Weddingbee boards

Ok so those of you who have been following my posts about my red shoes know that I really and I mean really wanted the Jeffrey Campbell Charo shoes ....

The only place that they seemed to be available was at nordstrom.com.....checked it ..none in my size...called customer service...they can't locate my size anywhere...so on a whim last Thursday I decided to call a store in Chicago to see if they had them..a girl named Olivia said yea we have them and I'll hold them for you til Saturday. So as I stated in my previous post....I was elated!!

Now that you have the background....my mom and I hop in the car and drive an hour and a half to downtown Chicago...I go in and Olivia is working so I ask her for my shoes so that I can try them on...she goes in the back and come out with......THE WRONG FRIGGIN SHOE!! It was very similar but wasn't it!!

I sit down cuz at this point I can't breath....I just started crying my eyes out...Olivia is like what's wrong....and I'm just like...thats not my shoe, that is not my shoe. I asked you for the Jeffrey Campbell not the Charles David .... it doesn't even sound the same!!! And she was like oh my god I'm so sorry. By this point I'm sobbing my little eyes out. So immediately she begins to try and fix her mistake....she's searching hard for my shoes... at all the stores and online...can't find it. So then she's like we have so many other shoes here....we're gonna find you something that you love. I just looked at her and I was just like ok but inside I wanted to choke the life out of her.....I'm not kidding...like every single breath.

So she's bringing me tons of red shoes.....I mean I had at least 30 shoes boxes in front of me. My mom who is very outspoken like me is like....we need discounts and BIG ONES!! My daughter is very upset...which was not a lie at all. I was beyond devastated. People were crowding around and asking what was wrong.

Needless to say that Olivia devoted much of her afternoon today to me and finding me a shoe that while it wasn't my beloved Jeffrey Campbell Charo..would make my eyes twinkle and make my feet look stunning on my special day.

So while I didn't get these....Jeffrey Campbell Charo $115.00

I did get these Stuart Weitzman Paradise ..,...orginally $395.00 for $100.00 and these Charles David Spicey ...originally $115.00 for $55.00 and not to mention free lunch in the Nordstrom Cafe for me and my mom which was delicious...so I think in the end I came out a winner!!

Hey cre...I got the two above...sorry...I was editing it in.

thanx lillindy...I like....no love them to!!

lmao at KM....yea I had the Charles David in my orginal post and I really liked them before I found the JC shoes so I'm happy that I have them.

@ student....I don't even know yet!!

@ cre...the stuarts are fab arent they?

thanx chachacha

I know right spaneil!!! lol.....I love a good deal...even though I had to suffer a lil heartbreak to get it.

@ Lillindy...that was my moms doing. She spoke to several ppl and the end I came out with two pair of shoes for a heck of a great price.

thanx everyone...its always good to get some moral support.

I'm having a hard time understanding why you were crying over shoes....especially when you ended up getting two fab pairs for a fraction of the price! 

Thankx KLP....gosh I thought it totally read that way....guess it was harder for some to comprehend it tho....

I was crying (not that it has to be justified to anybody) because I really wanted THOSE shoes and had been searching for them for a while now....so to have my hopes up and then have them crushed was a bit much for me...sorry that offends some.

I didn't get the two other shoes for the great price until after the whole incident witht he crying and the crowd.

Get it now? Good. ( I really hate for someone to try and make a fool outta me...it does not sit well with me at all....thanks)

Now

@ miss yap....I didn't mean for it to be funny but I'm glad my unhappiness made you happy.

@ jblinkley1....I got them for that price as a courtesy for the mishap...I'm not a size 6 1/2 but if I were I would definitely sell them to you later. Sorry hun.

@ rofarrell...thanx hun!

Say what you want and feel however you feel....but don't in any way make how I feel and how I express it ...a nice big joke for you. I cried the day my baby sister died to ....feel the need to laugh? I'm just wondering.

Expressing feelings no matter what they are about or where you just happen to be.....is human nature. If more intelligent people realized this and didn't hold their feelings and emotions in...maybe we wouldn't have as much violence in the world. I mean damn...I shed some tears....childish...I don't think so...you act as tho I said I had a fit....rolled around on the floor and pouted. Sorry if me expressing the fact that my feelings were hurt makes me seem childish to you....I really couldn't care less.

hey barista!! thanx for the kind words hun...it started off rough but ended up great so I won in the long run.

Theres been a lot of other times that I have been able to laugh...but this for me was not funny. Its different when I make a mistake, and if the mistake is funny I'll laugh. Actually wedding planning has been a blast and quite easy up until this particular incident. I've gotten everything that I wanted so hopefully nothing else terrible happens.

@ crebre...thanx girl!  you always come thru at the right times with the right things to say.
