One of the biggest trends in the wedding world, and one that I'm absolutely in LOVE with, is for the bride to wear colored shoes to match her color scheme. Now I know that your great aunt Edna is rolling over in her grave as we speak, but really, who made the rule that dictated the bride must be in white from head to toe? Actually, I do more or less know the answer to that, and maybe I'll post a blog about it sometime. But anyway, first brides started carrying colored flowers which I LOVE as well. There is something about the contrast of the pure white dress and the colorful flowers that just pops for me. And now whenever the bride lifts her dress up a little, which trust me she'll be doing ALL DAY LONG, there is a surprise pop of color! Don't believe me, judge for yourself!

What a concept!!! Because really, even those of us who get more practical shoes and convinced our finances that they were worth the price because, and I quote, we'll "totally wear them all the time!!!"... who actually wears pure white shoes anymore? My pure white ones are still in the closet, right were I put them when we came home the day after the wedding.
So... what do you think? Are you as in love as I am?
I LOVE that idea!!!! No more boring white shoes for the Bride!! This is pure genius!
