If you are unsure how to make the transition from sneakers to stilettos, then here are 10 dos and don'ts for choosing the perfect pair of shoes Mother of Bride.
1 Do not buy shoes that can be dyed. Perfectly matches the color of your shoes at the bride's mother is very old-fashioned dress. In addition, when your feet sweat, your feet will be converted to color.
2 Do break the shoes before the wedding. Vacuum them. Walk down the stairs in them. Otherwise you'll be walking around the reception area with large blisters.
3 Do not change the rubber or plastic flip-flops for the time of admission, or worse, to go barefoot. The dance floor dorm shower, or waterfront? Changes in the lower fifth of formal shoes if you must, but respect the formality of the event.
4 Do not choose the mother of the bride shoes with a boxy or squared toes. These heavy, clunky looking styles do anything to extend the leg and are best left for more casual outfits. Fine occasions call for the termination of the shoe.
5 Do not buy shoes that are your size! Too many women fall in love with the shoe, which is half a size too big and end up stepping out of it, or they bought too little hope that L will be able to ignore the pain. You can not.

6 Do not wear heels can slip, or fall off. Mule or 5 "stiletto heel will give you rolled ankles and feet swollen, if you do not use them to carry. Let's do the limo, not a hospital, is what carries the official reception
7 Do not opt for the cost of quality when buying Mother Bride shoes. Expensive, good shoes are worth the investment. Skimp on the less important things. (We will not tell anyone those earrings are faux-pearl !)
8 They try to wear a neutral shoe or a metal such as gold, silver and tin, instead of wearing shoes the same color as yours mother of the bride dresses. It is much more sophisticated and elegant!
9 Do not wear flats to high heels ceremony If you squeeze, try a kitten heel or wedge instead -.. You will walk taller and look slimmer with some extra height!
10 Do you choose the right shoes age. Ditch grandmother orthopedic wannabes, but do not choose shoes that looks like it belongs in teenage daughter's closet. Nothing too strappy or shimmer will look tacky on a woman over 40 years.
