I don’t know why I’m so obsessed with finding my wedding shoes right this instant.

OK I lied, I do know. It’s because I want  them in my possession before I go to my first dress fitting.

That being said, I was browsing everyone’s favorite obsession site (AKA Pinterest) the other day and saw these:

I don’t even need to tell you why I’m in love. Just look at the TURQUOISE SOLES. Amazing.

I did some research (aka looked at the caption) and saw that the brand, Pour la Victoire, has a whole line of bridal/wedding shoes, many of which are sold on Zappos. Which is where I saw these:

Are you dying yet? You should be. They’re amazing.

So I ordered those babies on the spot at about 10:30pm. I woke up the next morning to an email from Zappos saying that they already shipped them, and got them in the mail the very next day. Seriously? I said it before, I’ll say it again, and no I’m not being sponsored: I love Zappos. Big puffy heart love. That’s twice in a row that I got my shoes in less than 48 hours!

So the shoes are totally gorgeous both off and on. They are a unique shade of ivory that I’m a bit cautious about, since I’m not sure it will “go” with the dress. Then again, I never really cared about that kind of stuff, and I’m not inviting the fashion police to the wedding, so I should be OK.

My one gripe is that the only turquoise is on the soles, and I really want something by the peep toe. If these work with the dress (both color and height wise), I’m thinking of shnazzing them up a bit. Maybe bling it out with some turquoise crystals or take off the bow in the back and put a flower in the front. I have no idea. But the world is my oyster and these shoes are totes-magotes the pearls.

Terrible analogy, but you get it.

Meep!

Are you jazzing up your wedding shoes in any way?
