Wedding shoes are one of our favourite things to research in WOL HQ, we literally cannot get enough. Playful pumps, kitsch kitten heels or sassy sandals – there’s just too many to choose from! In the flurry of it all (‘OMG these ones’ ‘no, you have to see these ones’) we felt a little overwhelmed – but, we said, surely the girls on the forums feel the same?! Well, perhaps that’s why one of the posts we came across today was entitled ‘How many pairs of wedding shoes have you bought?‘ So, we must put a disclaimer on this article. And here it goes:
PROCEED WITH CAUTION.
In fact, if you have your shoes already, move on to something else entirely. Read something practical like this piece on how to change your name or maybe read this piece of advice from real brides.
You’re still here aren’t you?
Well, don’t say we didn’t warn you!
