Nona                          Kimi                             Genevieve

These are great shoes for any Bride and any type of gown.  The Nona is the perfect traditional shoe that will complement a structured gown made of a stiffer satin type of material and look great with any body type.  The Kimi is great to play up a more simple gown and give the entire look a hip and trendy updated look.  The staight lines of the t-strap also help it to go great with the flowy and the structured gown as well.  And lastly the Genevieve is a great delicate looking shoe to soften the look of any dress and bride that is elegant and detailed enough without a ton of embellishment to go beautifully with just about anything and anyone.

Simple hints:  When choosing a shoe to go with your wedding gown, think of the the style, material, and length of your gown (so how much of the shoe will actually show up in the pictures).  If it is a simple gown then mix things up with detailed and accented shoe.  If it’s a gown that is made of a brocade or stiff satin with a lot of embellishment, try to go with something more simple.  And if the gown is very delicate and erethreal then it’s a good idea to stay with that same theme and get a shoe that has the same feel to make everything cohesive. And above all, keep in mind that you’ll be wearing these shoes for a while. Make sure you walk around in the shoe for several hours at home before making a decision.  It definitely doesn’t make for a great Kodak moment if you are limping the first dance with your new husband.

I LOVE these shoes by Kate Spade! Paired with a more free flowing bridal gown, these delicate Kate Spade Genevieve’s will complete your entire wedding look. Not only will the Ivory color look great with your dress, but because it’s strappy the white isn’t overwhelming. This means these can be worn on other occasions than just your wedding day. The heel isn’t too high to give you sore feet. Also, not only are the straps arranged in a very original and cute way, it’s also wonderful because it keeps those toes where they belong – no chance for spillage here! And lastly, the thin little ankle straps adds just a touch of sexiness while keeping your ankles in place to help you dance into the night.

The ‘Lucinda’ sandal can be used from day to night (always a plus in my book) with it’s classy strap work to the lightly padded sole. This wonderfully versatile sandal is kind of like a destination shoe, wear it in the Bahamas with your flowy dress and big hat then hop on a plane to San Francisco and walk the Haight district.
