04 Feb 03 - 09:00 PM (#882756) Subject: RE: BS: what to wear at a wedding wedding ! From: Burke Brides feet are usually covered by their long dresses. Does the fact you're thinking of something to the knee mean the dress is not floor length? Have you considered dance shoes? They are usually pretty comfortable. "Character shoes" have a heel, but the base is pretty wide so you're not so likely to fall over. Square dance shoes are usually lower. What's a wedding wedding? As to noticing women's shoes. You might not notice them, but I bet you notice the ankles & calves. The higher heels make the ankles look slimmer & legs just look nicer. Low is comfortable. When women wear slacks, they can wear shoes that look about like men's. They are comfortable & rarely noticed. They'd look awful with a skirt. |

04 Feb 03 - 09:10 PM (#882761) Subject: RE: BS: what to wear at a wedding wedding ! From: Allan C. Hey, it has very little to do with how you look. It has everything to do with how you feel about how you look. In other words, whether the shoes can be seen is not always the issue. |

Two great results here.........First, no one will give a damn what shoes you have on and second, everyone will be able to tell who the Best Man really is............. Spaw |

05 Feb 03 - 08:11 AM (#883000) Subject: RE: BS: what to wear at a wedding wedding ! From: Tinker Ballet slippers are really comfortable, but don't offer much support. Look at a dance supply store. Low jazz boots might be an option if you don't want character shoe heels. The clogging shoes might also be an option. It really depends on the rest of the outfit and your own comfort. I decided on low heels and spent most of the day barefoot. I should have jusst worn the ballet slippers. Tinker |

05 Feb 03 - 03:13 PM (#883358) Subject: RE: BS: what to wear at a wedding wedding ! From: katlaughing The only shoes I will wear are Birkenstocks, even with dresses and skirts. In fact, I once went to a semi-formal dance in a beautiful yellow brocade dress with my birks! From what I've seen of weddings these days, one can waer whatever they wish, esp. if they are comfortable! Anyway, Birkenstock does have some nice looking sandals which might suffice. If you waterproof them, just go without stockings, as we used to do in New England, and they'll just dry out as will your feet.:-) (That store is in Connecticut, USA, but I am sure you could find some over there.) Have fun! kat |
