My blue not-so-suede shoes

I wish they were suede, but they're just leather. My shoes for the wedding weekend - look out for that flash of pale blue beneath the hem of my dress as I walk down that aisle!

I got the design off a pair that Reese Witherspoon was wearing at the premiere of Sweet Home Alabama. Her shoes were in black velvet - very pretty - but seeing as how I can't wear black shoes at my wedding, I settled for a pale blue - something blue, after all!

The shoe people couldn't replicate the rounded toe or tapered heels in the picture so I compromised with a sharper toe and an old-fashioned heel that is a little more stable for walking - very important since I have a phobia of stumbling. I guess I better get my dress soon so I can practice walking. *gulp*
