So in the big picture, this is kind of a minor check, but in my shoe-loving brain, it's a BIG one!!! I got my wedding shoes yesterday, and on sale!!!! Here's a pic:

They are Steve Maddens. Originally $150. I stopped by the mall on my way home from work yesterday because I wanted to check out sports bras at VS. Steve Madden is on the way, so I stopped in like I usually do to gawk at all the awesomeness. I had seen this particular shoe many months ago and instantly knew it was THE shoe for my wedding, but the price and some not-so enthusiastic comments from my mom and sis discouraged me from purchasing.
Then yesterday, I spotted them on the 30% off rack and ran right over! I looked at the sticker price, which was marked down to $90... then a sales associate told me that it was 30% off the sticker price, and I was sold!!!! I got my long-coveted, dream wedding shoes for $67 (including tax)!!!! I am so freakin' excited (as if you couldn't tell by all of my obnoxious exclamation points)!
