My Shoes I think I want

I think I want these shoes for the ceremony and the first part of the reception....I think....I am stuck between wearing flats because I really love how tall my FI is (6'2 and I am 5'1 Laughing) Le sigh....

Re: My Shoes I think I want

  • Girl those shoes are H.O.T.!  I wish I could have chosen something like that.  All of the shoes I really loved were really high heels/platforms and I am just a hair shorter than FI without shoes, so I took it down a notch so I wouldn't be towering over him.  My heel is 3in, and I did end up with some shoes I really like, but my first choice was 4in Badgely Mischkas. 

    Yours look about 5in with a platform.  I say if you can rock them, do it!

  • These are 5.3 inch heel, 1.6 inch platform....I love Vince Camuto shoes and these right here...SHOEGASM for me...I usually wear high heels around my FI because once we were in Target and I was looking for him and vice versa for him and an older man said..."Sir your daughter is over there" He told me to stop being so short around him lol....

    Unitl I saw these I was really leaning towards wearing a flat shoe.....hmmm decisions and decisons!

  • They are real cute.

    This is me. I may be like 2-3 inches shorter than my FI and some depending on my shoes we are eye to eye. And when I wear heels I am taller than him so I say go ahead and rock them shoes because if I was short I would definitely be rocking them right along with you.
  • This is my dress...Maggie Sottero Adorae!


    I told FI I think I found my shoes and he was like....How much are they? I told him they werent over $160....now you all don't know how frugal my bae is...he asked me if they had coupons or if I could put them on layaway...BOY BYE!!

    For my wedding day attire I am trying to stay under $650. My dress rental is $350 the shoes are $139 plus tax/shipping, my parents are buying my wedding day jewelry and for my dress I am going to need to have cups added.....
  • Your dress is pretty and those shoes are HOOOOTTT..I say rock them  ! My babe is like your bae...always trying to find the cheap route on something lol...gotta love them !

  • Those are freaking fabuloso!!!! I'm such a shoe whore! I wish I could wear heels, I'm 5'10 and FI is 6ft...um no! I tower over him with heels! FI has no room in our closet for his crap because shoe boxes take over!!! LOL I told him, once we get the new house, he will have to build me a closet that has drawers, shelves, lots of built ins!!!!

  • Those are cute! My feet would be on FIRE LOL

     

  • Thanks everyone...I just called Vince Camuto customer service and the shoe has a peep toe...problem...my feet are narrow and when I wear peep toes my feet slide and my toes look like boudin coming out the casing (gross I know...) But I am going to probably order them and walk around the house in them to see how they feel and if not then...back they go....so I will search for more just in case!

  • I agree with PP, if you can do it, do it. Now, I think thos eboys would be off before I got to the reception , but hey, those are HOT!

  • Girl those shoes are HOT!!! You have to find a way to get them to work! And don't worry, your height difference will still be noticeable!!
