Hi girls, while out shopping today I bought these shoes. They are very beautiful, just my style, very me, and VERY comfortable. Only thing is that they are ivory (only come in ivory or black) and my dress is diamond white, so they don't match perfectly. They are slightly a shade off from the color of my dress, but maybe I could dye them whiter if anything. Or I could return them (I have 90 days). Also, I'm a little skeptical because the rhinestones on the shoe have a goldish color, and the stones on my DOJ (which I have already) are whitish and silver. Is that bad? I mean if anything, my wedding colors are burgundy, champagne, gold, and choc brown.
Please help me! Here are the pics of my gear:
edit: Ok survey sayyyyys: Return them!! Thank you ladies, you're the bestest!!!!
i think the shoes are gorgeous!!! i think you can get away with the color, but i also think that it may start to bother you that they dont match perfectly
are you sure they can be dyed whiter? its usually works so that you can only dye darker i thought

OOohh I don't know! I asked at 2 stores and they said I could dye them whiter. I hope they didn't lie! I love the shoes but I'm so particular and I know it will bother me if they don't match perfectly. But maybe I'm being too crazy

i saw those shoes and a few other badgely shoes at my glass slipper and I didnt buy them because the detail on my dress is silver, and it didn't match the shoes. I think the shoes are gorgeous, but don't force them to work if they do not. Maybe you can buy and wear to the RD?
I also thought you could only dye darker, not lighter.

Personally the fact that the detail is goldish and your jewelry is silver would bother me more than ivory/diamond white. I voted keep them unless you find something better. I know how hard it is to find shoes!

Ehhh you are prob right. Maybe I will exchange for the black since I love them so much and keep on looking. Interesting that so far 2 people say you can only dye darker, when today no one told me this when I was out. Awesome!!

gorgeous shoes, but i agree with the other girls... the silver v. gold would bother me. you should check stuart weitzman. he has a lot of gorgeous shoes with pretty crystals.

i dont think that you can dye them. there is too much detail along the peep toe. IMHO I would get bothered with the gold/silver issue

I had the same problem with a pair of shoes that I bought and they werent white enough - they told me you can only dye darker - so I dyed them black and bt a new pair ..
If it were me though - it would bother me that my DOJ is silver and the detail on the shoe is gold .. JMO :)
