    Nothing is more glorious then walking up to your door with Three boxes full of shoes on your doorstep! YAY.

    I didn't even care my pedicure is past due and grabbed the first booties I could find to put them on. (Forgive the white)

    First pair is Michael Kors - Niki

    They fit wonderfully, very comfortable. Sexy (Mr. Holiday approved them) Good color, the heels are nice and solid. The shoes are lightweight and have a good balance. I know I can dance in them.

    Second pair are the BCBG - Dante in dark purple suede.  The white booties I was hating, so I went without. They are comfortable, high heel, but I love the little punk details on the front.  I am worried about them catching on the Lace and Tulle on the bottom of my dress. Decent balance, mid-weight. The cut of the shoes is fine nothing overly special. The platform on the bottom was lined with purple suede and it's not extremely balanced but I can walk in them, maybe not to dance in.

    Third pair are the Linea Paolo - Admired.  They were the cheapest looking of the bunch, but still really pretty. They didn't fit fabulously and were comfortable but not a very good balance. Mr. Holiday didn't like them nearly as much.  Solid heels, and I could do a sprint in them (yes I run in the heels to see if I can keep them) but I doubt they will be kept.

    Fourth pair (saved the Best for Last!) Badgley Mischka - Eavan. I went ahead and got the purple pair.

    First of all, I love the accessories. Cloth bag for the shoes and extra heels (love that and so will my shoe guy!) They were so elegant. Sexy dark purple satin (did NOT photograph well) but then the touch of bling on the heel, wow. I loved them.

    Balance was really superb. I can sprint in them, cut was good on the feet. a little toe cleavage that was classy. I can dance in them, the heels feel really solid, no teetering.  Note that they are very simple (maybe too simple) in the front but they will photograph well on the wedding day (rings on the heel, etc)

    I believe these are the shoes I'm going to get. I really liked them, they were comfortable, fun. Great to dance in.

    I don't think pictures need to be approved but rather resized.  Google - resize my pictures.

    Thanks for the reviews!  You definitely pushed me off the fence and I just ordered the Badgley Mischka's.  I can't wait to get them!  :)

    The pictures were resized (300x240) on average. I've had problems with this before.

    I'm a big fan of the BM's! The Linea Paolo seems like they would be better for going out and/or clubbing.
