If the Shoe DOESN'T Fit...

If you read my sister's blog, you saw her post about shoes yesterday. I decided that I would post about MY shoes. If you remember, I already posted about my shoes early on in the wedding planning process. However, things have changed since then.

I loved my Nina shoes that I bought, but when I took my dress home, the color just wasn't right. So sadly, I returned them. I did however find another pair that I liked even better (at DSW no less!) and they were the perfect color to match my dress. I am usually in between sizes when it comes to shoes so I went with the smaller size after having visions of me slipping out of them and falling flat on my face half way down the aisle. They weren't uncomfortably small, but they definitely weren't going anywhere either.

Fast forward a few months to my second dress fitting. This was the first time I had worn the shoes for any length of time. I realized they weren't quite as comfortable as I thought they were. I bought some gel inserts to hopefully make them a bit better. The only problem is, with the inserts, my already snug fitting shoes were now a little TOO snug. The solution to my problem? Break them in a bit...so here is how I've been wearing my shoes around the house for the last few weeks:

It's working, they fit much better. But I think I'll leave the socks at home on the actual wedding day.
