    What kind of shoes are you looking for? I found mine on heels.com. I was looking for eggplant colored shoes and found perfect ones on there.

    I actually found mine at Nine West in the Woodfield Mall!  I knew I wanted blue shoes and they had THE perfect shoes..had to get them!

    It's time. Adoption saving and process started in November 2012.

    Ditto Zappos.

    I looked everywhere.  Everywhere.  Nine West, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Aerosoles, Von Maur, Carson's, Lord and Taylor, J.Crew, Ann Taylor, DSW, bridal boutiques, you name it. 

    Finally, I browsed through Zappos again, randomly clicked on an on-sale, $39 pair of shoes, and bought them, thinking that I could at least return them for free.  And I love them!  Go figure.

    DSW! But later found them on 6PM.com for REALLY cheap but they were not in my size :/

    Famous Footwear I believe? Though Target had similar shoes for less so I wish I had bought them there. But I wanted flats since DH and I are the same height.

    Cole Haan website.

    I found my shoes before I was even engaged in spring 2009.  I saw them at Vonmaur and jokingly said to my sister "those are going to be my wedding shoes".  Then I got engaged aug 2009 and in Jan. 2010 after I had my dress I decided I really did want them to be my wedding shoes.  By that time, there were on sale on Cole Haan's website (and surprisingly not at Vonmaur), so I ordered them directly.

    I like this website since it is integrated with another sister shoe site:  bridalshoes.com

    By far the best selection I saw online....good luck!

    I got mine at VonMaur, but then I saw them later on Zappos as well. I highly recommend Zappos, you can have them shipped, try them on and exchange them very easily, up to a year later. Their customer service is awesome, I order through them a lot.

    These are my shoes:

    Just FYI, it's the same for Vonmaur.  They're return policy is excellent as is their CS. (Ha, sorry, I'm a VM lover!)

    i'm looking for a champaign or soft gold heel. I'd rather not spend more than $50 and if i could find something i could wear again (why not, right?) that would be great....


    i've basically googled "wedding shoes" and went from there. i have checked out zappos and dsw as well as bridalshoes.com. i'll keep an eye on zappos and will check out the webistes everyone has listed. so far i'm liking these but they of course are out of my size. ugh!

    thanks for all your help!!!!! you ladies are fabulous!

    I wouldn't look for birdal or wedding shoes then...mine weren't and I've worn then post-wedding.

    I actually wore these  in plain gold (BCBGirls Ariel) for our RH dinner and I've worn them so much after that I decided to get a second pair in a different color (actually I found the 2nd pair for $25 at Marshalls, you could look around and just maybe?)

    They're pretty much identical to what you posted; but I'm not familiar with that brand.  I'd recommend paying the extra $10 to get a well-known brand that is hopefully more comfy for you!

    I found mine on DSW.com.  I had tried on this Audrey Brooke designer/brand at a DSW.  They had an extra padding under the ball of your foot and came in wide widths.  I didn't like the styles in store so I looked online.  They have some gorgeous super comfy ones online.  AND with my DSW rewards I ended up getting them even cheaper than they already were.

    I also wore them all night to a wedding this weekend.  They were that comfortable considering the heel size.  I wore them all day and night on my wedding too.

    Try either codes 445, 455, or 220.

    These were coupon codes I had, never used, and then they expired at the end of August.

    Payless has a similar pair (link) on sale for $25 + $6 shipping. I bought a different pair from this same line and they're actually pretty comfortable.

    Try Zappos or event Loehmann's - My sister found a pair of Badgley Mishka's at Loehmann's that were gorgeous for $80!
