For most women their wedding day is their chance to be the center of attention and they know that at some point if not the entire walk down the aisle, all eyes will be on them. This is why it is so important to choose a bridal shoe that will compliment the wedding dress and also show off your ankles and the beautiful toes with the bright colorful polish from your new pedicure.



Many women are taking the advice of those who specialize in weddings and wedding planning and are going with bridal shoes that have at least a 3" heel because the high heels make the walk a little sexier and also cause the bride to arch her back which also gives a look of femininity. In tandem with the high heels are ankle straps. This style has all but taken over the hot bridal shops that feature top designers like Jimmy Choo and Manolo.

The reason that the strapped wedding shoes are becoming so popular is because they offer such flexibility in design and they also help to hold the shoes in place where they need to be while at the same time looking carefree and open. You can choose from criss cross designs made from high quality satin which are wrapped around the ankle and then tied in a ribbon or you can choose a single strap design that uses some type of clasp to fasten the strap. This style usually exposes the toes and also features rhinestones fro a classy and elegant look.

The strapped variety of wedding shoe is not just for high heels. Even though most high heel wedding shoes feature straps to help hold the shoes where they need to be low heels can feature straps as well and add a certain look of beauty and elegance. This is important because many brides who are not used to wearing tall heels may feel uncomfortable in them and therefore should not give a second thought to buying the lower heels so that they are not feeling unsure of themselves as they make that important walk to the altar.

Even slip on wedding shoes are now coming with straps, of course they are in most cases the do it yourself type of strap but they can still be very sexy and elegant looking at a lower price in many cases. You can find these shoes in a variety of fabrics and in leather as well.
