LBC: Your favorite three pairs of shoes for Lolita

Lolita Blog Carnival

This was the PERFECT theme for me this week ^_^
Mainly b/c I was FINALLY working on my Lolita Wardrobe post ;)
But, also b/c I recently got a new pair of shoes that are AMAZING ^^

And here they are:
 1) AATP Cabriole Legs Ribbon Shoes in Red
These shoes are soooo amazing!! Not ONLY are they comfortable & surprisingly easy to walk in...the red is the perfect color & it matches A LOT of my Lolita pieces(teaser pic) XD

These red shoes match my AATP pieces of course, but other brands & even indie brands ^^
I just had time to try them on so far, but I can't WAIT to wear them out in some wonderfully classic coord ^^

 2) Funtasma Victorian boots in Gold
These have become my "go to" shoes for anything that's gold based or has gold ;)
It's super fun coordinating with these bold shoes & the victorian look makes outfits look even more classic ^^

here are some coords i've done with them
The gold shoes PERFECTLY accent my whitexgold coffin purse ^^ 

It's Blue x Gold for this coord with Mirage in Paradox ^^

And for a really bold look, pairing the boots with colored tights really makes the colors pop ^^

And lastly, it's a TIE for Third fave shoe:
3a) I'm between the ever classic RHS
I only have white right now, but I just bought a 2nd hand black pair & can't wait to get it ^^
Basically, these are my default Lolita shoes...& can be worn with Classic, Sweet, etc ;)

Here are some coords:
For this, I switched out my plain white ribbon laces for ones with crosses on them ^^

Another bunny coord w/ white lace top socks ^^

And then ANOTHER bunny (guess I associate these shoes with bunny ears ^^)
But this one was OTT sweet/mint, so I layered my socks & the white shoes really show off the mint socks well ^^

And 3b) Offbrand Brown Lolita Shoes
And the best thing about these shoes...THEY'RE FROM FOREVER21!! ^_^
I got it a while ago & use it for All my outfits that have brown in it ;)

Some examples:

These shoes give me lots of height XD

They're the perfect brown color for Steampunk Lolita

These shoes also match lots of chocolate prints ^^

And Bear prints ^_^

Plus, these 2 shoes are even MORE SPECIAL b/c I wore them when I met some awesome 
Lolita Idols XDD

Meeting Iruma Rioka at Kawaii Kon ^^
She's such an amazing performer & so sweet in person XD

And...what may possibly be the best day of my Lolita life...Midori was a SUPER surprise guest at a friend's Welcome Back party & I had just gotten my Kuma Kumya JSK, which she recognized INSTANTLY ;) 

Well, I noticed that a lot of my favorite shoes aren't actual Lolita brand shoes, but I've recently started buying MORE brand shoes, so I'll eventually make the switch over from offbrand to brand...although...I STILL think these will be my faves ;D

And now check out these LBC member's fave shoe choices:
