I confess today all I can think about are weddings, and shoes of course, so to match the bride’s pumps I found a pair of perfect bridesmaid’s shoes as well. The Nina Electra Platform Pumps are pretty popular this wedding season, and I can see why they would be the perfect bridesmaid shoes. The Nina pumps come in wide variety of colors (of which the bride can wear white or ivory), so they are a natural choice for their versatility in matching with the wedding colors and bridesmaid’s dresses. They aren’t too flashy either and would look great in a wedding photos. So if you’re stuck in a rut looking for shoes for your bridesmaids, these Nina pumps might work for you.

On the flip side from the Kate Spade Mattie I introduced to you before, the Nina Electra is a perfect bride’s shoe for those of you looking for height (cough..like myself). Plus, as Nina’s are known for..you’ll get comfort AND height with the Electra. This pump for the bride is demure with the soft bow detail and overlapping pleats that offset the thin ankle strap. The Electra will go perfectly with a long or short wedding gown. Oh and BTW, did you see the metallic gold underlining of the shoe, I love that detail – makes it slightly more exciting.

For the many galas, benefits, and balls you will be attending this season you will need an equally fabulous shoe (with a fabulous price tag).  Behold, the Nina ‘Blin’ Pump.  Before you tell me the shape is unoriginal and the color is nothing new, take a closer look at the strap.  I love the layering of different textures.  The style is classic, which will go with almost anything and the color has a certain elegance to it.  Besides its ability to be completely timeless this pump has a modern twist. The variation of textures adds designer depth (ability to create something new out of something ordinary).  The snakeskin adds edginess, while the satin in between softens it.  Great for any special occasion!

Nine West Falcoin – satin is always a lovely way to keep things elegant. Go for detail (like the pleating in this Falcoin) and bright colors to also add your own flavor.

Charles by Charles David – Tyrst: stylish and traditional. Subtle lizard prints like this Tyrst sandal is great and the twist makes the show modern.

Nina Vikki – great for a wedding that goes into the evening because of the color, while still keeping your feet cool in the summer.

Bridesmaid shoe tips: you don’t have to be “matchy matchy” with your dress. Contrasting colors will go great with the popular single tone bold colors that are being used for many dresses today. Look for comfort as well. Only wear a shoe with a heel height, and constructed in a way, that you know you will be comfortable in the entire day- no matter how fabulous the shoe is. Comfort is key, you don’t want to be wincing in pictures. You can mix things up with different colors, prints, materials and straps. Also, it doesn’t hurt to suggest having all the bridesmaid’s getting the same shoe in a variety of colors. Makes for nicer pictures, and we all know how important pictures are.

Nona                          Kimi                             Genevieve

These are great shoes for any Bride and any type of gown.  The Nona is the perfect traditional shoe that will complement a structured gown made of a stiffer satin type of material and look great with any body type.  The Kimi is great to play up a more simple gown and give the entire look a hip and trendy updated look.  The staight lines of the t-strap also help it to go great with the flowy and the structured gown as well.  And lastly the Genevieve is a great delicate looking shoe to soften the look of any dress and bride that is elegant and detailed enough without a ton of embellishment to go beautifully with just about anything and anyone.

Simple hints:  When choosing a shoe to go with your wedding gown, think of the the style, material, and length of your gown (so how much of the shoe will actually show up in the pictures).  If it is a simple gown then mix things up with detailed and accented shoe.  If it’s a gown that is made of a brocade or stiff satin with a lot of embellishment, try to go with something more simple.  And if the gown is very delicate and erethreal then it’s a good idea to stay with that same theme and get a shoe that has the same feel to make everything cohesive. And above all, keep in mind that you’ll be wearing these shoes for a while. Make sure you walk around in the shoe for several hours at home before making a decision.  It definitely doesn’t make for a great Kodak moment if you are limping the first dance with your new husband.
