Kitten heels are very popular for example. You must then choose the color of your pair of shoes. You also need to think about certain criteria before you decide. We take stock.
What are the trending colors for bridal shoes in 2024?
“The essential colors remain gold, platinum, silver and white, ecru or pastel tones”, indicates the expert. It is true that this type of shade goes with everything and does not clash too much with the white of the dress (traditional color at a wedding). In addition, the metallic effect is very trendy this year: we see it on clothes but also accessories. “At Mellow Yellow, the best-selling model for ceremonies is the Valéria in platinum color. This pair can be suitable for both brides and guests. It’s a model that can easily be combined with various outfits: short dress, long dress, pants… And as a bonus, it’s an easy pair to wear in everyday life.” Thinking about being able to carry over your shoes is important to be able to recoup your purchase.

“Choosing a pair of shoes in bright colors can also be a bias to awaken a more formal look.” You are free to choose to spruce up your dress with a pair of pink, red, or even blue shoes according to your tastes: nothing is forbidden.
Two factors to consider when choosing your wedding shoes
Beyond being trendy, the pair of shoes worn during your wedding must also be comfortable. Indeed, you are there to enjoy a great time, not to have sore feet as soon as you get up. Comfort comes first. “And comfort doesn’t necessarily mean flat shoes. Neither shoes with a “comfort look”. Look, fashion and fantasy (style) are absolutely not contradictory with comfort”reassures the expert. “Good heeled shoes should be comfortable and able to be worn all day. And for greater safety, the ideal is to bring two pairs, especially when you are not used to wearing heels.”

Next, you have to think about the style of the pair, and whether it matches that of your dress. “You have to match your shoes to your outfit (or your outfit to your shoes if you started with shoes), you won’t wear the same pair with a short dress or a pantsuit.”
The mistake not to make when choosing your wedding shoes
The important thing is always to feel good in your shoes. “If you are not used to wearing heels, avoid choosing ones that are too high or too thin to avoid any risk of falling. This is a day where you will be stomping, walking, dancing… You really need to that you wear an arch that you are used to.”
