...when it comes to the bridesmaid shoes?
I'm going to be a bridesmaid at my brother's wedding in October. The dresses are roughly knee length and are a deep red. Hard to describe the colour, not a bright candy red, not a dark maroon, but a nice medium-dark red.
My soon to be sis-in-law is insisting on silver shoes. I know that it can be easy for red and silver to look tacky together, especially since this is a warm darker red and she's leaning towards light colored silver. I'm kinda worried. (I'd prefer black shoes, but it's not my call so *shrugs*).
I also know that if it has to be silver a muted tone is probably best?
The other part of the problem is she wants pale silver strappy sandals with diamontes and I'm REALLY not into that look at all. It's also the fact that my feet look terrible in strappy open type shoes. I'm not trying to be a B**** about it, in fact I've bitten my tongue so far because I'm not entirely sure how much right I have to even say anything? It's not so much that her taste is different to mine (because it is her day and I get that), but more the fact that my feet are on the wide side and look terrible in strappy open type shoes, plus they tend to hurt my toes.
Does a bridesmaid have the right to say they feel uncomfortable in a certain type of shoe, or that they know it looks unflattering on them?
