ah shoes... one of the many wedding related "projects" that makes me want to bash my head in. not being able to stand, let alone walk, in heels over 3 inches its been quite difficult to find cute/classy/sexy/whatever - not ugly shoes to wear at the wedding.
i've already purchased and returned 3 pairs. one of them was actually perfect, EXCEPT, it was about 1/2 size too small. it was purple glitter and it made me smile and it looked awesome with my dress. Drat my unusually sized feet (small but wide) and the lack of options on the clearance racks of DSW.
today, I may have found wedding shoes on Gilt. shocking, I know (sarcasm). i've only purchased 3 wedding related items from Gilt since the Dr introduced it to me a few months ago. anyways, these shoes are about 3x what i was hoping to spend ($50) including tax and shipping, however, they are "designer" (Jean-Michel Cazabat, if that means something to you) and (according to Gilt) normally retail for $475, so thats something - right?
these shoes are also glitter (holla!) but this time in "gunmetal" so they have more before/after wedding use potential than the purple shoes. they also only have a 2 3/4" heel - score! and are returnable for credit within 21 days, double score. oh, and their name makes me chuckle to myself - "Louloub peep toe pumps". am i the only one that finds that amusing? not actually sure why.
anyways, since i'm sure you've already scrolled down here are the pics.
