So excited about my shoes!!! (long story with a happy ending and a PIC)

I knew I wanted platform shoes because I'm only 4'11'(and a 1/2 ), but I also wanted to be comfortable. Well, I have these black platform shoes that I love and wear to weddings and special occasions. Anyway, I was wearing them to my cousin's wedding this weekend and I mentioned to my mom how I love them and wish I could wear them for my wedding because I can dance all night with no pain. I have had these shoes since HS, so I didn't have any hope of finding them. My mom suggested decorating them or something so I could wear them for the wedding, but I wouldn't want to never wear them again.

Well, the brand name is Chinese Laundry, so today I just decided to see if they had a website. The site didn't have the exact shoe, but then I saw a link to vintagelaundry.com (not old shoes, but older styles). Anyway, I searched and found what looked like the same shoe, but instead of black it only comes in White Satin with a Rhinestone buckle!! Perfect for me. I chose the same size as my black shoes and ordered it right away.

I know it's different from most of the other shoes I have seen on here. Although I find them all beautiful, they just don't work for me...comfort-wise or height-wise!

Anyway...I am sooo happy to have found the shoe that's perfect for me! Let's hope that it comes in, fits well, and is as comfy as my old shoes!

YAY Nancy!!!!!! The shoes can make or break your night, so I'm glad you found them. Remember to wear them around inside a week or two before wedding to 'test' them out.
