I’m pretty sure the salespeople at Macy’s think I’m a crazy lady. I’m sure because of the sale they were running on the weekend they saw lots of ladies walking out with multiple pairs of shoes, but I’m pretty sure I was probably the only one walking out with multiple pairs of shoes all in the same shade of HOT PINK.

Though I did buy one pair for myself (the Carlos shoes), the rest were for my bridesmaids! A little unconventional, yes, because my bridesmaids are wearing BLUE! I’ve found that the color that I’ve chosen for my ladies is a little hard to match without getting dyed-to-match shoes. Even though I wasn’t crazy about the idea, I told them that wearing black shoes would probably be fine. Then, the Macy’s shoe sale happened (me + shoe sales = danger), and I thought… why try to match at all? Since hot pink/fuschia is my other wedding color (and I LOVE bold-colored shoes), I quickly picked up a few pairs of pink shoes and raced home to test out the combo.

Ta-da! Here I’m wearing my sister’s dress and the shoes I bought her:

You may notice, these are the same shoes as Miss Dahlia’s except in pink!

(hehe… you can see how big the shoes are on me!)

Probably not what most people think bridesmaid shoes should be, but I like it anyway! I love the sudden pop of color, and I think it will tie in more nicely when the girls are holding bouquets with matching pink ribbon wraps.

I’m a little afraid to ask, but I’ll ask anyway. What do you think? Would you do a bold bridesmaid shoe?
