    I'm really hoping to get some help with some shoe ideas. I don't know where to start! I hate shopping for shoes...there are just so darn many. So if anyone would like to help me out I would appreciate it.

    I'm wearing a Melissa Sweet Camilla and I'm having a destination wedding on St. John, USVI. My fi is 6'4" and I'm 5'7" so I'd like around a 4" heel. I know what I like I'm just not sure what style shoe will look good with my dress. As far as color I'm thinking maybe pink to go with bouquet 1 or blue to go with bouquet 2. Also, I love that aqua colored cloth (have to click on attachment)...

    Hmmm... What about something like these Christian Louboutins:

    Do they think that have too much "foo-foo" (for a lack of a better word) for your style of dress? BTW  ~ Your dress is amazing!

     

    I posted some of my top picks here although I don't think all of them will flow with your style of dress.
    I think you are going to need something soft and elegant with your gorgeous dress

    I'm posting all of these pumps ~ but I'm wondering if a strappy sandal look might be better? What do you think?

    These sort of match the satiny feel of your dress, but they're nice and open for the destination vibe.

    I totally stole both your flower inspirations, though. I want blush/cream flowers, too, and those are beautiful!

    I posted some of my favorites here[link removed]. Most of my picks are purple/red, but they almost all come in pink! Good luck!

    aqierman I think a strappy shoe might look better as well but not sure.

    Amaryllis I like the look of those shoes but not the metallic color. I'm also very flattered that you like my flower inspirations. They first bouquet contains some of my very favorite garden roses!

    Lairdea I love all of those shoes but I'm not crazy about closed toed. I wish I had found those silver one's for my new year's eve out fit...I love them!

    I would definitely go with strappy sandals. Do you definitely want a colored shoe? If not, you could get some gorgeous strappy sandals in a neutral color from DSW. They should have a great selection right now.

    Yeah I definitely think strappy sandals would look best. I don't have to have a colored shoe but I think I would like to have a splash of color.  I did go to DSW today and found a great pair of shoes...but they aren't for my wedding. They are the perfect bm shoes though! Thought I'd share...

    They look fantastic on!

    Ok I definitely want something light pink/blush colored. A sandal type heel will probably work the best too. I really love those louboutins but I still think they might be a little to much...so maybe something very similar to that. Any one know of any shoes like that please let me know!

    Alright after 2 hours scouring the internet what do you think of these? Similar to the louboutins...are they still to much?
