Like many SATC fans I drooled over Manolo Blahnik’s “Something Blue” shoes which were feature in the SATC Movie. But my budget doesn’t allow for $945 shoes (yeah that’s not a typo…) So I had to go for a different something blue. I needed something with a shorter heel because me and FH are almost the same height, and I don’t want to be hunching all day. So I did a search on the internet (thank you to the bees who gave me sites to look at!!!) and I came up with these.
Annie Lola in Royal Blue satin on zappos.com. They are PERFECT! I have wide feet, so I needed a W size and they had it! I love the jewels on them and of course — They’re in SAPPHIRE! LOL!! How could I not love them!

I so want to have blue shoes too, but I need a light blue, with just a little kitten heel or no heel at all. Those are awesome tho!

I’m having the hardest time finding what I’m looking for when it comes to shoes. I need wedges for the height, but I can’t have regular heels because our cereemony is going to be in grass. I’m looking for yellow or light green. I love the luichiny sienna ones that Mrs. Bee posted about, but by the time I headed over to Amazon they didn’t have my size! My something blue will probably be painting my toenails or something. *shrug* Not one of my biggest worries!

@kirsten44: They are very comfortable! No pinching since they are a W size. And the short heel means the balls of my feet won’t be hurting at the end of the day.
@mandalynn17: The was posted in another thread (which is where I got the idea): they make these things for your heels which keep them from sinking into the grass!! I plan on buying a pair since my wedding is outdoors on grass too! I’ll take them off when we go inside for the reception.

My something blue will be my shoes too. Probably. They are in a little bit of an unexpected way though…
I guess you can get away with it when you are getting married on a dude ranch.
