Hot Wedding Shoes: Splurge vs. Steal

The hard work doesn't stop once you find the perfect dress. Now it's time to scout out the right shoes to accent your gown. We’ve picked out four of the hottest footwear trends this season, with both splurge and steal options for each. And, of course, they’re all wedding-worthy.
 

Glitter

Kate Spade's take on the trend will have your feet sparkling from the start of the aisle, and Steve Madden's platform toe will keep you comfortable throughout the celebration.

Splurge: Kate Spade New York Pumps, $325.Steal: Madden Girl Sookiee, $49.95.
 

Bows

The Five-Year Engagement star Emily Blunt recently donned a pair of Gianvito Rossi heels with a bow around the ankle. Why not celebrate the end of your own engagement with a pair of bow-adorned shoes? Oscar de la Renta's mesh ivory version can be worn again and again, and Nina's affordable bridal style won't disappoint.

Splurge: Oscar de la Renta Mesh and Patent Bow Pump, $795. Steal: Nina Electra (shown in Ivory Luster Satin), $99.
 

Cap Toe

An edgy cap toe shoe is perfect for a more modern look. We love Stuart Weitzmann's soft-pink version and Zara's ivory pumps for the extra height.

Lace

Lace adds ladylike elegance while still keeping it sexy. Valentino's dusty-pink stilettos are on our wish list, but our wallets prefer Seychelles strappy sandals.
