M and I have several weddings over the next few weeks. I found a dress a while back but I had been unable to find any shoes to go with the dress. It may be a bit too “springish” for fall weddings but I really liked it and it was half off. So it was a great deal. This weekend I told M we had to go to the mall and find a new shirt for him and shoes for me. Even though the dress would probably look better with silver shoes, I’ve been missing my gold shoes.
Several years ago I bought a pair of gold Nine West sandals. I LOVED these shoes. To the point that they were literally falling apart but I just couldn’t get rid of them. Then one day I decided it was time to put them out of their misery. That was almost 3 years ago. Since then I have been unable to find a pair I just loved…..until yesterday. As we were walking through Belk for the 2nd time I saw them. Gold strappy sandals, on sale! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! :) It was like the heavens smiled down. I tried them on and was in love, again.
I find it funny that I LOVE gold shoes. Gold is not really my color and I pretty much own nothing else gold. But I love gold shoes. The new ones aren’t a sparkley as the old ones but they look great with jeans, and well that’s what matters. And of course there is a pic. 🙂
Aren’t they great?
Also noteworthy today, I finally got the call. You know THE call, my dress is in! I am so excited. And I would be even more excited if I could go and get it this weekend. I’m not really sure what to do. I guess M and I will have to make a beach trip next weekend. I can’t wait to see me in my dress. And not some stupid model in some crappy internet pic.
All of the excitement from my dress almost makes me forget about the fact that I feel like complete and utter crap. I woke up at 4:30 this morning after dreaming I couldn’t breathe/swallow. Only to find out I really couldn’t. My head has revolted against the cooler weather and I feel awful. I’m going to try to make it through the day. It was so bad that after a hot shower this morning I even used my neti-pot. Not that it helped really. I still feel like I have something in my throat making breathing and swallowing difficult. I guess I will try to make it the day and see what happens. I foresee some nyquil in my future.
