A Shoe Dilemma
By Natalie on January 8, 2009 in PlanningAnyone that knows me well knows that I have an obsession with crazy shoes, a style only my sister-in-law can relate to. I own a plethora of shoes, shoved into any empty corner of our closet, of which my fiance can use against me when I try to buy a new pair. I sneak in a few pairs every now and then and purposely wait a few weeks before I decide to wear them hoping that he won’t remember. It doesn’t work very well.
Anyway, that was more of a rant.
I really wish that I could have translated my normal shoe fetish into a wedding style that would satisfy me, but these are the few cases that I must pick comfort over style. I have decided against stilettos and will be wearing flats. This will help me walk easier on grass and down steps. I assume that I would be nervous enough walking down the aisle, I don’t want to worry about sinking into the ground while walking. Besides, noone will see my shoes anyway beneath the dress.
I want to wear purple flats, but I can’t find any for the life of me!
Has anyone seen any cute ones anywhere?

I to am going purple for my wedding this fall and am faced with your same problems….SHOES! I have yet to find the perfect pair that will accomodate all my wants and yes needs. URGH!!! I hope you find your perfect pair!
good luck tryin to find purple shoes. have you tried looking into another color like silver or white?
Sorry to butt in - I found your page on the knot, and I think I may be able to help! I actually found a really adorable pair of Elle (brand) purple flats at Kohl’s on sale last month - they were only about $40 and they’re super-cute. I say look NOW, ‘cuz they’re about to start bringing in the spring colors and purple was really popular for fall and winter this year! Good luck! :0)
Not sure if these will work with your dress…
