Le bridal shoe

Bridal theme is a central one in my life, currently. I commit to objectivity and fairness and promise to treat other fascinating topics soon ( I still have to publish the list of my cosmetics products of the year!), but once in a while, at least in the upcoming 2-3 months, you will hear about the accessories and decoration ideas I come across while preparing for my own big day. Today’s subject – the absolutely under-appreciated, under-treated, under-stated and under-presented – le bridal shoe.  Ordinarily hidden under the long skirt of the bridal gown, it is often neglected and most commonly overruled by hair accessories, jewelry and floral accompaniments.
Evidence suggests, however, that the bridal shoe can represent a hidden talent of the outfit, perfectly matching with elements of the color concept of the wedding party. The bridal shoe can serve a perfect complement of the bride’s bouquet; it can restate the color of the bridesmaids’ dresses or match with the groom’s tie. Above all, the bridal shoe need not be white – fuchsia, blue and green can be a refreshing and surprising alternative! Imagine getting an improvised glimpse of a bright shoe from a perfectly classic wedding gown! Aaaahhh..

Here a collection of the ones I have found lately. Maybe an inspiration for one of the ladies?
