This is a great season for comfortable stylish shoes. Pointy toes are less common, and rounded toes are back in style. White flats are certainly available from bridal shoe designers, but there are so many fun designs available this season from non-bridal designers, that you might wish to consider branching out from white. A sparkly pair of silver flats would look fabulous on the bride who is wearing a silver embellished gown and crystal bridal jewelry. If you just can't picture yourself walking down the aisle without some kind of high heeled shoe, take advantage of this season's platform trend. With a nod to the 1940s, the current crop of platforms are ladylike, not exaggerated, and have tall but sturdy heels. There are some gorgeous styles available in luxe wedding-worthy fabrics, such as satin platform heels with ankle straps and a twisted knot detail at the toe.For the bride who likes very delicate footwear, a pair of kitten heel shoes might be the answer. The heels are thin, but also low, which makes them more comfortable. Be sure that the shoes have a strap, rather than an open back mule style, which is too easy to step out of when backing up. Many of the kitten heel shoes are made in strappy sandal designs which are very feminine and pretty. Classic white or ivory would certainly work, but you may also want to think about a soft color or metallic. Ballet pink, silver, or bronze would all be gorgeous choices with a bridal gown, and will be more useful after the wedding. This same shoe in metallic or black works great for bridesmaids.
