vote may be a bit biased.

but, i stand by my vote, still i think they are great! and it''s such a great pink, and definitely, definitely re-wearable.

 

[MMM]

oh, just in case anyone wonders, those shoes are Jessica Bennett
Henley --- they are on zappos.

 

[researcher]

Louboutins!!!

Yep, I agree with Julie on this. My vote's for the Louboutins - I think they're GORGEOUS and SUPER SEXY

LOVE THE FIRST ONES! (#2) They are gorgeous! But #4 is never a bad option!

The CL''s--if you think you can stand and walk in them all day

 

[karasue91]

hahaha how funny, my FSIL just got those loubies too!! don''t think she got them on sale though....i don''t think i have the heart to tell her they are on sale now!!

i definitely vote loubies, they are even cuter in person than in the pic, if she will ever let me i will be borrowing them from her for sure.

HI:

I saw the CL''s on Sat and they were adorable! Don''t know how they feel on, but certainly looked good!

P.S. Hello Researcher!

cheers--Sharon

 

[diamondfan]

Cali, are the CL''s fushia? If so, though I love them, I am not sure how they work as a wedding shoe though I like the overall style.

The Chanels are cool but VERY gimmicky to me. I do NOT see those as wedding shoes. They are cool in a funked out stylized sort of way, but not under a wedding dress.

Also, CL''s are, for the most part, NOT comfy. I go one half to one whole size UP in his shoes, and if your feet swell at all you will be begging for mercy after a couple of hours. Just a warning, from someone who wears every high end shoe there is, and loves CL, but has seriously had to remove my shoes and soak my feet after a couple of hours in them.

Number 2. More bridal than #1. And you can rewear them after the wedding, where as with the black and white...very trendy and not super rewearable like the CLs.

Plus, I dig the pink satin, and they remind me of my Nine West green satin heels...

 

[RLG]

love,love,love the Louboutin pair.

 

[calidaisy]

wow ... thanks everyone for all your responses!

i fell in love with the chanel shoes when i saw them online.
however, it wasn''t as pretty or comfy when i tried them on today. nevertheless, i LOVE the 5-inch heels and thought i could wear them with jeans or something after the wedding.

CLs onl the other hand, were pretty when i saw them online but were even prettier in real life.

i tried 1/2 bigger than my regular size and seemed to fit me fine and i think i can wear them with black dresses and stuff.

i hate dancing (cuz i have 2 left feet

) and don''t plan to have one at MY wedding ... since it was torturous enough trying to dance at other people''s) ... so no need to worry about that. my only concern is not to fall flat on my face when i walk down the aisle.

anyway, i was hoping that more people would vote for #4 ... but i guess i can buy only one pair of nice shoes at a time.

 

[SarahLovesJS]

I like the pink ones!!

 

[diamondfan]

Who says you can only buy one pair at a time? NOT ME.

 

[FrekeChild]

Lol. I''m REALLY with DF on this one, but pink shoes for the wedding!!

 

[diamondfan]

Hey, I just bought three pairs last week for no reason, so do not look to me to tell YOU not to! I got beige patent Louboutin pumps, black patent Miu Miu sling backs with a slightly rounded toe and a pair of black patent Prada peep toe pumps. The latter two are not super high but are still a nice heel.

If you LOVE both, I would get both. Will pink work as a wedding color at all? Could be really adorable to see color under the dress, it is so unexpected.

 

[IrishBreakfast]

Louboutins! Those are adorable!

 

[doodle]

i vote 4, but i''m an enabler...

DF, you are my hero!!!!!!

 

[Rhea]

I like the pink ones better. The black & white ones are clunky and not really cute to me.

 

[ksinger]

The pink ones, says she, wistully. Wistfully, because I could wear shoes like that - with a slightly lower heel mind you, for about 15 minutes when I was 17. After that, it was no freakin'' way. Even youth could not alleviate the flatter-than-a-fritter feet I was born with, so even simply viewing shoes like that causes little frissons of remembered pain along with their aesthetic appeal.

Seriously, don''t let your special day be ruined by excruciating shoes. Even if you regularly wear shoes like that, you will be on your feet virtually all day....think about it.

The black and whites - I just can''t help it, all I get are visions of something vaguely Dr Suess, or they evoke the stockings worn by The Wicked Witch of The West in The Wizard of Oz.

I vote for sticking with the pink...
