Shopping for Bridesmaid Shoes

UPDATE: I have now added the dress photo, sorry I forgot it the first time. :)
My brother is getting married to one of my best friends at the end of the month and I couldn't be more excited! The bride, Camille, will be wearing a vintage dress from Salvage Life that we have redesigned together with the help of a seamstress.  The bridesmaids will all be wearing mismatched vintage floral dresses from Salvage Life, inspired by this photo.
 We all have our dresses and are currently looking for shoes and belts.  Here is a photo of my dress and some shoes I am looking at online.  I would love any feedback you might have on which you think would look best.  We are going for some kind of natural toned shoe and it will be on grass, so I am thinking a wedge or stacked heel. 



The first three pairs are from Anthropologie and the rest are from Lori's Shoes.  Lori's is great, I have never shopped there before, but I actually already bought the last pair shown and am waiting for them to arrive.  They may not be the right style for the dress, but I am sure I will get a lot of use anyway.  Please let me know your thoughts!

Acquisitions and Additions

I just acquired this nautical sweater by Trina Turk and brown leather platforms by Tracy Reese and I can't wait to wear them.  I bought them from a fashionable friend who hosted a sale of her barely worn clothing.  She held the sale at her home, served drinks and hors d' oeuvres and used different rooms display clothes and try things on.  This would also be a great thing to do with a couple friends, maybe set up a few sections where each person could display their items and then invite everyone you know.  It's a high profile garage sale where the seller makes more than they would at a consignment store and the buyer pays less.


These two dresses will be in the shop tomorrow.  I was going to save them until Spring, but with Valentine's Day and Easter in the near future,  I am sure they will find good homes!

Another satisfied customer...

Another wonderful customer just sent these photos of herself wearing a dress from Salvage Life. Nicole Dinardo of Un Amore, custom designs and paints kitchen aid mixers, skateboards, guitars and probably anything else you could imagine. She needed a dress for a retro photo shoot and she found this beautiful yellow chiffon dress from our shop! Thanks for sharing your photos Nicole!
