When it comes to shopping, I have a tough time resisting a good buy. As most brides know, anything wedding related usually means the typical price tag doubles. One exception? Shoes. These days it seems that the typical white heel is not the first choice for many brides, and everyday shoes can become wedding day shoes! Many brides are opting for a pop of color and their shoe selection often correlates with the wedding’s decor. Because my dress is a champagne color, it seemed fitting my shoe could be gold (more on this later). AND, because my dress happened to be half the price of what I thought it would be, I figured I could use the extra budget on accessories. But then when I started doing some research, I found that although the designer collections were beautiful, I could purchase something very similar for 1/5 the price. Hmm..
Exhibit A: Manolo Blahnik Rhinestone buckle D’orsay, $675

Bella Belle “Cedaraby Carrie D’Orsay”, $69.99

Exhibit B: Christian Louboutin Blue Lizard Sandal, $1215.00
Jessica Bennett Heart, $109

Exhibit C: Guiseppe Zanotti I80191, $754

Nina Kimi LS, $154

So what do you think: would you go for the designer, or the price-conscious purchase? If you’ve purchased designer shoes for your wedding, did you ever wear them again?
