Help me find some shoes for my wedding!

Hello you lovely lot.

I am trying to find some shoes for my wedding and it seems impossible to find exactly what I want.

I'm looking for simple, flat leather sandals in a blush/nude colour, preferably with one thick strap across the toes and one strap around the ankle. I don't want anything clompy or too busy.

I've tried all the high street usual suspects, but I'm struggling to think of good quality independent brands other than the ones that advertise to me on Instagram! My mum has loads of beautiful classic sandals but typically she bought them all in Italy.

Any ideas?!

As an example, I love these but they're the wrong colour!

There's a few on La Redoute:

www.laredoute.co.uk/ppdp/prod-350147382.aspx rope sole maybe a bit casual?

www.laredoute.co.uk/ppdp/prod-350023955.aspx these are apparently silver but IDK, they look pink to me.

Or, if you have the budget and are lucky with sizes, The Outnet?

www.theoutnet.com/en-gb/shop/product/flat-sandals_cod272216333604454.html#dept=INTL_Flat_SANDALS_SHOES bit fussy?

www.theoutnet.com/en-gb/shop/product/flat-sandals_cod272216333680183.html#dept=INTL_Flat_SANDALS_SHOES I think these are gorgeous

www.theoutnet.com/en-gb/shop/product/flat-sandals_cod1473020371315043.html#dept=INTL_Flat_SANDALS_SHOES bit different

Then I went down an Ancient Greek rabbit hole:

It's so frustrating when you have the perfect item in your head and cannot find it in the shops!

Thank you!! Yes it's incredibly frustrating - I've almost considered emailing someone at the company who make the example above and asking if they can make me a custom pair!

That Ancient Greek place looks promising - having a proper look now

Sorry, the ivory ones have gone now, so only rubbish colours left!
