During my dance lesson last week, my instructor told me about a dance shoe store in Manhattan where I could buy bridal shoes. Now, at first I was a bit skeptical. I mean, they are dance shoes. How could they be bridal looking?

Anyway, in my quest to find the perfect shoes, I went to Saks, Macys, Nine West, Enzo, and many many more. I was just making my way up to Stuart Weitzman when I ran out of time and had to go to my dance class. It’s a good thing too, because from what I’ve seen on their website, I think the Weitzman shoes are great. However, I absolutely cannot bring myself to spend $300 on shoes that I will only (probably) wear once.

So I went to the dance shoe store today and fell in love. The sales people are so friendly and knowledgeable. Also, they had no problem punching extra holes in my shoe straps just so that I could try them on properly! Here is the 3 inch heel, off-white, satin dance shoe that I bought.

And can I just say, Woah, these babies are comfortable!! Especially when you add these paddings to them to the toe area. They are so cushion-y!!

The best part? The shoes were only $125, less than half of what I would have paid at Stuart Weitzman. And they are dyeable, in case I decide to dye them black for later.

Look at some of the other shoes they had!

I know they look similiar but the website does not even begin to show you all of the different types of shoes they had. I almost bought strappy ones in gold, and tried on some beautiful ones in bronze/copper. I think they would have also looked great with my color scheme. The prices ranged from $50 to $175 dollars, approximately.

I know a lot of people buy shoes on the internet for a lot cheaper, but I am one of those people who must try on a pair of shoes for at least 10 minutes before I can buy them. And comfort played a big role in my decision to buy these babies. So, if you are like me (an obsessive shoe shopper) and must try on shoes, and are interested in comfortable shoes for your wedding, I highly recommend this place.
