Ouch. These shoes are SO cute, but they are just about a 1/2 size too small! Eeeek! But I love them. And I bought them from Marshalls during the summer, and you know how it goes at those stores....they usually have one pair of one kind of shoe you just have to hope that the pair they have is your size! You know? I don't think this outfit did them justice....the jeans were too long and covered up their cuteness. But, just because you can't see them, doesn't mean they aren't there. Right?
I wore these shoes to my friend Randy's wedding in December to his beautiful wife Megan (this is actually one of the few weddings that I have ever been to that I was not actually a part of! Crazy!) I wore them with gray tights, a gray dress, and my black blazer. Super cute. Super fun wedding. They are such an awesome couple. Their wedding was 100% a reflection of their personalities. Randy is a really special friend in my life. He has been my friend since our freshman year of high school, we even went with each other to our very first high school dance! (oh Homecoming 1999, how fun you were!) We were on ASB together, he introduced me to one of my very best friends, and he is just an all-around awesome guy. It was interesting to attend a wedding for a male friend, because he is really one of my only male friends that is married (besides all of the men who married my girlfriends!) and it was surprisingly just as emotional and touching to see him get married as it has been to see all of my girl friends get married.
These shoes have a story. And even though they are a teensy wee bit too small, I am still going to wear them, because I just can't bear to part with something that carries such nice memories as these do.
P.S. I FOUND YELLOW SHOES!!!!! The BIG day is in two days for Summer and Kelly! I am super stressed, but super excited to get their wedding weekend started! I just have to get through the rest of this week and then HERE COMES "WEDDING ALI"!!!! (she's really fun, super irresponsible, and an AMAZING dancer---if you've never had the pleasure of making her acquaintance!)
