WARNING: Wedding Shoe Envy Ahead

February 23rd, 2012, by Azure

Yesterday we blogged about the drop dead gorgeous engagement rings by Diamond in the Rough. And today, it's all about shoes! The Bridal Collection by Jimmy Choo is a shoe girl's dream come true, and a budget bride's worst nightmare. With prices in the $500 to $1500 range, these drool-worthy kicks cost a pretty penny. But they're just SO gorgeous! Sky high heels, gold & silver sparkle for days, vibrant strappy sandals and crystal-encrusted heels... I'm convinced that wedding...

Splurge Vs. Save: Blingin’ Rhinestone Wedding Pumps

February 03rd, 2012, by The Broke-Ass Bride

One of these things is not like the other...one is these things is a designer heel that retails for $1,350, and the other is a more budget-friendly alternative that's only $160.

Well...just how much did you love your BeDazzler as a youth?

Splurge Or Save: Adorable Sequin Pumps For Brides + Bridesmaids

November 28th, 2011, by The Broke-Ass Bride

Just because you’re a budget-minded bride doesn’t mean you’re not susceptible to the latest trends. My current obsession, for example: sequin everything. Nothing makes me squeal like a 12 year old at a Hanson concert circa 1997 more than a sparkly pair of designer sequin pumps, or a cute little sequined party dress. But as much as we lust over names like Kate Spade, Vera Wang, or Jimmy Choo –  forking up several hundred dollars for a single pair of shoes puts a serious...

October 24th, 2011, by Azure

  All you need is two pairs of shoes, one bride, one groom and one unique picture to capture, and begin to tell the story of, your wedding.  You spend a year (or two!) planning every last detail down to what shoes you’ll wear down the aisle, so it only makes sense to ensure your photographer gets a keepsake photo of them.     The ‘shoe shot’ will tell a lot more about your wedding than you think. Your shoes reflect not only you and your groom's personalities...
