OMG Shoes

Yes Natalie & Sara, this is for you, and what I think every time I go shoe shopping now!

I puffy-paint heart shoes.  I have a whole rack of heels that I don't really wear because I live in THE MOST CASUAL CITY EVER.  But I have to have them.  Even Jason won't even let me get rid of them!  So of course, shoes were a huge deal in the "accessories"  department of wedding shopping.  Originally, I figured I'd have something blingy, like these:

But as we progressed, "blingy" just wasn't something that worked with our overall theme of "somewhat rustic Japanese-garden-ish."  So then, of course, I wanted colored shoes.  From the get-go, I wanted orange.  HOW AMAZING would they look under my dress with orange flowers and green BM dresses?  AHHHHH-MAZING, that's how amazing.  But I didn't look for any.  You see, wedding shoe shopping is a lot like finding your husband...you are NEVER looking for them when they just stroll into your life.  I was trying to figure out our invitation wording (yes, that'll be another post) when I stumbled across this article  on one of my favorite blogs, Offbeat Bride.  And wouldn't you know, there's a not-super-fancy pair of orange heels on that list!  For cheap-ish!  Yaaay!   I ordered almost immediately.  And got them about a week later. 

Do you know how excited Zappos boxes make me???  Personal photos.

oooo...aaaahhhhh....

Not super high, not super shiny, got to me fast....juuuuuust right!  I heart you Zappos!!!
