Shoes for a wedding...

30 replies

MariaAngustias · 20/08/2021 19:17

Anyone got any suggestions of where I may find some dark green shoes suitable for a wedding (my daughters) - I have been searching for a while and not found anything suitable. I can get some dyed from the Rainbow Club but their shoes look quite old fashioned. Not too high either as I am tall and also have an old knee injury!

Would appreciate any ideas...

I think you may struggle, green is a difficult colour to find. I’m just browsing through Brand Alley and John Lewis and they have hardly anything. How about a contrasting colour, maybe gold or nude.

What shade of green are you after? Have you already chosen your outfit?
I love greenGrin

I love this brand, they are very comfy, you can really walk in them all day long.
But the style is very particular, you either like it or hate it. And they can be expensive in the UK; I usually buy in Spain or Italy.

Like other posters I think you will struggle as dark green a niche shoe colour

Could you post the outfit so we could suggest alternatives - without seeing it I'm going to suggest pewter, antique gold

BeaLola · 21/08/2021 10:52

House of Bruar have these - to me it's not a dark green - they class it as bottle green

Last one (can you tell I like green)

laveintinueve.com/shop/en/shoes/2347-pamela-green-orange-patent-leather-women-shoes.html

These have lots of different colours.

MariaAngustias · 21/08/2021 11:25

oh thanks for the suggestions - just logged in. Will have a good look at all of these - it is like a bottle green to match my hat, the outfit is a pistachio / mint dress and coat (quite plain) and I have a fancy Ted Baker handbag which is pink with flowers and has both the greens in it to (hopefully) draw everything together....... I did think about neutral too but daughter told me dark green so who I am to argue :)

@Disfordarkchocolate these look hopeful .... but out of stock in my size! I think I will end up getting a different colour

Will post a pic of outfit later x

It might also be worth looking for shoes suitable for dancing.

Bythehairywartsonmywitchychin · 21/08/2021 11:57

I’d get pink shoes to match the flowers in the bag

MsDastardley · 21/08/2021 12:51

These are nice. Heard good things a oust this brand but quite expensive rachelsimpsonshoes.co.uk/collections/green-shoes

notangelinajolie · 21/08/2021 16:46

If you can cope with heels, LKBennett do a nice dark green swede court shoe but they are out of stock atm

Failing that I know John Lewis sell LKBennett. It might be worth going to a store to see what they have in.

What about these?

Those Rachel Simpson shoes are beautiful.

GemmaRuby · 21/08/2021 17:45

I know this is not what you asked, and please feel free to ignore my unsolicited advice…
I would get pink shoes to match the bag. I would also ditch the green fascinator. If that’s you hiding behind the outfit, the dark green won’t show up well against your dark hair. Go for a pink or mint green head thingy.

ApolloandDaphne · 21/08/2021 18:59

I agree that a pale pink fascinator and shoes would be much better.

100% agree with this. Also I know it’s shoe advice that you’re after, but honestly the coat thing looks very ageing.

I hope you’re not regretting asking for advice OP. I like the jacket btw.
