Wedding Party

I am going to "kill" my BMs....

Not literally, but figuratively. I am sitting here in complete shock at 3 of them.

Okay, backstory. I love fashion, and unfortunately have a very big obsession with designer shoes (although I cannot always afford them). My mom presented me with my grandmother's sapphire and diamond pendant to wear at my wedding as my "something old." Stina's picture's have made me ridiculously obsessed with having blue shoes and of course I fell in love with the blue Manolo's. I have been trying endlessly to justify the price, but with everything else going on, I just couldn't.

I even went to my boutique owner BM, and SHE even shot the idea down. After that, I just kind of let it drop and figured I shouldn't waste that much money on shoes. Beautiful shoes, but ridiculously expensive.

Tonight my 3 BMs that live together called me to come over to their apartment. They freaking bought me my MANOLO's. I cried and sat there in shock for about 10 minutes. I just was speechless at how much they care about me.

They said they were very appreciative of my mom and I offering to pay for their dresses, so they were going to pay for my shoes!

I know that no one really cares about this but me, but I am floored by their generosity, and I love them dearly. Maybe even more after tonight.

I haven't taken a picture of MINE yet, but this is what they look like.



Sorry I am being an AW, but I am super excited!!!!

  • OMG, that is so exciting! You have amazing friends!

    Side note: When I first read the title of this post, I had "Uh-oh" going through my head, until I saw who posted, then I was like, "WHEW, what a relief!"

  • I know, I love them dearly. I am sure they will do something (non-wedding related) to make me love them a little less in the near future, so they are racking up some points in the meantime...lol.

    In fact, one of them just bought a house, and the other two are moving with her. Part if me thinks they are trying to butter me up to help them move, or for me to make Ricky help them move. But, yeah they are incredible right now.

    I figured my title would have you guys thinking I lost my mind.

  • That's amazing - how thoughtful of your friends! And I love those shoes...considered them as my wedding shoes but figured the 4" was just too much for me to be comfortable. I watched the Sex and the City movie the other day though and half wished I'd gone for it. Enjoy them!
  • I was thinking that TK had another glitch because Mags would NEVER  post something like that. LOL

    That is awesome, and those shoes are AWESOME! Holy Macaroni I am jealous!

  • You have some great friends!

    And I have shoe-envy! Those are fab!
  • Crikey, that's amazing!  I'd be in complete shock too.

    Stina, now I'm jealous you found wedding shoes for $12!  Love a great bargain.
  • Stina- its all your fault I got obsessed with blue shoes...lol

    I know, I was totally blown away by them. They told me since they didn't have to buy dresses, that they wanted something to make me happy. I have 6 BMs and I have such a hard time listening to people whine and complain about them not fulfilling "duites." If you treat them like friends first, then everything will work out okay, but maybe I have healthier friendships to go off of than some of the newbs that pop up...lol.

  • That is truly amazing! I am so happy that you got amazing shoes. And I am sure they'll totally be worn for years!!! I love shoes because unless your feet grow late in life (or they expand while pregnant) you can wear them until they fall apart. 

    And I don't feel so bad for making you obsessed with blue shoes now because now you have AMAZING shoes! Want to send your friends MY way?
