#128 Wedding Sandals With Some Sparkle

These white & silver sequined sandals from Sense Of Fashion would be ideal wedding flats & coming in at under $50 they are nice on the wedding budget too...

 

Beautiful don't you think?
Your feet would probably thank you after a whole night of dancing too!

It is absolutely amazing the prices some places charge for 'wedding shoes' . As in, white shoes...
In a Melbourne bridal shoe shop that shall remain nameless, I came across white platform thongs which yes, were definitely nothing more than thongs (I'm not not using the term loosely they were made from that cheap foamy stuff), they were presented in a red velvet lined wall recess with their own downlights.... $500. Five. Hundred. Dollars. For thongs!
Unbelievable. But obviously someone is buying these things...

Thank goodness for the ideas & options the internet supplies!

#45 Engaged... Again!

The night before our engagement-ish celebration in Melbourne, my engagement ring met with a fate worse than death...

Well ok not actually worse, but it did die. Violently.

Lucky I'm not superstitious hey?

What followed was a lot of ridiculous behavior by one jewelers who shall remain nameless.

However. Happily - 3 months later - I have some sparkling new bling!

I haven't taken any photos & I'm feeling lazy having been working on long overdue Save the Dates as well as Wedding Favours all night, but I've found this picture from the wonderful wide web that is mightily similar...

As with my first ill fated engagement ring, it is a LOT more traditional than what I would have expected myself to like?

It's very different to my usual taste in jewelery, which is big & chunky whereas this is quite fine.

I did play with the idea of an Amber ring for a while, a big & chunky one, but came to the realisation that although I'm not someone who has been planning their wedding since they were little or in all honesty even believed i would ever get married, I LIKE that it looks like an engagement ring... I also feel oddly guilty for that?

Anyhow.

I feel ever so lucky & I LOVES it!
