I’m so very sad to say that my beautiful KORS Allie Sandals from Gilt Groupe will not be shipped to me. I received a notice that the order would finally be shipped and when I went to track the package, I noticed the following message.
Oh no! They sold my shoes to someone else!
Well hive, I’m back at square one for my Ceremony Shoes. Here’s my current criteria for Ceremony Shoes:
Here are a few options I’ve considered so far - but none of them have truly felt like “the ones.”
Rafe New York Black Striped ‘Vanessa’ Wedge Sandals
$112.99 (50% off) @ Bluefly.com
Sooo close to the original shoes - but it doesn’t seem as dressy or fun.
Christian Louboutin Black Polka Dot ‘Menorca’ Peep Toe Espadrilles
$248 (20$% off) @ Bluefly.com
WAY cute - but not in my size or my budget.
These Mohop shoes aren’t in my price range either, but are extremely versatile. I could definitely wear them again and with pretty much anything because the ribbons are interchangeable. They come with the ribbon set of your choice - and take a look at the black/white stripe in the Neutrals ribbon set shown below.
Mohop Cherry Wedge Platform Sandals
$298 @ Mohop
I love the fourth ribbon from the top - it’s almost perfect!
Still - nothing is quite the $40 fabulous shoe I fell in love with before. I guess I will just have to keep searching. Perhaps a pair of the Allies will turn up on eBay within my budget - or perhaps I will discover new love!
Please help me shoe shop! Do any of you have any shoe shopping suggestions for me?

They aren’t expensive, but they might do the trick!

can’t say i didn’t try!
The original pair were really great. Sorry it didn’t happen for you. Not sure if this helps but the Nordstrom half yearly sale begins Friday I think and they may have deals on shoes.
I also saw this
http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/37657219/c/151.html
The deals at Gilt Groupe are awesome. Would it be possible to invite me to join? Here’s my email address if it’s possible. atsmiley@gmail.com
would you be willing to “invite me” to join gilt groupe? i would be oh so thankful!
how about any of these?

i’m definitely wearing naturalizer at our wedding… they’re no longer “old lady shoes.” they have some great designers now. these were the only ones that really fit your criteria.
good luck

This has a leather upper though:

Are you by any chance a 9 and would teal match? I love love love these shoes.
The Rafe pair actually strikes ME as more weddingy than the Kors ones - they’re not as chunky, and are still a wedge so you can walk in them…but that may just be me.
They’re adorable!!
hi~! i was wondering if you’d be willing to invite me to gilt groupe! you and i have some identical shopping habbits =)) I’d truly appreciate it~

I would be so thankful if you could invite me to join gilt groupe? Here is my email camille@deluxecreativestudio.com
I think that the first two are the best options. I don’t think that the third pair look very comfortable or outdoorsy…even though they are wood.
I really like these…but I’m not sure that there is enough black in there for ya!

Also, I tried to look at the shoes on gilt groupe but wasn’t able to. Is there a limit to how many people you can invite? If there isn’t please invite me!!! I’m still in need of a shower dress, rehearsal dress and shoes for both!!! my email is afilesi at gmail dot com
I would also love an invite if you wouldn’t mind.
I also really love the Kate Spade sandals that people have posted for you…and the one on ebay is a great deal!!!
These aren’t completely what you’re looking for, but pretty darn adorable! http://www.endless.com/oh-DEER-oh-DEER-Womens-Sandal/dp/B0010KV9TA/ref=pe_ch_071708S
http://www.payless.com/Catalog/ProductDetail.aspx?&TLC=Womens&SLC=WomensDress&BLC=WomensDressTrendy&Width=Regular&ItemCode=60058&LotNumber=062500&Type=Adult&Popularity=618&DescriptiveColor=Black&cm_re=S08_p09a_20080708*Dress*062500-Black(Infrared_Platform_Pump)
These shoes are cute and affordale there only $13.99 at Payless.
These seem to be very similar to the original KORS pair - Ann Klein New York - Belen - wedge botton black and white dotted fabric, available in size 8 and at $92.50 its still manageable - http://www.shoes.com/Shopping/ProductDetails.aspx?p=EC1021707&pg=5031585
Good Luck!

Darn! The allie shoes are on ebay for $40 but they are size 7! The Vanessa is super cute too and the Mohop are so intriguing. Could you justify by saying it is 5 shoes in 1 so they really only cost $59.60 each 
also these but the link won’t work =/
Wow! You guys are all amazing shoppers! Thank you so much - I’ve been pooring over these and checking them all out.
@Miss Green Tea: Ooh yeah those Kate Spades caught my eye too - but do you think the raffia instead of white would look weird?
@Lindsay: I loooove these! They are so cute!
@kristeen: Those AK espadrilles are TOTALLY knockoffs of some Loubs I’ve been trying to track down! So cute!
I think I’m going to keep my eye out for my favorites on eBay to try and get a deal. Thanks again - you guys are awesome!
@funmarysf: Oh thank you for thinking of me! It’s too bad they only have them in navy… 
Look at these!! I have them in pink and LOVE THEM. They’re the wrong size, but you may be able to do some sleuthing for them….
I was just reading about your shoe issues and this fabulous gilt site- is it too late to be invited?
I just saw these shoes and thought of you!
http://www.piperlime.com/browse/product.do?cid=36502&pid=568690&scid=568690002
I’m not sure if your quest has been fulfilled, but I just saw these shoes and thought they were adorable. Might be too stiletto-y, but doesn’t hurt to pass along (plus they are on uber-sale)…

About Me: Hi, I'm Miss Pomegranate and I'm a shopaholic. I have a weak spot for the chic cheap - especially anything I can re-create on the DIY. Shoes are my vice, music is my passion in life and technology is the medium by which I live and work. When I'm not scoping out a sale, I'm spending my quality time training for a marathon, playing Wii with my fiance and snuggling with my Silver Labrador and Teacup Panther - and oh yeah, planning my wedding!
