    Shoes are normaly and issue with me and im not very much a buy anything clothes wise from cataloges or online, as i like to try them on first to see how they look and feel.

    I know bridal shops normaly have a small selection on bridal shoes to try on with dress but how many of you bought your shoes online coz they looked nice as opposed to from a store because they fitted nice , were comfy?

    I bought about 10 pairs online during the Debs sale with extra 10% off with a voucher code. Tried them all on at home, and returned all to the store expect the pair I wanted to keep for the wedding xxx

    I got mine online becuase I loved the look of them ... they weren't particulary comfy (5 inchs!) and I did swap them for flats after the first dance. But they were comfy enough after they were delivered so I didn't return them. There is the distance selling act so you are guaranteed to get a refund if you buy something online and then return them within 7 days.

    I ordered mine online from debs.....wasnt planning on getting shoes at that time however was just generally having a look saw a pair that would match perfectly with my dress and had the added bonus of being less than half price :-). Had it in the back if my mind that i may need to send them back as i am funny with shoes but the were perfect and are extremly comfortable.

    I looked online first but bought them from the shop so I could try them on. All my bridesmaids bought their shoes online.

    Like lots of others I got mine in the Debs sale online, but I'd ordered some others online from places like the bay and bh.s and they didnt fit.

    Bh.s bridal section is annoying, you can't return them to store, you have to send then off to a courier.

    i got mine from a bridal shop when i was chief bridesmaid for my dads wedding - only wore them for walking down isle and they are still brand new. debs have some good ones - try and go to a bigger department store in city centre if you dont want to buy on line they will have a bigger selection. didnt see much that i liked in b h s x

    I got mine offline, before they made the changes on them that I requested, they sent the plain shoe out to me to try on first. This is what convinced me to go with the site that I went with.

    Comfort and fit are both really important to me. With both my pairs, I already had shoes by the same designers so had a good idea of size and comfort; but different styles can come up differently, so, I tried both first. However, I had to order them online as they didn't have the colours I wanted in stock in my size in-store.

    I don't really buy things online much, unless I know that it will fit/have seen the fabric etc. In fact about the only things I buy online are shoes from 2 designers I like, as I have quite a few pairs of their shoes so know that the quality is good and what size I am in different styles.

    I have problems with shoes too I'm a 5.5 in shoes with narrow fit so lots of shoes don't fit but I have bought mine online. I have bought a 5 and a 6 and will send the ones that don't fit back. I found that shops didn't have as much of a selection, I have gone for menbur shoes all the feed back I have seen say they are very comfy. plus online you can shop around and get a better price m shoes were different styles as I couldn't pick between them one is under £40 the other under £50 both retail at over £100. I did try some in bhs and debs but I didn't find them at all comfy I like shoes to have padding in the heel and soles to give me that bit of added comfort.

    I managed to get a half size for my shoes from the site I used and also had a bit of padding in them. I went for a comfy wedge which has been glammed up a bit :)

    I got mine online from next in their sale, I had already tried them on in store but I wasn't sure I wanted to spend that much on them, so when they went into the sale that was perfect! Also bought my bridesmaids ones online from Debs, but we had seen them in store before and they both already had shoes from that designer so I knew what sizes to get :) xx

    I have a disability which has caused my feet to be 1.5-2 sizes difference depending where I shop, I can honestly say hand on heart I HATE shoes and shopping for them! I live in either timberlands, uggs, slippers or flipflops
    I always have to but two pairs of shoes and put one pair in the bin...

    I've got two pairs both from Internet... Flats and small kitten heels that I can just Bout walk in (my ankles wobble due to no tendon or muscular strength in my bad leg)

    Good luck xxx
