Funky shoes? Sandals?

appleb

Hi, I am getting married in July and am wearing a tea length dress (Ballerina kinda length!). Dress is kinda 50's style. I do not want to wear traditional brides shoes. I am looking for something a little different. I own lots of irregular choice shoes but cannot see anything at the mo that inspires me. Bridesmaid is in red, by the way (if that helps?). Thinking of peep toes style maybe. Any suggestions??

Twee.

What about Vivienne Westwood for Melissa? I have two pairs and they're mega comfortable, as well as being awesome!

Asos have these

If your bridesmaid dresses are red, how about something like these Ted Baker shoes? You'd just have to be sure they were the same red...

There's a good few ideas on this pinterest:

These wouldn't go at all with your dress, but I need to post them because I saw them and thought they were the funkiest shoes I've seen in ages. http://ie1.schuh.co.uk/images/product/115700/1157001060m3_main.jpg

These are nice, but not particularly funky:

Or if you want to go with the red there's some nice stuff on rocket dog:

If you wanted to be really different, you could wear black shoes:

God, I'm going to have to find a fiancé now because I'm so excited about wedding shoes.

How about going designer? Might not be very funky, but you can justify the expense

Jimmy Choo red leather patent peep toes (spotted on Net-A-Porter)



Here's a funkier pair from Charlotte Olympia

love this idea, design your own bespoke shoes for your wedding day!
Only just discovered the site but it looks class, you choose heel height and exactly what style of peep toe, embellishments etc, and a money back guarantee if you don't like them!
Racking my brain for an excuse to design my own pair now!

Edit: hmm very expensive and not as individual as I first thought! 250-350 euro and fairly basic stuff, although compared to Rainbow Club and the usual bridal shoe suspects there's a great selection of heel heights etc and a good selection of bridal type fabrics and leathers, I'd say this would be more suited to someone who just can't get formal shoes to fit properly as they seem to do different widths and you can send them back for adjustments etc. Seemed like a great idea at the time, ah well!
