Miss Moonbeam's Picture
Miss Moonbeam, Los Angeles/San Antonio Age and Occupation: 26, Intern Architect Fiance's Age and Occupation: 26, Studio Analyst, aspiring Screenwriter Engagement Date: May 20, 2009 Wedding Date: November 2009 Venue: Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church (LaCoste, TX) and Mary Gray Events Center (Castroville, TX) About Me: I was born and raised in Texas, but after college I moved to Seattle for a couple of years and loved it. Then I followed my beau out here to LA and we're getting settled in. I've been making things since I can remember. I was raised by crafters. I love to sew, draw, paint, build, cook, bake (anything with a tangible end result is fair game). In that same spirit, I've been hosting since I was old enough to cook and set a fancy table. I kind of take after my grandmother, who believes that your morning OJ always tastes better out of the good crystal.

Shoes 2

November 6th, 2009 @ 5:55 pm by Miss Moonbeam

In my last shoe post, I thought I was very into those blue Calvin Klein’s, but the bottom had a very ’sturdy’ sole. I know it’s silly, but I wasn’t digging the black rubber. I even found them in person and just didn’t love them enough. You do have to kneel at Catholic weddings.

So the search continued, I tried Macy’s, because I’m trying to save…

Miss Frozen Yogurt, Dallas Age and Occupation: 28, Special Projects Coordinator Fiance's Age and Occupation: 26, Equity Trader Engagement Date: March 19, 2009 Wedding Date: April 2010 Venue: Marie Gabrielle, Dallas About Me: I was born and raised in Texas, and have lived in several of the cities across the state, but I currently reside in Austin. I went to college in Boston and have a special place in my heart for the Northeast. I love reading, shopping, wine, reuniting with college friends that are scattered across the country, reality TV, trying out new recipes, and attempting all the DIY projects that come along with wedding planning. I'm a "bleeding heart, save the world type" and thankfully my job allows me to work on legislation and policy to help out those in need. I met Mr. Frozen Yogurt in a bar, though he doesn't even drink! And now we are planning a modern yet vintage wedding in Dallas while dealing with the trials and tribulations of first time homeownership.

A Little Bling for Your Shoes

November 4th, 2009 @ 3:19 pm by Miss Frozen Yogurt

Okay, so I already have my shoes squared away, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t love looking at shoes and all the little shoe accessories. Shoe accessories? Yep, I found the sweetest shoe clips on Etsy. B Poetic makes these amazing clips to dress up any shoe, and they are super affordable.

Take a look:

And, if you want something with a little more color:

Miss Chick, Houston Age and Occupation: 28, Rights and Reproduction Manager Fiance's Age and Occupation: 29, Computer Programmer Engagement Date: November 15, 2008 Wedding Date: April 2010 Venue: A farm outside of Houston About Me: Mr. Chick and I met almost ten years ago at Baker Blues, a college jazz party. He was attracted to my intensity, and I was mesmerized by his trivia pursuit skills and his dorm furniture adorned with his initials. We've grown more sophisticated through the years, with our love of wine, owning a house together, and parenthood (of a cat), but we have not lost our silliness or childish sense of humor!

Shooz

November 3rd, 2009 @ 3:04 pm by Miss Chick

When I saw Mrs. Penguin’s post on Hey Lady, I was in love!

But after seeing the hefty price tags, I quickly convinced myself that they were not for me. Months later, I find myself referring to them and drooling over their beautiful shoes again! So, I’ve decided even if I can’t afford them, I sure can still blog about them!

Here are my three faves:

It’s a Wonder I Don’t Fall Over

I always thought it’d be so lovely to waltz into a department store and try on a bunch of shoes. What a dream! I rock me some size 2 Converse kicks and am always on the search for shoes in sizes 3 or 4. On a good day I weasel my way into a grown-up size 5. In the winter I stick some Dr. Scholl’s…

Hey Lady Shoegasm

October 21st, 2009 @ 10:30 am by Mrs. Penguin

I was at a wedding last weekend and mentioned to a friend that I’d be heading to New York for Bridal Market, and an old friend told me to look out for Hey Lady shoes by his good friends Jessica and Emily Leung. I asked how I would recognize them, just in case I forgot the company name, and he said, “Trust me, you’ll know…

Pink Plaid Galoshes

October 20th, 2009 @ 12:50 pm by Ms Potato Chips

No doubt about it, today is raining-pouring-old-man-snoring.

It’s a good day to stay inside with a pot of hot coffee and a book.

And a fiance, when he gets home from work.

I wonder if it will rain tomorrow, when we get our engagement shots done. And I don’t much mind, because then I can wear my pink plaid galoshes with my navy blue silk dress. And then…

Fancy Shoes for Cheap

October 20th, 2009 @ 11:32 am by Miss Lamb

Cheap is my favorite adjective for a price. For any of you soon-to-be brides, or for anyone who's going to attend any sort of party, or for anyone who wants to have a killer pair of shoes for a party they may get invited to, pay attention. I’m going to tell you how I landed my pretty shoes.

Step 1: Buy a lovely, but plain pair of shoes for cheap. You can scout eBay (where I found mine), Etsy, discount stores, etc. Here are some finds that I dug up in about 30 seconds:

Miss Rainbow, Tampa Age and Occupation: 22, Makeup Artist Fiance's Age and Occupation: 25, Electrical Engineer/Programmer Engagement Date: November 27, 2008 Wedding Date: May 2010 Venue: The Gamble Plantation About Me: I'm a quirky (and slightly Type-A) freelance makeup artist who was born in Washington State, raised in Alabama, and now living with my one and only in sunny Florida. I'm fashion and beauty obsessed, and have recently discovered my inner domestic diva extraordinaire. I'm a wannabe chef, decorating addict, and trying desperately to be as crafty as possible---albeit only with a glue gun. I'm hopelessly in love with my fiance, and all things sparkly and feathery. Despite the glittery exterior, I'm a total hippie on the inside. When I'm not making up pretty faces, I love doing what I can to help people, animals, and the environment. Someday the FI and I will change the world, but first we're tackling our modern-vintage-Marie-Antoinette-meets-Alice-in-Wonderland inspired wedding. I just can't wait to be Mrs. Rainbow!

These Shoes Rule.

Let’s get some shoes. Oh my god. Shoes.

Kudos to anyone who got that reference. If you didn’t, you need a Kelly refresher course, stat.

Similar to a large chunk of the female population, I LOVE shoes. There’s just something about them. The shape, the colors, the endless variations of styles, that feeling you get when you see a shoe that you just can’t live without. I…

Ahh, the wonderful Miss Carrie Bradshaw. That girl knows her shoes. And while I long to strut down the aisle in a pair of Manolos (or Louboutins!) on our wedding day, I know that it’s not practical on many levels. First and foremost, it’s just not in our budget. They are so, so beautiful, and I know that if I got them in a color…

Our Heroine Makes a Choice

Vintage Rehearsal Dinner Outfit

September 29th, 2009 @ 5:30 pm by Miss Lamb

I have about 20 pages of “favorited” items in my Etsy account. As I was browsing through them (I do daily to purge those items that have been sold or expired), I pieced together a wonderfully vintage outfit.

I liked it so much, and it seemed so wedding-y, that I thought it would work beautifully for a casual or courthouse wedding. Then I thought, “Why couldn’t…

Don’t Worry, Be Happy

Interestingly enough, being happy is sometimes the exact source of my worry. Call it first child syndrome, people pleasing, or a personality flaw, but whatever you call it, I have it. In my immense desire to please people, especially authority figures, I sacrifice what I think will make me happy.

In my own mind, this sacrifice ultimately will make me happy, because I think that my…

How Shall My Little Hooves Be Shod?

September 25th, 2009 @ 12:00 pm by Miss Lamb

Sometimes, I’m a little self-conscious when I wear high heels. My Lambers loves me in heels, and thinks flats look a little like “grandma shoes”. I too love heels, but I also soar to 5’10″ or above when I slip them on. J-Ram? He rocks me hanging off his arm in my high heel glory like sane Tom Cruise used to rock the less Botoxed…

The Need for Closed-Toed Shoes

September 17th, 2009 @ 3:59 pm by Miss Moonbeam

Long story short; I ran a half marathon at the end of June and now I’m missing half my right big-toenail and half of the left big-toenail is still bruised. When I ran a full marathon my feet were fine, but something about this half just ruined my toenails. And the bummer is that it’s taken 2.5 months for the nails to almost get halfway…
