Should I buy the shoe?

BlissPhilly · March 2012

Having the wedding shoes I want in my siggy is not helping my "Shopping Issues". What do you guys think? Should I buy it now or wait until I'm closer to my wedding? "Right now" everything is perfect about the shoe to me (heel height, color, style, price), but what if I buy it and then come across another shoe later I like better or what if I don't buy it, wait and not come across another shoe I like as much as these and then these are sold out? Uuuggghhh decisions...HELP!
Here it is up close:

I would wait until you are within the return period. So, I ordered mine online from a place with 365 day return so if I changed my mind they could go back.

That was smart...I don't want to be one of those Brides that have 3 pairs of "wedding shoes" by the time of their wedding...LOL...I've been trying to figure out another time I could wear them so it wouldn't seem like a "waste" if I found another shoe I liked better...but I don't wear white shoes

I vote wait unless you are 100% sure about them.

I would definitely agree to wait until you're within the return period! SO many new shoes could come out between now and next September. The shoes in your siggy are really pretty, but not so unique that if they sold out, you couldn't find something pretty similar, IMO.

<div>Great advice!</div><div>
</div><div>I broke my foot about 6 months before the wedding and couldn't wear heels. You never know what will happen. </div><div>I also bought another pair of flats a year before I broke my foot, but they were too stiff after the broken foot so I couldn't wear them either. </div>

Great Points Ladies Thanks!

I bought a few things a year and a half out that we are now not using at all. Athough my shoes are not one of them, lol. I bought the shoes in March 2011 for my June 2012 wedding. I still love them. Unless you think the price of the shoes are going to increase drastically, I would wait.

Do you have your dress yet? If not I would DEF wait on the shoes.. you never know they may not look right with the dress!

OMG! I just realized the shoe has a "bow" like the bow on my dress near my left arm pit..Do you guys see it???

jessa1228 · March 2012

I see it! Also I know I told you this before but I LOVE your dress.

I'm in the "buy now" camp. You never know if the shoes are going to be discontinued or not.

<div>I tend to lean this way too, just because if I had waited much longer to buy my shoes I wouldn't have been able to get them as my size has been out of stock for quite some time now. Worst case scenario, you can always sell them on the classified section or on craigslist. :)</div>
