I think I might have to walk on my knees. I know she''s petite, but finding black, satin, non-strappy shoes with a less than 2 inch heel is hard.

Where is Freke??

No kidding, where is FREKE? She''s too cool for us now that she''s all married! I''m making my BM''s wear low heals and I''m going to wear at least 4 inchers. For once I want to stand out!

Damn married women!

The bride will ALWAYS stand out! The army of similarly-dressed women to the side of her are barely noticed!

Ya but I''m the ''not as cute'' Sister so I have a MAJOR complex (my Sister is my MOH). I always got the ''how''s your Sister'' or ''your Sister is hot'' b.s. FML.

Ok, so you have a hot sister. YOU are still hot, IMO. I think you''re freaking adorable and I''d switch with you any day.

2nd... no one notices the BMs! The bride is *always* the most gorgeous in the room!

 

[Lauren8211]

IMO.. that BM dress *cannot* be worn with flats!

I''m in the same boat, WL. I was the fat sister. My sister was skinny (but still busty) until college. Then she got heavier...and so did her boobs. And I''m still the fat sister.

YAY for being the fat sister!

think of it this way - they gain 10 lbs, its noticable. My sister thought i was 40 lbs lighter than i am. I HAVE a butt. she doesnt

Elle, what color heels are you looking for? What material?

Black, Satin, not strappy at all, and plz no pointy toe!

I am VERY surprised she doesn''t want you to wear heels (she just wants her BMs to look ugly

). Flats with that dress would look stupid!

 

[CNOS128]

That''s annoying. A 2.5 inch heels is like standard, and that dress needs heel.

Even this is a 2.25 incher, and it doesn''t look high at all. Can''t you slouch??

Morning, everyone!!!

Squirrly, you crack me up. Missed your humor yesterday!
jcar, congrats to your sister! Every baby is a blessing, no matter the circumstance. Especially since she sounds so thrilled!
HH...nice couch!!!

My officemate''s engagement photos got blogged!!! They''re just stunning...I got teary-eyed. And a little proud of myself, since I picked the photog, lol. **Link removed by Moderator. Per PS rules no links to blogs, personal or professional**

(PS: The ring is 0.7 ctw RB, G, VS2, triple ex from Blue Nile in white gold.)

lol i thought the schedule from h-e-double hockeysicks would subside once i was done with school. next week should be better

on sunday we strat level two of teh shred. on second thought next week, while better schedule-wise, might not leave me physically capable of typing.

(catching up now)

I agreed. It''d look silly without.

I may go just above 2 inch. They still look "shorter" and it''s not like she''d measure them!

the only way flats would look okay is to wear very thin, very low profile sandle/flip flops. and they would have to be shiney. it just would not work.


ugh i have to leave for work soon

 

[winelover23]

Ya I''m the fat Sister too. My Sister is built like a boy. No butt no hips no boobs. Check out my wedding website (so far) and you can scope her out.

I agree with everyone. That dress needs a heel. And 2-2.5" is acceptable. Noticable, but totally acceptable.

jcar...she weighs about the same as me now, but she''s got curves, so I still am the "fat" sister since I have no redeeming physical qualities in terms of my body. Or at least that''s what I''ve been told.

LOL. That''ll be attractive in pictures!

Those are super cute. I''m bookmarking all stuff 2.5 and under. She wont be able to tell between 1.75 or 2.5. I''m certain of it.

Lovely pictures VC!

So in addition to traveling to NYC in Feb, I found out yesterday that I''m also going to AZ in April and Vegas in June.

this may have been asked, but when in june? at that point it''ll be driving distance for me (i think)

 

[Bia]

what do you consider strappy? strappy in front and around the ankle? What if it has straps around the ankle?

yea for work-related conferences. Although they don''t know I''m pregnant yet so they might not make me or want me to go once they know.

Can you travel in June? You''ll be 7-8 months by then, right?

I won''t technically be in my third trimester until the end of June. My EDD is September 21, the conference is the first week of June. Still cutting it close though which is why I think they might have me sit this one out.

found it! well boo, but i might still be en route to CA anyway

 

[Lauren8211]

Ok.. definitely don''t agree that she''s the hotter sister...

You''re both beautiful, but you struck me as very pretty. I''m not kidding. I think you''re gorgeous.

 

[CNOS128]

What about this kitten heel?

Nina''s are a good choice when you want to stay within budget. Plus, they''re cute.

[Lauren8211]

Thank you for all the shoe suggestions. I was getting frustrated!

Umm.. I just noticed that the program that I log into that alerts me that I have work to do was not logged in all morning.
