    My mom's kinda killing me with this request.  She's on the hunt for floral print flats to go with her clover-green dress.

    I really can't stress how much this HAS to be a flat.  No heel whatsoever.  A lot of what I've been finding is a little too casual...she's wearing a floor length satin dress, so they've gotta be dressy.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    P.S. This is the type of pattern she's looking for.

    J.Crew has several floral pattern flats, but they might not be dressy enough for her.

    I've seen a lot of floral printed shoes in style now, but finding a DRESSY one may be a challenge. What size is your mom's shoe?

    I'll poke around...those are some tough requirements. Is she willing to bend on the floral print at all? There are so many bejeweld designs out there.

    @MissOlive: I saw those, but there's not really much with any green in them.  Thanks though!

    @PrincessDiva: Saw those too, but considering my mom only paid $100, for her dress, I doubt she's going to spring for $250 shoes ;o)

    @EJS: I just told her I'd be on the lookout.  If she can't find ANYTHING, she's just going to get the DB dyeable flats in the color of her dress.  She's a size 8-8.5.

    @EJS: She already said no to those.  I told you she's being a bit of a pain ;o)

    Boo. They should make those kids' flats in adult sizes. I'd imagine lots of bridesmaids would want those!

    @julies: Can you link to those first ones?  I can't find them online.

    I loveee the second ones but they are not in her size.  I am going to start stalking them though.  Thanks :o)

    I took the liberty of emailing Alternative Outfitters re the green print shoes. Unfortunately here is their response:

     Hi Julie,

     Unfortunately we won’t be getting anymore of that shoe. It is an older style from a couple years ago and the manufacturer is no longer making them. Sorry about that!

     Best Regards,

     Alternative Outfitters

    Good luck with helping your mom find her shoes.

    ps I think they do have them in the pink floral print

    What size shoe does she wear?  If she wears a size 6 or below she can wear kids shoes (Size 6 would be a kids size 4)
