Decisions to make so I can finally check things off soon! PIP

First, shoes. I've decided to buy two shoes. I will try them out and see which one I like best with my dress. Lol I've come to the realization there's not much else for me to do out here, so I'm ok with buying two. So shoe 1, the white bow shoe on the left in my sig, and shoe 2 a fuschia satin bow flat from Aldo (and on sale woohoo!) I pinned it a while ago so you might have seen it already.

 
Now I just have to buy them today or tomorrow, but I'm excited to have decided something. Cuz that's a pretty big deal for me hahaha!

Decision #2, hairpiece. I found a haircomb I like on Etsy... and while I'm on it, you know what I love about Etsy?? Cheap international shipping!!! Lol. Back to the haircomb, I found one but it's kinda big. Almost 4" long. And I want it to go right at the middle of my half down hairstyle. I'm worried it might be a little too long (horizontally) and you'll see little wing things sticking out from the sides of my head when you look at me hahaha. But I love it because it goes perfectly with the style of my earrings and bracelet. So here it is. 



I like bling, so big is ok. But I don't want it to look SO big that it looks awkward on my head either, you know?

Recently I also saw this one


Literally half the size of the other one, it's 2" something. But it's a little too small for what I wanted. I'd love a middle size between the two. FI says the big one is good, he likes big. But I'm not so sure yet. What you ladies think?

The bigger one makes more of a statement for sure. If you're concerned, could you hold something up to your head that's 4'' long and see if you like the way it looks? Also, where else have you looked? I feel like there have to be a million sellers on Etsy selling bridal jewelry who would do cheaper international shipping.

In fact, I'm going to go look for you

What's the budget for the hair thing? I'm on an Etsy expedition for you.

Hahaha well thanks! I like to stay under the $40 range. The bigger one is $38 and the smaller one is $22. I like that

Let me keep looking . . . I don't like the ones I'm seeing but I know I've seen other ones before!

Butterfly I really like that one that you posted!  I think its as big as the first one though, it says its 4 inches by 2.5 inches.    OP I love both pairs of shoes!  They are both cute!  I like both the hair pieces you showed and I bet the first one wont be too big.  Good luck deciding!  I need to find a hair piece and a vail still!

Oo that's very pretty Butterfly! But I worry that haircomb styles like that will look funny if you put it in horizontally.. like this


For some reason I feel they look better placed to the side... or is it just me???

My favorite picture is the last one nati, hair comb and style. I like the look of the comb centered like that, not off to the side. I think that flowers tend to look better off to the side? I just bought a fabric hair flower from etsy and it's 3.5" in diameter which I thought would be a good size. I used a measuring tape to estimate what a 4" flower would look like (there's one that I love that's that big), and it just seemed too big to me.

Yeah I like them centered too ceglare! But it looks like a lot of haircombs are made to go sideways.. I don't know why? Oh well.. the hunt is still on!!
