The Perfect Shoes…Two Months Late

The Perfect Shoes…Two Months Late

Oh, pretty pink shoes. How you evaded me during my months-long search.

Sure, I eventually settled for these:

They were too high and too foot-bearing (so risqué!), so I only wore them in the morning on our wedding day. I had to switch to ivory shoes midday. Ivory! Do you hear that, pink shoes of the world? For shame.

What I really wanted was a pink shoe with a lower heel. Maybe with the bow front and center. And comfortable, so I could wear them under my wedding dress all day and night. Well, whattayaknow. I found it! Two months too late.

You dumb shoe. I can’t believe your timing. Yes, I still bought you. You were the only pair of your kind in the Kate Spade outlet store, and you were in my size! You’re also quite pretty and, honestly, you are my ideal wedding shoes. I don’t know what I planned to do with you when I took you home, but I did figure out one use:

Yep, I wore my post-wedding shoes in our post-wedding shoot! More to come of those photos soon.

Before I go, I should note that I actually adored my original pink shoes and ivory shoes. My mom wore the silver version of my ivory shoes to the wedding, and while no one noticed our match-iness, it gave me a happy heart. So yay for ivory shoes, too.

Did you find anything that was just perfect for your wedding… after your wedding?

i’m glad you got to wear them for something, and you will wear them again (i see them as the perfect accessory for jeans and your favorite top). also, thanks for posting them because i just clicked over to zappo’s and purchased them for my wedding shoes!!!

Thank you for your lovely comments! Can’t wait to share more post-wedding photos with you!

@MissChirpie & @heather25 & @cabanagrl9: I got the dress from a shop in Naperville called Bri’Zan Couture. There are no tags inside the dress, so I have no idea what the brand is! Sorry I can’t help more!
