Any shoe experts out there? I need help.

[LoraJ]

I am going to a wedding next week. First they will be in a church, and then they will have a ceremony on the beach. None of my dresses seem to fit right anymore, so I searched around for something practical for this occassion and decided on this:

But, I don't have any shoes to go with it. I don't think I'll have a chance to go shopping before the wedding so I am hoping to find something online that can be shipped to my house by Weds.

Any shoe lovers out there have any good suggestions on a good online source for shoes. Have any suggestions to match the dress? I prefer low heels or flats.

Thanks in advance.

I have no idea actually. Maybe barefoot it. There will be a reception at the hotel where the beach is. I'm sure there will be hours of dancing.

I'm not an expert, but I know that others are. That dress really calls for some sexy strappy shoes, but that wouldn't work at the beach or for dancing forever.
I'd find out more before choosing.

No shoe would work at the beach. It's really hard to walk in the sand wearing shoes, not to mention then sand would get inside. I would wear strappy heels and just slip them off at the beach, then slip then right back on.

how about a pair of strappy sandals?

Strappy sandals it is.

But what color?

Here are two good shoe sites: www.shoebuy.com and www.shoe.com.

I would try to match the rose color in the dress.

Zappos is really fast, and very reputable, they have customer reviews for most of the shoes they sell. Great site!

Love the dress!

Thanks so much for the suggestions and links. I really love the Athena Alexander ´Song´ Sandals.

When the today show had a wedding at the beach the designer put the BRIDE in flip flops.

You may want to consider getting a real or fake tan on your legs so you don't have to worry about hose and taking a pair of fancy flip flops for the beach portion. You could park your real shoes somewhere nearby and come back for them for the reception.

I think that the dress you picked is very pretty ~~ wedding~ee if you know what I mean by that! I attended a wedding at the beach last year where all the bridal party wore gowns and tuxes but had on flip flops! The girls had glued some rhinestone beads to theirs. They looked very pretty and it was appropriate because of the setting. I actually loved the setting, with the crashing waves behind them, the sunny blue skies, the diamond look to the sand.

I think you should wear a mule with that dress. Not a flat, but a kitten heel. A mule would be so easy to slip on and off. On your dress website I saw a beige pair on the first page of shoes that I thought looked good and on the second page there was a pale pink ruched pair that may be right for you.

Very pretty dress!! I love it. And I agree with a mule suggestion. I like this mule at newport : http://www.newport-news.com/shop/Pr...6&productindex=7&firstpagetypeid=&pageindex=0
