i survived!
in Delaware
So I survived the Bridal Shower on Friday night! haha. It was actually very nice. Everyone was great and I remembered all but a few people but I think I played it off nicely! I got everything on my registry that I really really wanted which is amazing!
Today, me and my FMIL went to the Resale Boutique and bought my crinoline. I found one that ties which is perfect since my waist keeps getting thicker!
and... my FMIL introduced me to the most wonderful little jewelry boutique in Centerville!! It's called Crystal's Vintage & Costume Jewelry. My FMIL and her best friend have been telling me about it but I have never gone. and let me just say I can't believe I haven't gone!!! She has the most amazing things and they are cheap!!! I couldn't believe it! I didn't want to leave! hahaha. The owner Crystal was sooo amazing! She didn't have what I was looking for (earrings for the wedding) so she had me e-mail me pics of my dress and she is going to choose some selections of jewelry for me based on my dress and what I want. She's going to e-mail me the options. They are having a 50% off sale Friday and Saturday - I am sooooooo going up there. They had the CUTEST earrings for $5!!! That is cheap enough without the discount!! I have found my new love. hahaha. I will keep you posted on what I decide on and the cost!
well.. I think that's it for now... Tomorrow I will be in search for shoes. I am such a heel whore but due to me being preggers, my body just feels different and heels arent as comfortable anymore! I don't know if I should suck it up and get heels or go for flats... It just wouldn't be me without heels! Maybe I'll get both! Heels for pictures and flats for dancing?? Shoe shopping is torturous for me because I am sooo picky. When I have an idea in my head I will go to every store in North Delaware until I find them! It's actually pretty annoying. Hopefully I luck out sooner than later!

Re: i survived!
You should totally look into crocs. I am dead serious. My feet didn't hurt at all the day of, and I got so many complements on my shoes. When people would hear that they were crocs, their jaws would drop- literally. The nice thing is since they are rubber, when my feet swelled, they moved with them; if you really want heels, they have them too! Not to mention, I paid $25 for mine, and I am guaranteed to wear them again. You cannot beat that, no matter what; even if you spend $40, that's still half of what most "wedding" shoes cost! You can see my shoes in this picture, and I know there are more shoe shots coming my way:
Here are a couple cute ones that you might think about. I only listed ones in the white color, but the nice thing is that you can choose a colored shoe if you wanted! Some shoes come in certain colors but not in others, so make sure to look around the site:
Flats:

I don't remember what your colors are, but you could totally do your "something blue" as your shoes:

In fact, my older sister loved my shoes so much at my wedding that she wants a pair (in black) for herself- she can wear them to events, and look nice, but no one will ever know that they are comfy Crocs (she has foot issues, and shoes are really an issue for her). I am going to get her a pair for Christmas!

What a load of croc! hehehe.
I don't know why I had so many problems with my heels the other day! I'm still in the first trimester.. Although I will say this - some days my back hurts me to the point where I can't bend over or stand up without help! Its crazy - then the next day I will be fine?? weirddddddd.
I went to the website and looked at their heels/wedges.. of course the first pair I saw that I was like oooooo they were $99.00 hahaha. There are some really really cute shoes on there! I don't know if I want them for the wedding though. I need to have some bling!!!! I am definately looking into some of these for the spring summer they even have fur lines ones for winter! Who knew? They do look pretty comfy. I've never worn a pair. Where can you buy them in DE?
Paprika, I was thinking wedges too although I feel they are more a spring/summer shoe
