Thanks for the fashion advice!

So I’m on the hunt for cute silver shoes to go with that pink dress for Wedding #2. I figure these are the best option because I have to buy silver shoes anyway for Wedding #1 in September. So that takes care of shoes for both weddings.

I found these cute J.Crew sandals (in silver, not gold) selling on Craigslist in Vancouver for $75 (originally $175 US). I think they were recommended by someone who commented on my blog. They were worn once, the seller said. Anyway, she’s out of town for a while, but when she gets back I’ll meet up and try them on. If I like them, I’ll offer $50. And even that’s more than I wanted to spend on shoes … but I really want to be comfortable in them if I’ll be standing around for long periods of time, on more than one occasion.

As for the wrap/pashmina, I’m still torn. I think once I get the dress, I’ll go shopping with a couple of girlfriends and bring it with me to see if I can find something that will go with it.

Kind of on the topic, has anyone tried Spanx before? Do they actually work?
