    What color shoes will go with my bridesmaids dresses (http://www.billlevkoff.com/style/bridesmaid-dress/579 in wine)? I was honestly going to suggest whatever they want because they will probably be covered, but they want direction!

    I am looking for gray cardigans to purchase them as gifts...

    Why not just black shoes? If everyone wants the same style or similar styles, tell them to get strappy low heels or t-straps or cute flats. As long as they are comfortable (no one wants a table full of bridesmaids sitting around because their feet hurt too much to dance).

    My wedding colors are burgundy, light gray and white with touches of black...comfort is definitely important!

    My bridesmaids wore bill levkoff in the wine color as well.  I let them pick out their own shoes, and three of them wore their favorite black heels and two of the girls wore cute nude heels. No one noticed, and everyone was comfy :)

    metallics?

    What are your other colors? Black is a safe choice, as it silver od nude... or something really quirky like a zebra print?

    I think that a charcoal color would be nice.  Our bridal party is wearing wine color as well, and they're all wearing black shoes.  I figured it would be easiest to find a comfortable/re-wearable pair of black shoes.

    My BMs all had wine colored dresses too, and I gave them the freedom to choose whatever shoes they wanted. They all agreed on black shoes since they already owned a pair of comfortable ones and could re-wear them again. So black would be a good, versatile choice. I think with your dresses, there's a lot of flexibility since it's floor length as well!

    You can't go wrong with nude.

    Our girls are wearing Bill levkoff long wine dresses style 678...  I agree, shoes are not as imporant but we went with gold, mainly because our colors are kind of fallish, and our boquets are orange and wine...  But I definitely think you could do nude, silver, black or even chocolate brown with them....

    @littlecat:hi! I don't mean to be a creep... but it kinda sounds like your colors are like ours (next October)...

    DId you go with all metalics, or a wine color and another color? I'm really floundering on this

    We're having wine colored BM dresses too... We're going with silver or light gray shoes. I'm not too picky about them matching since they are floor length dresses.
