An alternative to high-heels for brides?

Yas Bonessi Ballerina gold shoe design perfect for weddings

 

 

When it comes to a bride’s big day, there is an expectation to wear sky-high stiletto heels all day, but for many, this tradition can cause more stress than anything else!

Bonessi Ballerinas wants brides to feel at ease, beautiful and beautiful on their memorable day, and this is why they have designed the Yas Ballerina as an elegant and comfortable alternative to high heels.
