Shoe Finale… Question Mark?

April 1st, 2008 @ 1:57 pm by Mrs. Toucan

For those of you following along with my small foot pink shoe search, I bring you the finale (possibly)! Since I’m pretty indecisive, shoe boxes are filling up my small apartment, AND my credit card bill doesn’t like me so much this month, I leave it to the hive to help me choose my wedding shoes!

Which shoe should I choose?

Option A. GUESS by Marciano Kierna:
Shoe Finale... Question Mark? :  wedding shoes Img 168
If you remember, these are the shoes I couldn’t find anywhere until Zappos notified me via email that they were finally in stock! They are so super cute, but I’m not sure how I feel about the slight toe cleavage….

Option B. GUESS by Marciano Millicent:
Shoe Finale... Question Mark? :  wedding shoes Img 16801A pro for this shoe is that it’s super tall, but at the same time pretty comfortable. The shoe has a slight covered platform that makes the height of the shoe more bearable. The drawback would be the metallic silver heel, or as Mr. Toucan calls it - the “hooker heel.”

Option C. Jessica Bennett Hood:
Shoe Finale... Question Mark? :  wedding shoes Img 16802Super cute, super frilly! This shoe is a satin shoe, unlike the other two, which are patent leather. However, I think that this shoe might run a little small, so they weren’t as comfortable as the other two pairs. If I go with this option, I’d order the size 6.

And lastly,

OPTION D:

Keep searching…

So, there you have it. My wedding shoe destiny officially lies in your hands…

If you can’t find any others, go with A, but keep looking, your perfect shoe is out there!

Definitely A! The story of how you finally got them is so cool, too! I think these are perfect. Beautiful, and perfect!

A…i think the toe will look better if you try it with a different nail color.

I agree there is slight toe clevage on A, but I think it’s the best of the bunch! Keep searching and if you can’t find anything else, I think A would be fine :)

@franola: I completely agree! I’m not a fan of my current toe nail color, actually. Come wedding day, I plan to pick something a little more muted. :)

Of the three - Guess Kierna is my favorite - but they look patent - which usually ends up being uncomfortable if worn too long because they don’t “move” with your feet. I also prefer a “softer” material for a wedding shoe - so I would like to combine shoe 1 and shoe 3 - style and color of shoe 1 (I think the toes look fabulous) with the material of shoe 3…. which is why I selected option 4. Good luck. Shoe shopping has been harder for me than dress shopping too! We are getting married in grass and I’m looking for an attractive wedge - feels impossible!

Of the three I like A the best, but I’m not sold on the patent leather with your dress.

I would go with C but keep an eye out for something you like better. You don’t sound convinced about any of those!

I like A too, but can attest that patent leather really cuts up your feet, especially with the toe cleavage. BUT I also have sasquatch (read: size 10) feet so everything hurts!

A or C are both REALLY cute. I think that C might go slightly better with your dress though.

I seem to be in the minority, but I LOVE B! And hooker heels would have a clear heel - if you’ve been to Honolulu, you know what I’m talking about.

Personally I think your foot looks kind of cramped and uncomfortable in A…I think it looked cuter online. It was my least favorite. I voted for “keep looking.” If I had to chose any I would say pair B b/c I think your foot looks the most elegant in those…they don’t look cramped at all.
