Something Blue, Or Maybe Teal…
April 23rd, 2008 @ 1:25 pm by Mrs. Penguin
I ordered all of my bridesmaids’ shoes. They decided to go with ivory to match the ivory band on their dresses, so they picked up this cute little number from Chinese Laundry:
I was looking for a cheap shoe so I could purchase all 4 pairs, because I didn’t feel comfortable asking my bridesmaids to buy a white shoe, since it’s not really a color that you may ever wear again. They were a great price ($60) and just so darn cute…I couldn’t resist and snagged myself a pair in teal:
I know that it’s “My Big Day” and I’m supposed to be special and whatnot, but I think having a matching pair of shoes to my Bridesmaids would be so cute! I do already have a pair of shoes that I was planning to wear:
But I was never quite feeling the gold heel, especially because I’d like to wear silver earrings. I’ll still keep my options open, as both Endless.com and Zappos.com (where I ordered from) have great 365 day return policies, so it doesn’t hurt to have a few pairs to choose from right?

I’m a bit more partial to the Chinese Laundry heels, and just out of curiosity what happened to those fun peep toe shoes you picked out?
I like the Chinese Laundry shoes. The colors and the style looks so nice. I wish I known earlier so I can order one but I just recently brought something else from ninashoes.com
But thanks for sharing it, maybe I can consider get those shoes in the future that can match my dress for my friend’s wedding.
I have a pair of those exact Chinese Laundry shoes in gold and despite how high the heels are, they are one of the most comfortable shoes I own! As a matter of fact, I wore them to a wedding for 6 hours and had no blisters on my feet! Score! Not to mention the fact that they are super sexy for an added bonus! =)
The Chinese Laundry heels are * the * most * comfortable * thing ever. I wear them out and LOVE how my feet feel great after a night of dancing!!
I just love the bow on the Guess ones!
I voted for chinese laundry because I have these and they are comfortable. EIther way you will be one hot sexy Pengyho!
@Buckeye: What a great memory 
I’m afraid the heel isnt high enough 
Mr Penguin is a foot taller than me so every extra inch helps! These shoes are 1.5 inches taller than the first pair of peep toes I picked out!
My vote is for the Chinese Laundry shoes! Not only b/c the are so comfy, but I think its cute that you will have the same shoes as your BMs
Those are totally my bridesmaid shoes too! My lovely BMs are wearing that shoe in silver.
I like the Chinese Laundry shoes. I ordered Chinese Laundry shoes for myself (to wear at my wedding) and I ordered them through Heels.com….they were the same price as Macy’s but there was no sales tax and they shipped them FedEx overnight…I got them the very next day.! If anyone is looking for shoes, give Heels.com a try.
My vote goes to the Chinese Laundry shoes! Super comfy and chic
@AliCherri1: Totally agree with you on matching the BM’s .. cute idea
My vote goes for the Chinese Laundry shoe. I have a pair in gold. Super comfy and the ivory looks so chic and classy!
the guess, totally cute!! i’m in the minority but have no idea why, haha. i’m always right! lol. maybe i just think it looks cuter in pictures. plus, platforms give you a little oomph if that matters. either way, both are super cute!
I wore those Chinese Laundry shoes (in silver) to a wedding and they were VERY comfortable. I luv them.
LOVE the Chinese Laundry ones, and the idea of you having the same shoes as them in teal

About Me: I'm a silly mess of a girl who, above all else in this world, LOVES the Spice Girls. I eat sushi at least 3 times a week, and feel guilty about how much it costs the other 4 days a week. I love designer jeans and cheap accessories. I don't like sweets, but I love the UCLA Bruins!
I was just going through this myself! My bridesmaids and I are going to wear matching madras sandals…not that anyone will be able to see mine, but they were cute, so who cares!
