Something old? Something borrowed?


While finding your dream shoes for your wedding can help create a wonderful memory, chances are once the big day has been and gone (and your feet have cursed you for squeezing them into a new pair heels) you’ll sling them into the back of your wardrobe never to be worn again. Rather than splash the cash and land yourself with a lifetime of clutter, why not save yourself the trouble and rent or buy your wedding shoes secondhand? It’s not only better for the planet, but can also save you money and act as your ‘something old’ or ‘something borrowed’. To get you started, we’ve outlined some of our favourite secondhand shopping platforms – and put together an edit of our favourite bridal shoes available now.
