Lime and Azure

Tuesday, April 5, 2011

Remember when, for a brief moment, Christian Louboutin bridal shoes meant a divine "something blue" sole instead of cherry red? While almost nothin' beats an iconic peak of red beneath a wedding gown, there's something irresistible about the combination of this lime green satin peep toe and its azure sole! What do you think: is the bottom of your wedding shoes a perfect place to hide your something blue, or are you truly devoted to those gorgeous red soles?

    what a clever idea! i'm seriously loving these colors together. the green is so fresh and energizing. and the blue on the sole is so unique and such a wonderful pop of color.

    you find the best things!

    I love, love, love these. Where were these when I was getting married? And yes, the bottoms are a great place for secrets. I had a satin, kelly green pair and on the soles was our initials. Just a cute detail.

    These would really make a bold color statement, peeking out from a bride's gown!

    Love this combination! It's surprisingly refreshing! And to be honest, I wouldn't mind the blue. Louboutins are a classic. With, or without the red sole! xo, Gabriella

    I adore these colours together. So fresh and pretty. However, like you wrote Miss Lena I am truly devoted to that pretty pop of red under the traditional Louboutins :) That is if I ever own a pair! haha xo

    Well I love some red soles, so why not get blue Louboutins with the classic red? Best of both worlds :)

    Two of my favorite colors: bold, unexpected and completely fabulous. I would love to rock these babies with dark skinnies and a black or white t-shirt.

    That color combination is classic yet preppy, and fun yet fancy. I love it. I can add this to the ever-growing list of things that I would include if I were to get married again! (To DH, of course!)

    these two colors together are perfect! I am a bit biased and loved the red under my dress but Louboutin blue is just as special!

    And thank you for your super sweet comment on Jacin's blog about my wedding video- it was so nice to share it with so many people
