Good topic of a post for me, since I CAN''T seem to find the ones I want anywhere in the world!!
I want: open, strappy silver sandals. They HAVE TO be real leather, the HAVE TO have one, single, skinny, strap across the toes (no sequins, no rhinestones, no bows, no multiple straps). The MUST have a flat, flat sole (as in, NO platforms, whatsoever. Not even the tiniest 1/4" of platform)
The MUST have an ankle-strap. A skinny, unadorned one (again, no rhnestones, no bows, no decorations) and the buckle has to be plain, too. Plus, the heel CAN''T be shorter than 3.5." I like super-high heels (but not platforms). Stilettos, I guess those are? When there''s no platform?
Ideally, they''d be strappy and bare where my achilles tendon is, the back of my ankle? I''d like to have the skinny strap criss-cross back there, as opposed to havng a solid pice of leather that the ankle-strap loops through.
I just re-read this little novel. DAYYYYUM, I''m picky. No wonder I haven''t found the shoes.
I have a hard time with bridal shoes, because I personally don''t like fabric shoes, and I *really* dislike satin as a fabric. It''s just not my taste. Even my wedding dress doesn''t have a single thread of satin anywhere on it.
I think I''d be able to compromise a *smidge* on the "no decorations" rule and the "more than one strap over the toes" rule...and if I''m really forced, could deal with the "material at the back of my ankle" but everything else is non-negotiable.
