Opinions Please - Bridal Shoe

I have decided on a closed toe shoe vs. an open toe and since FH is not much taller than me, I am limited to the heel height I can choose.

Not sure if this will affect your opinion, but my dress has clear and white beading embroidered on the bottom of the skirt and slightly coming up the middle front, like you see on a typical traditional ballgown.

Which of these shoes do you like best, and why?

The 1st pair is 2' high and the other 2 are 2 1/2' high.

Thanks!



ETA: Do you think any of them look grandma-ish?

Re: Opinions Please - Bridal Shoe

I love the simplicity of #1, and besides that, the buckle adds a nice simple touch!

Re: Opinions Please - Bridal Shoe

#1 is classy =)

eta: I have a hard time wearing sling backs... they ALWAYS fall of of me, even if I order a 1/2 size smaller. You may want to try some on in person and walk around a little bit before you order.

I ended up buying a shoe with an ankle strap.

Re: Opinions Please - Bridal Shoe

I would go with either #1 or #2

I like the simplicity of #1 - it won't compete with the beading on your skirt.

I love the look of #2 - it's still simple but has a little bit more style to it.

i agree sling backs are tricky.. they are all very nice.. i like #1 & 2.. but i would try them on before to make sure they dont slip off!

Re: Opinions Please - Bridal Shoe

They're all pretty but #1 is a lil too plain, JMO
I like 2 and 3, but #2 the best.
