Buckled bridal shoes
This week's shoe gazing post is all about buckled wedding shoes.
Buckled heels, buckled boots, buckled flats. White, red, pink, silver, gold. Big heels, little heels, no heels, platforms ... I tried to get a little bit of everything, always imagining how great they would look both peeking out from under a relatively traditional white gown, or as a show piece with tea length dress in some daring color. I tried to get a range of splurgeyness, too — from $60 to $600.
As usual, I like my shoes loud and your tastes may vary. But if you're looking for buckles, ladies, I got you covered...

OMG Ariel. I love you, but these shoe posts are killing me. Every time you post one I can feel my credit card hand getting itchy. I'm not even a really a shoe person! I just kinda go into "PRETTY! OMG WANT!" mode.

Me too. I am not a shopper. I have like 6 pair of shoes and I wear them until they get holes in the soles and then I begrudgingly buy a new replacement pair. But omfg I need those fushia suede rose on the toes shoes, except I think I need them in grey. Ariel what have you done!

And of course the pair I love is $600… oh well. It's not like they'd match our wedding colors anyway. I'm finding it much more difficult to relatively flat shoes to go with my dress but I love these shoe posts! I can just see all the different options with my dress. It's awesome.

I'm not usually big into buckles, but man…. some of those shoes are just too awesome to care whether they have buckles or not!
