    Because I just ordered these shoes...

     

    Christian Louboutin Glitter Peep Toes...oh how I love thee...

    I mean... I've been stalking them online for weeks.  They never had my size... then today... click, click... they had my size!  Only one pair!  So... click, click ... and I just spent my tax refund on a pair of glitter shoes.  But I love them...someone please tell me I am not a crazy person.:)

    Oh... I love them.  I've just never spent quite so much money on a pair of shoes before.

    Sorry! I must have hit 'submit' as you were editing your post! I wasn't sure what was wrong with them! Well..if you are feeling really badly..can they be returned? If you really love them and think you're going to wear them after the wedding - keep them!

    Hey if you can't spend up big for wedding shoes then when can you? They are clearly fabulous!

    Ooops, I must have posted before you finished your post too! Sorry about that. 

    And heck, it's your wedding, you'll get loads of wear out of the shoes and you just got some money back from the tax man! I can't think of anything better to spend the money on than a pair of killer heels! :)

    Ok.  Thanks ladies.  I feel so much better now.

    I mean, I know they're just shoes... but right after I clicked "submit" I had a momentary panic.  :)

    Awesome - you can def. wear them again so no worries there. It's like buying a really good bag that you know you can use for years. And just think, everytime you wear them you'll be reminded that you wore them for your wedding day. I think that's cool.

    These are shoes you can wear again, and it's your wedding day, you can splurge. And they are something that will be treasured and worn many times so consider it an investment!

    Gorgeous.  Hey that's what tax refunds are for right?  Not to spend on bills, but on a beautiful pair of CL's!!! hah, I think you made an awesome choice ;) You'll be able to wear those babies again after the wedding so you made a great investment!!

    think of it this way - $800 on a pair of shoes you'll wear many many many times  is way better spent on a pair of $200 "wedding" shoes that you'll only wear once.

    those can be your hot night out/cocktail party/fancy date night/oscar night shoes for years to come!!!!

    (and im a little biased here, i bought the jimmy choo sparkle sling backs last week. my only regret is not having a short gown to show them off!!!!)

    I love those shoes!  If you can afford them, then go for it.  You will definitely wear them again...or you could always sell them to re-coup some of the cost.  You go lady!
