Biviel BV1208 - Flats are a great option for comfort and if you happen to be taller, they can also be dressed up or down.

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.

Sara was feeling a bit too inactive so she wanted to say “Hello” with her Coloriffics sandal. And so, I’m also saying..”hello again” with this Nine West ‘Jojus’ pump. Yes, the ‘Jojus’ pump, definitely seems a bit wild and crazy for a Mother – especially when I mentioned in my earlier post that I wanted to keep things age-appropriate. But Mothers, trust me on this and don’t write-off these shoes quite yet. This shoe is for the super trendy fashionista in all of you willing to wear a 3” heel. The tan and blue in the Jojus tone the shoe down (hence age-appropriate), while the other colors keep things lively and make it so that it will match with any color outfit. In all honesty, I’m not normally the biggest fan of army fatigue type prints. However, it works for this shoe to integrate all the colors together, because you don’t really notice it unless you’re holding the shoe up close to you face or critiquing it like I did. I also really like the soft fabric of the shoe’s interlocking open strap at the top. It nicely complements the party of colors and adds to the comfort of the shoe. The Jojus won’t work with the very formal wedding outfits, but it will definitely complete an outfit for a more casual wedding. Try it out, I dare ya.

I like pleats and nice little details, that’s why when I saw the Nine West “Falcoin” sandal I knew it had to be included as a top Bridesmaid shoe pick. The satin brings out a nice sheen to the shoe without looking over the top and brings out different shades of the shoe color that come from the contrasting pleats at the peep-toe. If you want to keep it low key without being dull, the Falcoin looks stunning in the muted colors available. But, these shoes also come in loads of great colors; it’s like Skittles for your feet! So if you want to make a statement, the detail of the shoe and the bright colors like orange, green, or yellow available would be a great complement to the rich bold colors used for simply cut dresses that are popping up all over the place. Plus, with the variety of colors, the bride is sure to find a color that all her bridesmaids will love.

This was the year for platform pumps and now that we are entering spring and summer it’s time for the platform sandals. I really like the natural colors that complement the wood effect on the heel. The slight metallic material on the straps is going to look great with a dress or skirt, just giving it enough pop to stand out.

So think jet setter meets dominatrix. I’m not quite sure how to feel looking at a sandal like this. I posted it in white because I think it looks more like a high fashion shoe rather than something I would find in one of those ’special’ love stores (wink wink). I think the right women could pull these off, she would have to dress very trendy and have long slender legs. With the right dress these shoes could look killer, however one veer to the right and it could go horribly wrong. So if you know you can pull these off more power to you!

I seriously have fallen in love with these rain boots. In my mind these are the cutest rain boots I have ever seen. The understated polka dots are not in your face because of the color scheme. I am really into the gray and grayish blue dots, I think this would go great with everything and definitely be a perfect addition to any wardrobe. Even the nine west logo done in a silver metal looks chic. I highly recommend this rain boot! Also don’t forget to check out the other colors and patterns.
