If you know me, you know that on my free time I’m usually barefoot. If I must wear heels to an event or for a night out, they typically come off within an hour and there is no telling where they end up. I had no doubt that I wanted to wear flip-flops on my wedding day (for comfort and to avoid losing a $500 pair of shoes) and I figured my girls would enjoy that as well – not to mention, I didn’t want them towering over me in photos! Brides can be very Carrie Bradshaw with a shoe choice; similar to the approach her man takes with his socks. Go all out – it’s the best way to showcase your personal style and tie in color.
Since yellow is so representative of spring and a key player in my color pallet, I’ve picked some favorites below. Mostly heels because even though I have no business wearing them, it’s pure eye candy.

Liz,
ReplyDeleteI am so loving your blog! It makes my smile and also makes me feel sane knowing that you are thinking the same things I am about traditional invitation copy (made me want to barf!) and shoes!!! I am wearing flat strappy sandals when I walk down the aisle - blue rose Tory Burch! I am thrilled to break the heel tradition as they are just not me (plus, I would be towering over my poor fiance!).
Keep up the blogging.
XO
Al
