In 2013, variety is the new catch of the day.  As you know, many wedding dresses don’t feature the shoe unless the bride wants them to be seen.  In the past many brides have worn simple flats or even white sandals to ensure comfort.  This year, is the year of the bold bride that likes to add a dash of bold style to her somewhat traditional ceremony.  Today I will list the top 10 wedding shoe trends for 2013:

1. Pink Heels – Many women first started planning out their perfect wedding when they were even a child.  The pink bridal heeled shoes lets a woman declare her of love of the simple girly things in life and yet still be proud to call herself an independent woman.

   

2. Custom printed shoes – Thanks to the improvements in technology today, made heeled wedding shoes can have your favorite print, or even something symbolic or sentimental printed on them.

   

3. Mint – Hot color of the year.  This is the hot color of 2013 and seem to be found throughout numerous wedding magazines and fashion runways.  A little hint of mint adds crispness and a light dash of color to any color palette.

   

4. Custom decorated vintage wedding heels – With places like Etsy now very popluar you can easily find the perfect shoes and get it custom tailored to your exact specification including adding delicate vintage lace or retro styles to it.  Just because you can’t find a vintage shoe in your size, don’t worry, Etsy artists can easily turn a new shoe into a vintage one for you.

   

5. Pop of Color bridal shoes – Every woman likes to have a little surprise under their sleeve (or dress) that characterizes their bold favorite color from within their bridal color palette.  As you walk down the aisle you can surprise your guests with a little flash of color to make your walk even more breathtaking.  Remember it’s all about you on this day, let them remember it.

   

6. Feathered – Feather earrings started this trends up a few years ago.  Now this unique trend is coming onto the bridal scene. You don’t need to have all natural when going this route.  Plenty of artists on Etsy are able to find any type of style or color to add a memorable feathery touch to the shoe of your choice too.

   

7. Peep Toe Pedicure Highlight Shoes – Highlight your pedicure with a peep toe or open toed shoe that gives your wedding attendees a small flash of color. The pedicure and manicure relaxing experience alone is a solid therapy to prevent bridezilla from coming out as the wedding nears.

   

8. Traditional Classic Ivory – These will never go out of Style – Most brides buy white for their bridal wedding shoes becuase it just makes sense to them.

   

9. Match your flowers or Accent color –

   

10. For those who want to impress – Stuart Weitzman’s Rita Hayworth Heels – the most expensive wedding shoe in the world. It hasn’t even been worn to a wedding. Just to a simple 2006 Oscar nomination that is adorned with diamonds, sapphires and rubies. We don’t have that much spare change laying around (like $3.1 Million dollars), but you can wear shoes that alone will WOW a crowd if you choose.
