my shoes

February 17th, 2010

For the perfect dress you need the perfect shoes. I’m sure most brides out there carefully choose their shoes as much as they do their gown. It’s probably one of the top 3 accessories a bride will take extra care in selecting (after the ring and the groom).

When I first laid eyes on these Giuseppe Zanotti heels (almost a year ago) they were selling at Neiman Marcus for over $1,000! Although I had not chosen a gown yet,  I knew I had to have these as my wedding day shoes.  I was of course discouraged from the price tag, but about 6 months later I was fortunate enough to find them on chickdowntown.com at a discount in a half size smaller than what I normally wear. I figured they are open, strappy sandals so a half size smaller wouldn’t hurt.  On top of it being discounted I found a coupon code for an additional 30% off. Needless to say I got them at about 70% off retail pricing. This goes to show that patience certainly does pay off. Even with the discount they are still the most expensive shoes I own (probably ever will!).

Description:  slim light gold leather straps, gorgeous Swarovski crystals, and a gold metallic stiletto heel.

don’t you love ’em? I certainly do! Everything about it is perfect. (just hope I can wear them for hours on end that day)
