    Not that I should be encouraging a fellow shoe lover, but I dread getting blisters, and if you time it just right, selfridges in a sale is awesome. I got a lovely pair of jimmy choos for £64 from there last year. So quality is amazing and the price is slightly better too. Hope that helps (maybe not if the wedding is imminent)
