Wedding shoes blues

I have been OBSESSING about what kind of wedding shoes to get. Maybe I shouldn't say obsessing - more like, getting angry at the shoe industry.

I'm not a girly girl - I can't wear high heels. There are all of these GORGEOUS dress shoes available - in 3"-5" heels. And why are flats so booooooooring?

I've been scouring the internet to find something fun and funky but also something I can wear for a long time and dance in. Every shoe retailer seems to have great shoe pictures, but very little description about heel height, materials, etc. But I definitely recommend www.TheFind.com as a quick way to see what's out there. It's been very helpful, although there were MANY shoes I fell in love with only to find out they were no longer available. So, it's not as up-to-date as I'd like, but it shows you everything out there and you can easily compare prices between vendors.

Eventually, I ended up at my old stand-by, buddy, pal, best friend: www.ShoeBuy.com because when you're shopping online for shoes, free shipping BOTH ways is important. Ladies, make sure you check out the return policy before you buy shoes online!!!!!!!

I now await my very funky red patent platform Mary Janes! I didn't set out trying to look like our cartoon picture, but when I saw these, I figured I'd give them a try. They should have a 2" heel since they're platform style. Hope I can dance in them! My friend Sheila told me to get whatever I want because I won't be wearing them anyway. LOL! She said she took off her wedding shoes and danced barefoot most of the night, and that it doesn't matter how comfy my shoes are because I will most likely take them off. Unless you're wearing sneakers, which is what my other friend Susan did at her wedding! You couldn't even tell because she had a big poofy gown.

Here's what I got, wish me luck:
