Wedding season has just gotten underway, but our wedding shoe series is drawing to a close. Our final model is another ShoeMall employee – Rachel K. Her dress is a great example of a timelessly elegant wedding dress. The cut, style and simple embellishments make this a dress that has the potential to be fashionable many years into the future. Who knows, if she has a daughter someday it may even become a family heirloom!

When pairing shoes and accessories with an elegant dress, you have a couple of options. You can [ . . . ]

I have no less than six weddings to go to so far this summer, by far the most I have ever had scheduled in the same year before! Somehow, I don’t think things will be slowing down for a couple of years – not that I’m complaining! I love everything about weddings – from the ceremony to the fashion to the food. Plus, it’s always fun to have an excuse to visit with friends and family that you otherwise don’t get to see very often.

Ginnifer Goodwin is pictured rocking a pair while filming the movie Something Borrowed, due out June 2011.

This week, our model is ShoeMall’s own merchandiser Pepsi! She was married last Labor Day Weekend in a beautiful outdoor ceremony. As you can probably tell from the photo, she did an awesome job of putting her own personal spin on her wedding. From her unique bouquet to the homemade goodies at each table (think salsa, applesauce, maple syrup), she left no detail untouched – making this [ . . . ]

We are on to the second week of our wedding series. Last week we brought you “ShoeMall’s Shoes to Say I Do – Grecian Wedding” and this week our topic of choice is: Outdoor Weddings. According to The Wedding Report, 35% of weddings are outdoor and 53% of weddings are performed in a church.

For many brides, picking out your wedding shoes is a pretty big deal, and we all know there are several options out there. Finding the perfect pair doesn’t have to be stressful. Here are some keys points to keep in mind while trying to complete your look for your special day.

1) Comfy is key. Sure those 4-inch blue Manolo Blahnik’s are sexy, but [ . . . ]

The first shoes I ever remember falling in love with were a pair of Steve Madden wedges. They were my first memorable pair of brand name footwear, and in all my fourteen years I had never seen a more perfect shoe. I lovingly called them my bale of hay shoes – [ . . . ]

I was definitely surprised when I first heard that Katy Perry and Russell Brand were seeing each other. She seemed spunky and a little wild. He seemed vulgar and a little dirty. I didn’t get it and didn’t think it would really last – probably because he didn’t really strike me as the monogamous type.
