Wedding Day Flats (Check!)

February 23rd, 2011 @ 12:08 pm by Mrs. Brooch

You might be shocked to hear this, but I made my first ever purchase from Zappos the other day, and I finally ordered a pair of wedding day flats! They were originally $140, but priced at $90 and included free shipping!

There was only one pair left in my size and when I saw them, I quickly called Mr. B for his advice. I had already let one pair of potential wedding day flats get sold out, and I didn’t want that to happen again! He gave me the green light, and two days later I had a package on my door step. I seriously can’t believe I’ve never ordered from Zappos before—shipping was fast!

I thought of you, hive, as I opened the box! I had a really good feeling about these shoes so I took pictures as I peeled away the tape and tissue paper.

I love the color, the ballet toe, and the bling. Yay!

I have to try them on with my dress, of course, but I have a really good feeling about these shoes. I like them a lot more than the first pair I ordered; they are a lot dressier and I think the color is a perfect match to my dress.

Have you bought your wedding day shoes yet? Have you ordered from Zappos before?

They’re so pretty! I have Pour La Victoire shoes too! I’m wearing the ‘Cordelia’ wedges..they have the same bow on the back as on your flats!

I just heart that little blue bag :)

We were almost shoe twins. But it sounds like these are perfect for you and I’m glad you feel good about your shoes now! Are you keeping the other flats for everyday wear or did they get sent back?

@Miss Lox: Keeping ‘em! I still want to try them with my dress to be sure! Since Spring is right around the corner, though, I’m going to probably hold onto them whether they work or not!
