Oh. My. Word.
If every bride has one thing she can’t get right, mine is the shoes. I even posted a facebook status asking for advice on heels or flats. To which I got: BOTH. Not entirely helpful. Although is probably my only and ultimate solution.
On a whim a few months ago (in the middle of winter mind) I bought a pair of flat sandals with an oversize pink flower on them. From Woolies. But of course. Kinda like these from Topshop:
And of course being a Corporate Slave I have many many pairs of (mainly black) heels.

However.
Can you really not wear a brand spanking new pair of shoe heavenliness on your wedding day? I love Badgley Mischka, Jimmy Choo, Kate Spade, Louboutin... But it’s a case of champagne tastes with bottled water bank account. I have the shortened calf muscles of a mountain biking career gal. Thus wearing flat sandals for me would be sacrilege. Comfort? But WHY? When you can stand 6 feet tall and have good posture and wear something skyscrapery. But I CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING. Fair enough, it is the middle of winter. But nothing even close?
Do I go for colour or cream, kitten or stiletto, sparkly or plain? At this point, it’s my 100 year old black ipanema slops.
Sigh. Sometimes Africa is a giant dark hole of shoelessness :P
These are the sparkly Jimmy Choos I have seen in no less than 2.5 million weddings in the US (how do they all afford them? Is there a sale I don't know about?!):
These however, are spectacular:
