Tip for brides who need flats!

[KatyWI]

So, I just ordered these:

GoJane Flats



I can't say I've ever ordered from this decidedly youthful online store before, but these flats in white were pretty much exactly what I was looking for, and they're ONLY $13 DOLLARS!!!

So even if they're massively uncomfortable, I'm out thirteen dollars (or I send them back) so it'll be totally worth it! My fiance is only an inch or two taller than I am, so I'm destined for flats on the wedding day, and these have enough detail that they're not totally boring, while not being quite as gorgeous as the $200 Cole Haan flats I'm lusting after. So I'll report back as to whether they're suitable for long-term wear or not.

Happy hunting, ladies!

Very nice. I like them a lot!

I am wearing heels for my actual wedding but I also bought a pir of flats for later in the evening if the heels (3 inch, not massively high) are hurting me.

Those are super cute! I looked, but all the shoes I liked don''t come in my size. Sigh. Hope they are perfect for you!

Those shoes are really nice! I never wear flats, since I am only 5''2". I will be sporting 4 1/2" heels at my wedding!

Lucky, lucky, lucky girls!!! I wish I could wear heels!! I''m almost 5''7" and my fiance is 5''9" on a good day, so I am definitely stuck with flats... and there are NO cute ones it seems!

I really feel you there! I am 5''7 and H is 5''6. Sigh. There are NO cute flats out there right now. Grrrrr!

Those are super-cute and super-cheap! Too bad the silver ones aren''t available in my size.

For others looking for cute flats, these are from katamari''s shoe collection:

They may actually be the most fabulous flats I''ve ever seen. Amazon has them for a pretty nice discount. Endless has them for a little more.

 

[KatyWI]

Oh god, I need those shoes!!!!! But they don''t have them in my size. Boooooo.... back to the drawing board I guess.

 

[jstarfireb]

Bummer! I found these at Nine West if you''re looking for metallic or black - could be a decent alternative?

:-\ I'm with you girl...but get this...I'm almost 5'7" (let's say 5' 6.75") and he's...almost 5'6.5 :-\ BOOOO!!!! (I know it's only like a quarter of an inch shorter than me, but HELLO!?!? It's still SHORTER THAN ME!!!! *CRIES* But, I love him SO SO much and I realized, it hurts him to think there's something about him that I'd change. Like, I'm small-chested...how much would it hurt me if he didn't like what I can't change? Ya know?! Anyway...sorry to have made this about me...LOL)

*Hugs to you girl* And PS I think we're LUCKY that we can wear flats b/c we'll be SOOO much more comfortable!!

And WOW! They really DO have super-cute shoes!! And fabulous prices, too!! Wonder how the quality is. You'll have to let us know!

Haha, I think you''re pretty lucky too! I''m 5''10 and so is M... so if I even wear running shoes and he isn''t I''m taller than he is... though I tend to be taller than alot of people anyways

SOB

I found these last night and searched google for them. They are PERFECTION! But no where are they left in my size. I was seriously upset for over an hour last night. Perfect flats are so hard to find! Yes, I may be being a little bit ridiculous.

I know! I''ve wanted them ever since katamari showed them to us in one of her shoe threads. But sadly, the highest they go is a 40 European, and with my stupid big honkin'' feet, I''m a 41 (US size 11).

You gals who are size 7-9 or so don''t know how good you have it!

I feel your pain! I waver between a 10 and 11 depending on the make of the shoe. Not only are they hard to find, but hard to find ones that look good on big feet!

Ditto! Not usually a lot left in my size section during sales at places like Saks either..sometimes there's a major find, but usually not a lot of 41s left over. I swear by the Blue Tux ones though they are sooo cute and super cheap as well, but these are cute, too!

ETA: I also

the Cole Haan's! I have the air pumps and they are awesome..I'd love to have the flats for the wedding, but out of money at this point.
