    Do you have the name of them, then you could ask in the shop rather than online?

    Didnt get the name but can describe them real well. When I looked online there was only size 5 left, low stock and only available online, couldn't do the reserve and collect option. They must be end of season sale stock but I'm out tomorrow so will give it a try. Luckily I wasn't dead set on them and I've other options - tbh would have been more gutted if I'd missed out on the jewellery I got on ebay lol

    Thats not so bad then. Jewellery is VERY important :D
  • I'm wearing purple strappy sandals!

    Purple is my favourite colour and I have always wanted a pair of purple shoes. I found mine on ebay, new with tags (originally from New Look) for a bargain £8!
  • I'll let you know when I get them whether they look like they could be dyed if you like!

    Not sure if they can be dyed, as the wedge is satin, plus they're already a gold colour.
    I got them in the post yesterday. Tried them on, and although they look pretty from the front, they look realy clumpy on the sides, and they are VERY high.
    Will probs send em back.

    It seems the rainbow shoes are winning again :D;)

    Thanks Rainbow! It's a shame the New Look shoes aren't right for you, although maybe the rainbow ones are just meant to be... ;)

    These are mine (scuse the huge pic)

    Had to have something fairly traditional as my dress is calf length, and as I have big feet, had to be something with a low heel.

    I was trying to avoid diamantes and pearls, but it seems it's impossible! lol

    I agree though that wedding shoe shopping can be a pain, especially if you much prefer to wear trainers and comfy boots all the time!
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.
  • Ooh, pretty kitty!
  • These are mine, used the £20 off £50 spend so they cost £42 including delivery & I will wear plenty of time afterwards!!!
