Do my shoes have to match.....

My brides maids are wearing alfred angelo's eggplant purple ( this picture is the color NOT the dress)

and I cannot find any shoes that will match that color that I like. 
I don't like any of AA's shoes to get them dyed the eggplant color from AA.

I did find shoes that I did like-

click the first purple in the second row of colors- royal purple
but the purple wont match-
I did get samples from the company- the purple doesnt look as bright on the sample as in the pic.
Has anyone gotten their shoes from my glassslipper.com in this shade?

Is it ok that my shoes, etc.. purple dont match my bridesmaids exactly? 

or will it clash?

Re: Do my shoes have to match.....

  • Not at all. Go with what you like, dont try and match their dresses.

    I did so many different shades of purple it really didnt matter. Good Luck.

  • They don't need to match. I wore white shoes and my BM's wore silver shoes.

    Yes, do whatever you'd like. My BMs wore silver shoes and I wore bright blue ones that were slightly different shade than their blue dresses. It was fine.

  • I'll be in ivory shoes while all of my BM will be in black shoes that they already own (or choose to buy), so no, don't worry about the shoes matching!
  • ah ok, the girls will be wearing a neutral shoe. I was just concerned my shoes would look odd- but noone will really see them unless I lift my dress up...
  • I'd say to go with silver or maybe a color that matches the sashes.  I would be afraid that trying to match the exact eggplant won't work.  Can't the bridal store dye them to match?
