Mr. Peep's Wedding Kicks

While I might be slightly obsessed with finding the perfect pair of peep toe shoes to wear for the wedding, Mr. Peep has known since day one what he wanted to wear. Chucks.

I don't know if I was sold on him wearing Connies for the wedding, but as soon as I found out that he could design his own Connies, I knew he needed a pair.

So for Valentine's Day- he spent about half an hour picking and choosing colors and stitching. They came on Friday. He loves them and I actually think they are pretty fantastic too!! In fact, he's persuaded me to let him wear them for both the wedding and the reception.

He got to choose all the colors (of course he's the best fiance- they match the wedding colors!)




And he even got to personalize them with his name:


I think this is pretty cool way to personalize Mr. Peep's outfit, and it was only 60 bucks!! I think we'll have the Groomsmen wear brown Connies too.

Is your Groom adding a little excitement to his outfit??

If I had a million dollars...

I'd buy myself a house.

And these:

But I don't have a million dollars, so I bought these:

Talk about a sale!! What do you think?? They match my something old that I will be wearing (more on that to come). I should get them in the mail any day now; I am a bit worried that they might look a bit cheap??

PS I have decided that with my obsession with peep toe shoes, I need to be a two shoe bride. So I am still on the hunt for a fabulous green peep toe- let me know if you spot one.

PPS I spend a ridiculous amount of time searching for shoes online- I am thinking about doing a Peep Toe Thursday Blog with one designer shoe and one bargain. Please let me know if you'd like for me to make this a series.

Foot Note

To interrupt the regularly scheduled program, I am going to ask you to skip ahead nine months to my latest obsession: SHOES. What a shock!?

So what you don't know is that I have a dress, and it's ivory and satin. More on that later. What you kinda know is that our colors are kelly green and chocolate brown with a touch of light pink mainly for flowers.

That said, I have reached a shoe dilemma. I HEART the latest trend of colored shoes. So much so, I stalked these shoes on jcrew.com from December to July when I bought them for 69.99 on final sale!! Oh yeah, baby!!

I originally thought that they would go fabulous with my dress, but now that I have THE dress. Umm, not so much. But don't you worry, I wear these all the time, and get the very best compliments every time I wear them.

Since buying them, I am having a hard time deciding if I should go with the latest color fashion trend or more traditional. Here are the current shoes I HEART:

Similar to my original loves, but I think the heal is going to be too high for the wedding. Not to mention, I can no longer find them on the j.crew website. UGGG.

These are just BEAUTIFUL!! But again too high and maybe be too pricey. The number looks so good in pounds I couldn't break my hear to convert the price to dollars.

Or these Stuart Weitzman. If only they didn't break the bank.

The perfect heel height, with a peep toe at a great price. But I can't pull the trigger.

These Kate Spades would also be perfect, but the price! UGG.

Obviously, I am looking for a peep toe shoe with a heel less than 3 inches in either green, ivory or brown. And apparently, I am going for something with a bow- who knew? At a reasonable price. Ask me in a few days to define reasonable.

Help!??
