Seriously. My first dress fitting is in less than two weeks, and I still don’t have a viable pair of shoes to wear. And it’s not from lack of research or shoe purchases. I have officially bought FIVE pairs of shoes for the big event– and I have returned four of them.

I showed you the first pair, which I actually bought for 32 bucks!!

I loved them, but then I tried them on with my dress. They are just too clunky looking.

The next few I bought barely made it out of the package before they were returned:

These showed up damaged, and were just too high.

I knew these were the wrong green, but I bought them anyway.

These too showed up damaged, yet I still tried them on with the dress and they actually looked the best. They are on their way back to endless.com as we speak (thank goodness for free returns).

And I can’t find a picture of the last pair. They are from Nordstrom and they are olive green-ish with a bow. They were also the wrong color and had too high of a heel. They were returned within 48 hours.

So, here I am, five pairs of shoes later and still have nothing that works. I have found a few contenders, but I seriously need the hive’s help and opinion.

In my dreams I am wearing a 1. Satin, 2. Green or pink (or ivory in a pinch), 3. Strappy, 4. 2-2.75 inch heel, and 5. Not too expensive pair of shoes (meaning ideally under $100 bucks). These five qualities seem next to impossible to find.

So, I present you with my top contenders- none of them embody all five qualities. Please help a girl out and tell me which pair I should wear, or at least buy and try on. And if you have any better suggestions, PLEASE let me know. I just don’t really want to be barefoot!!

Contender 1: Mr. Peep’s choice. He calls the shoe “Pink and Little Pink”.

Contender 2: I’d get these either in white and dye them, or in brown. But I have to say, I am worried about dying shoes—I mean, where does a girl even go to do that?

Contender 3: These are just some sweet looking shoes.

Contender 4: I found these on J.Crew’s website this morning and they are totally on sale. I am not sure if the ivory will match. Does anyone know if these are dyeable if they don’t match? I think these might be the safest bet, but they are on final sale, so there will be no returns!!

And finally, Contender 5: I love, love, love these sweet little shoes. They fit all my requirements save for the price. They are too expensive. Should I just take the plunge and buy them?

Oh, and if you have a Contender 6 for me, let me know in the comments!

Thanks ladies. I can’t wait to hear your opinions!!
