    Hi Bees! I need your help! I don't know which shoes I should go with...I know that I want blue shoes. The wedding is peacock themed (blue and green with touches of feathers).  I want to keep the with theme, but sometimes I don't know if I am being too literal or if I'm just keeping in line with the theme.

    There is one pair that is white, but if I went with those, they would be dyed blue. 

    I have attached a picture of my dress in hopes that you might help me decide what would work best!

    I appreciate your help, bees!!

    Beautiful dress! I'm not really fan of any (kind of feel like they're all just a little too over the top), but if I had to choose I would go with the peacock feather slingback.

    I agree with the PP - they're all a little over the top for me, but if I had to choose I'd go with the t-strap ones.

    You could check out etsy - I bet there's some great peacock themed shoes there.

    I think any of the shoes would be fine, people will not see your shoes a ton anyways so you might as well have fun with it. I am voting for the peacock ones, but I love the little veil on the other pair of shoes! I think if it just had that I would vote for it.

    Those are a collection of statement shoes for sure.  Your dress is pretty!

    I would pick the ivory shoes or the peacock shoes in the 2nd from last photo.  The blue feathered ankle strapped shoes are the most likely to compete with your dress.

    I voted for the peacock pumps, but the white ones that would be dyed blue were a close second for me. Very cute! (Side note: you're lucky you can wear heels that high...I would kill myself! I have a strict 2.5 inch limit, haha)

    The peacock ones are pretty but I don't like the embellishment on the heel, it just seems like too much.

    So my favorites are the white ones (dyed blue) and the first ones with embellishment all over.

    All of the shoes are lovely but most are not the right shade of blue to match your peacock theme, IMO.  The only pair that is the right shade of blue are the peacock painted shoes and I agree with @kala_way:  The embelleshment on the heels is overkill.  

    Definitely not the feather, tulle, netting, crystal, beaded shoes.  There is tooooooooo much going on with those shoes!  If you wear those, people will be looking at and talking about your shoes instead of your beautiful dress!  I think those shoes are made to be worn with a plain and simple dress/outfit.

    I have simpler tastesm so I would say less is more - not many people will see them under the dress anyway which is a shame if you are going to spend a lot on them :)
