score!

Dear Fiancé,

You may think I don't listen to you, but, turns out, I do [usually.]

[ok, sometimes.]

I know you were scandalized by the thought of a $700+ pair of shoes in our home. And, truth be told, so was I (this is just one of the reasons I'm marrying you...we really are on the same page, see... except when you ask me to go camping). So, even before I saw the look of mortification on your face last night when I told you I'd bid on the Christian Louboutins, I had already discovered...[no peeking if Your name is The Fiancé!]... these ...at a mere fraction of the cost (literally)... and half-off. Half-off!! That just screams "buy me!" So clearly, I'd already ordered them (I mean, I didn't really think I'd luck into Louboutins for $300, and if I did, well, we'd find room for them. Somewhere. On my head if need be].

Anyway, the magical little much-less-expensive green shoes arrived today.

...AND I LOVE THEM! We have a winner! I do believe the green-wedding-shoe-quest has ceased! I actually can't adequately express on a blog how comfortable they are. And how they actually look far better in person than they did on the webpage. [And even if I hate them when I put them on with my dress - who cares! because they are returnable for 365 days at endless shoes - Gawd, I love online shoe shopping...]

This is not to say I won't be tempted to purchase a pair of designer adornments for the rehearsal dinner, but for now, I'm feeling pretty darn smug with the comfort and right-ness of these for the wedding day.
