I caved

I bought new shoes. I am not supposed to be spending money on shoes, but these were so cute, and really nice colors, and ON SALE!
Are they in our wedding colors? they are silver and blue, which is in the color scheme. Are they comfortable? they look like it! i won't be worried about tripping since there is no pointy heel! But the real test will come when they arrive.

I found these bad boys on 6pm.com but didn't want to pay the shipping fee, so I searched online until I saw that Overstock.com had them with free shipping! So worst case scenario, my $35 can be refunded if I decide to return them!

Yay shoes! Boo my inability to say "no"!

What's on hand?

So I decided to start this whole wedding planning process by looking at what I might not need to purchase. My mother is, of course, most excited about the dress shopping. After trying on a few gowns, I have also become excited about the dress, because I found that I fit samples perfectly!

As exciting as dresses are, the accessories are not as exciting for me. Especially with the price tags on veils, shoes, and hair accessories.

So one lovely Sunday, I think to myself, I wonder if I have any accessories in my closet that I could use? Lo and behold, I then discover a crystal hair clip and a pair of never worn (tags still on), white leather shoes!
We have already chosen our wedding colors (blue and silver), and my Catholic mother is very animate about my having a white wedding dress (not ivory, not off-white...)
So it seems that these accessories may be a perfect fit! Right out of my closet! I think that is $100-150 saved already!
